lol ok there is a book out call the dog enclopedia, now I am sure it would be a good book if they knew there flippen dog breeds! jeeze even the most random people in the street know the differnce between a Border Collie and a Collie. this book has an actual Border collie then severl pages later is shows a picture of a blue merle smooth collie this is the lable "short-haired BORDER COLLIE with blue marbling" :confused:

then they have the rough collie, labled "long-haired Border Collie"
all righty then. they have the colour names all weird too, like they call blue merle "blue marbling" and tri colour "triple coloured" and of coarse everyone knows poodles come in 4 sizes:toy, mini, standerd, and giant :confused: (giant being the same size as a standerd and the standered being halfway between a mini and a standerd lol)

now why was this person allowed to write a book about dogs? :rolleyes:

I find that most books don't know alot...

I got into an argument with a friend of mine when I told her that the breeds in some dog breed book were all messed up. She told me that the book knows more than me, I took offense...and she didn't believe me!! LOL. They put a picture of an Australian shepherd and called it an Australian Kelpie, and they took a Siberian husky and called it an Alaskan malamute. The Sibe/Mal thing is more understandable... But they took a picture of a bob-tail, long haired, flop eared Australian shepherd and called it a kelpie. And apparently the book knows everything. :rolleyes:
