hey! did anyone noe that there are TWO different kinds of B.C's? theres a Valley B.C. (corse hair...but it's Long) and a Mountain B.C. which has Short hair, they use Mountain B.C.'s becuz the hair is shorter and snow doesn't clump on the dog's fur...they use Valley B.C. on farms becuz they don't have to worry about snow clumping! but Valley B.C.'s fur gets mats...well that's all i have to say! =o)

P.S. I have two border collies, one valley named Kayla and one Mountain Border collie named Oreo! hehehe
