Not an agruement. No worries!
Haha, If I were you I probably would have kept that dog as my own.. just because I feel sad when I see a dog by itself, even if it does know where it is. LOL

I just did a quick google search on prepredominantly white border collies, all of the sites said that they were rare. It surprises me since I've met several...but either way, it says that. 0_o

Well, he's really cute! I have not a clue what he is though, but he looks kinda ACD mixed to me!

I am a member on a Border Collie Rescue group.. many predominantly white BC's wind up in shelters. (just from observation) There are quite a few whites in rescue, but I've never seen them in pictures of litters by reputable breeders.Originally Posted by CagneyDog
Does the AKC recognize predominantly white Border Collies? I know the CKC doesn't even recognize the BORDER COLLIE.

The CKC does not recognize the border collie as it is bred for it's brain & ability rather than for a uniform appearance. CKC (like AKC) is all about physical standardization. This is why most breeds look so much alike while the BC can have so many shapes and forms. Once registered with the CKC or AKC, they have to set what a BC is supposed to look like, right down to oh so important things like how long its nose is in proportion to how wide its head is. To say nothing of height, coat length, colour and ear conformation. Because of course all these things are just soooooo important.
It was thanks to the tremendous effort by the Canadian Border Collie Association that this did not happen. This is why we don't have mass production of barbie collies in Canada (with a some unfortunate exceptions...who register their dogs in the US to get around this). It is also a major reason we don't have as many BCs per capita showing up in shelters.
