Joe Anne Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Ok, this is really silly, and a bit funny, :)BUT... I need a really gooood, comeback for my brother in law, who has rough collies, and keeps saying, " our BC's are called Border Collies, because they are borderline collies, not "REAL!" collies! Now I know this is really stupid, and I have held my own with him with factual knowledge about BC's but.....Now don't get me wrong I love my 2 neice doggies to little pieces, they are beautiful, sweet and smart but again,.... there really is NO comparison between the 2 of them together and my " 1 " Border Collie boy alone.. I would just like to see if anyone can give me a good one liner, a good smart a-- remark to say back to him..! Just thought this might be a fun thread!!!! Quote
FishinBC Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Tell him that Collies are ONLY half the name and half the brains! (We had a collie collie when I was a kid, my BC's are way smarter! Quote
Meg's mum Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Tell him they're called Border Collies becausse they have borderline personality disorder so if I were you I'd be very quiet and avoid any sudden movements. Quote
Dixie_Girl Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Tell him that rough collies came out of Border Collies, and it was the back half! Quote
fooshuman Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 "If it's not a Border Collie, it's just a dog!" Used to have a bumper sticker on my old bronco that said that. I bought it from here. http://www.bordercollies.com/ Quote
nancy Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Rough Collies are ssort of roughly collies. On a good day. Quote

Dixie_Girl Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 JoeAnne I know how ya feel! I have a brother and sister-in-law that have two boxers! We are always trading barbs. But secretly, I hate them dang dogs! No training at all! But, I smile and get to say whatever crap I want and they think it all in fun! heh heh,,,,,don't y'all let on now! Quote
Dixie_Girl Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Laurie, now that is a great bumper snicker! Where did you find it? Quote
laurie etc Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Originally posted by Dixie_Girl:Laurie, now that is a great bumper snicker! Where did you find it? I can't remember - saved it off the internet somewhere a while back (I liked it cuz of the red dog)... Oh, and for the one-liner...just tell your collie friends that "In the time it took "Lassie" to go tell someone that Timmy was in the well; a Border Collie would have dialed 911 for back-up, thrown a rope to Timmy, hoisted Timmy out with his teeth, adminstered CPR and served him up a bottle of Coca-Cola and a Moonpie."

Dixie_Girl Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Oh, Laurie, that has to be the best yet! That is the perfect one! Got the Border Collie down pat with that one! Quote
BustopherJones Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 My border Collie is smarter than your dog that's smarter than an honor student. We're talking about real Border Collies; anything else is a Barbie Collie. Quote
Jennifer Glen Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Ahhh, poor rough collies! I still like them and I used to have them, until I grew up. Jenny Quote
Joe Anne Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Posted April 6, 2006 I love em too, actually just being a dog (or any critter), is good enough for me!! I do like the Lassie and Timmy one, that's good. I also really like the " Border Collies everything you have ever heard is true"!!! Yeah buddy! Certainly everything I have heard anyone on these boards say about their BC, I have either experienced/witnessed with my own BC's or BC's in my training classes... Ya gotta love em... they can bring out every emotion I possess, but most of all love and laughter! Quote
