Lewis Moon Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I just got the March 2011 issue of Alaska Magazine and the cover shot is of some sprint sled dogs. One is a dead ringer for a Border Collie. Sorry the online version doesn't have the cover up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetlander Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I'm pretty sure they sometimes breed Border Collies to Huskies. And I can imagine some purebred Border Collies would be game to pull sleds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't met one yet that would not when given the chance Occasionally a purebred Border Collie makes it onto a husky team, but BC x husky mixes are much more common. Their intelligence and biddability makes them a good choice for lead dogs, or for producing lead dogs when bred to a husky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
