He is indeed...he is as smart as he is beautiful.
He does agility, herding, freestyle, therapy, obedience and rally...everything but field and protection work.

That is a great breed. Smart and beautiful. Of course, I'm an Airedale sort of guy himself! (as you know, I think)
;)
(Anyone...how do you insert a picture? THANKS)

..and like Airedales they are NOT for everyone! I do a lot of meet and greets with him, and spend a fair amount of time giving people all the reasons they do not want a Tervuren!
I sent you a PM on how to insert a picture - let me know if it ever shows up (it seems to be haning in my 'outbox' right now)

Funny. Actually looks like it - but a jail for cuties of course.

Thanks, Loni. Believe it or not, I got it from an Italian Airedale lover who used it on a FB group posting (there are at least 3 Airedale groups). Emailed her and she sent the file to me. Global social networking (and ADT loving) at its most effective.
He's really cute when grown out. I have one (right after the CH) where he looks like an Ewok. But less healthy for him (ear clogging, etc, for the breed - anerobic ears with the flaps).

You don't have to tell me about ears! I thought the poodle had ear issues until I got the lab...drop years, with very heavy ear leather - pretty much makes an air tight seal. Lucky for me the old reliable vinegar/alcohol mix usually does the trick.

I've always liked Terriers, especially Irish Terriers but am considering getting a smooth Collie. Does anyone here have any experience with them (so far as I know, they are identical to Collies except for the coat).

I've worked with several smooths in training. The AKC standard says they should be identical except for coat lenght. I've found the smooths to have a better work ethic and be more trainable than the rough collies. All the ones I've worked with have been excellent dogs. I can' say that about the 'rough' version. I think their over the top popularity during the 'Lassie' years may have ruined the breed for good - I know some rough breeders who are talking about breeding in to smooth lines to get the brains/working drive back.

I agree that our pups are far more intelligent than anyone likes to give them credit for! They are awesome!
