Because the farmers breeding them already have homes for their puppies before they are ever born, not to mention that you'd bre hard pressed to find a farmer that would pay a pet store price. They are working with trial and error and expanding on what has worked and trashed what has not. Also, when you ask them what kind of dog they have, they will flat out say "he is 1/2 Aussie and 1/2 BC?" They don't call him an Aussome Collie. We really are saying the same thing just from different sides of the issue.
Yes...agreed. We are on the same page. Thank goodness, because now my brain hurts!
