Oh, you've seen my taste in dogs. Would I choose the easy-care, smooth coated version when there was an available variety with way, way, way too much coat?

...I like it Rough.

And yes. I do. Have an 8 week old rough collie. He is snoozing under the stairs right now, being mercilessly cute. Give us a week or so to settle in and bond, and then we need to have us a serious sheepdog shindig.
