My husband showed me a video of a toller screaming today (it was swimming at a lake and really excited) and it was actually quite endearing! We'll have to check out the australian shepherds...that was actually one of the other breeds we had considered :)kagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151847824352762735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6755874687480633913.post-46554525517064617892011-02-03T18:34:52.204-08:002011-02-03T18:34:52.204-08:00Sorry that should say "don't think I woul...Sorry that should say "don't think I would ever get a BMD as they are gigantic"Trishahttp://www.tollerpuppy.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6755874687480633913.post-72474538865123481812011-02-03T18:33:32.694-08:002011-02-03T18:33:32.694-08:00Hi I am a Toller breeder who found your blog as a ...Hi I am a Toller breeder who found your blog as a google alert for the breed I get in my email. Funnily enough, both the breeds you mention are also my favorite! I have 4 Tollers, only 1 screams. They don't *all* do it, and she doesn't do it *all* the time. Screaming is genetic in nature- her mother also screamed, as did her mom's dad. I personally don't think I would ever get wouldn't get a BMD as they are gigantic- not medium sized, shed a lot and DROOL- dried up drool on everything from car seats to pant legs to coffee tables and walls. <br />Have you looked at Australian Shepherds? Kind of a Toller-sized but look a little more like Bernese than a Toller would.<br />Good luck with your search- if you are looking for a breeder, I have puppies due in 7-14 days. www.tollerpuppy.ca<br />TrishaTrishahttp://www.tollerpuppy.canoreply@blogger.com
