Well, I had to post up Chase’s tail, too. He is, literally, the black sheep of the family. The black border collie. Our dogs are, I like to say, black and blue. Three smooth blue collies and one mostly black border collie. He has one of those long-flowing tails. And strangely enough, he hardly sheds at all, even with a tail like this.
He doesn’t have any undercoat. He does shed a little bit, but not much at all. The collies have the thick grey undercoat that they blow twice a year, and shed all year long, too.
Chase is a sweetie. So smart, he amazes me. And though you can’t see it here, he has a cute nose, too, and doesn’t really need any rhinoplasty Naples, like us humans do!

What a nice tail. Very bushy and unusual for a border collie. No white tip!
I have some tail photos. Do you have an e-mail address and I will try to send them. My e-mail address is on my blog.
