Cows, apparently, cannot be herded

er writes to the “Rural New Yorker”
complaining that his imported Scotch
collie dogs are too gentle with the
stock. These dogs, he says, are very
bright and intelligent, and would
make good stock dogs if they would
only bite the cows “enough to make
the cows afraid of them.” The dogs
are probably hereditarily disposed not
to bite their charges, collics having
been for generations accustomed to
herd sheep. Their indisposition to at
tack the cows ought to £0 to their
credit, as being genuine collie.
