at crufts on the inter regional obedience comp, there was a smooth collie working A. it was down as a smooth & didnt have a "rough" coat, BUT it did have a coat,lots of feathering etc. do smooths sometimes through coated dogs???

the dog is called  Sharidon polly flinders

Until a few years ago, the Kennel Club used to allow Roughs and Smooths to be mated together.  I believe that occasionally you now get a 'longer coated smooth' in Smooth litters!  Just goes to show the need for truly knowing your dogs pedigree a LONG way back before breeding!

Definitely a Smooth I know the owner :)

tell her ,her dog is lovely & worked really well!

Will do, she's judging a show I'm entered for soon so I'll tell her just before I work my round I need all the help I can get!!! :D
