The BC-L is the original, and largest list, for the general discussion of Border Collies.

Please... NO ADVERTISING LITTERS OR DOGS FOR SALE. "RESCUES FOR ADOPTION" ARE ALWAYS WELCOME.

The rules are simple. No businesses will promote themselves. No flaming each other. You can attack ideas, but not each other. List management frowns on listies telling other listies how to behave, especially when they do it on the list.

Please sign your posts, just your first name is fine, it makes it easier to reply and it's friendlier.

No chain letters please, never forward anything to the list that you've gotten in an email that tells you to send it to others. Those things are all bogus.

As receiving the list in Digest form is an option...it would be considerate to just leave a few lines from the post you are replying to.... not entire posts. Best to leave the lines at the beginning of your post to remind us of the thread.

No off topic jokes please, there are millions of joke lists available to those who want to get them...

Join us, lets talk about our favorite breed.
