From experience i found that #3 was very stubborn and not that loving, just wanted to chase things aka bird dog. Newfoundlands are very loving sweet dogs but they die young :(. Collies are awesome but they tend to get along better with other collies. Shepherds are awesome dogs and the Australian shep would get along great with your collie! Just beware of getting herded a lot lol. German sheps are so loving and loyal. in the end its still your decision and if you want an old english sheep dog then darnit your going to get one ![:)](https://dogencyclopedia.net/FRAMeWORK/wcf/images/smilies/smile.png.pagespeed.ce.cu0UlvGT3h.png)
