Same here, of the two, it would have to be a Staffie, although was brought up with collies all through my childhood.

Ooooo, gosh that a difficult one! Erm, erm, erm....maybe BC I think, but only just. But that is only if it's one of the less manic ones and has the lazy streak like my colliex, otherwise it would definitely be staffie. Does that answer count?

Staffy every time. I love their smiley expression, their true terrier grit, their absolute love of people, their joy at life and their ability to make me smile

I have to admit I am wary of Collies as pets (due to experience in my childhood) I do not tar all collies the same though and habe met some fantastic ones in brilliant pet homes. I do love to see collies working and think they are an amazing breed but just not for me.

SBT for me. I love bully breeds and my next dog will prob be a deaf Pit Bull, SBT, American Staffordshire Terrier, or American Bulldog.

Borders are a bit too high strung for me, and I am so much more used to the terrier.

Border collies because of their brain and diverse "look".

I'm not a fan of staffies or bull breeds in general, they simply arent my kind of dog temperament or looks wise.

Border collies here.I love their energy, intelligence and looks. A neighbour has taken on a beautiful little BC girl and I have fallen in love with her.

Collie for me - I do a lot of off leading and socialising with other dogs and not all staffies are off lead or social candidates .... plus i like to work my dogs in what they were originally bred - I liek working sheep but wouldn't be so keen on staffie original pursuits
