Standing up pics - how much more will I grow?

Tilly wants to know when she will stop growing? I keep wondering how big she will get. She seems to be getting taller than the collies round here & she seems more rounded than slender though she does have masses of side bum fur! If she is colliexlab maybe she will be somewhere in between!
managed to get some standy up pics whilst strolling round with the cat!!

I have to say that she reminds me a lot of a Flat Coat!

Thankyou I like that comment
There is a lady round here with a flat coat as a guide dog & I keep saying Tilly is growing to look like her in many ways. The blind lady had a good old feel of Tilly & thought she was similar too.
So what's the difference between a lab & a retreiver? apart from the look?

You mean a Lab and a Flat Coat, cos' they are both Retrievers? I honestly couldn't say as I have never owned a Flat Coat!

What are Tilly's mannerisms like? Border Collie crosses are almost a dead give away by their mannerisms...the stalking, the intense stare, that crouching thing they do.

I must admit I started to wonder whether she had flat coat in her (or golden retriever, even though she's black).

She's lovely anyway

yes that is what I mean - can't you tell how much I know!!
She does all 3 of above! other things I can think of are she loves to retrieve ball but doesn't like giving it up (so I use 2 balls, she will drop one then) very easy to train & enjoys it, loves to please, loves tracking - in fact loves any attention but will also happily laze about for ages indoors. She hates being disturbed whilst she's resting & she loves other dogs chasing her!

She's always following the cat around - and the cat secretly follows her too when we are not looking. if the cat's had enough she turns round & belts Tilly with her paw but doesn't stick her claws out & Tilly tries to copy & belt her back with hers - she just thinks its a game I'd love to see them lay together! Maybe one day!!
Any other cats in the garden get chased at 100mph!! So the cat doesn't have to bother defending her turf now Tilly does it for her!!
