Not sure how Reveille ended up a collie, but given the kind of school we are, doesn't it seem like we should be breeding our own?

We should be adopting and training several rescue dogs every year. The best behaved becomes Rev, the others are given to good homes.

That would get us back closer to the original Rev, as the supply of Italian farmers in the Brazos Valley is too low to assure a dependable supply.

Only if Kathy Ireland from 30 years ago joins the football team.

Why would we breed our own when we quite literally get the pick of the litter of almost any collie in the US? There isn't a breeder alive that wouldn't want the free publicity or to advertise that they supplied A&M's mascot, and that you can have a puppy from the same breeding pair. Price per dog goes from $800 to $8,000 over night. We get to pick the best temperament out of thousands of dogs in return, and that dog lives a better life than most humans. Way better than having to choose from a single litter.
