I see Pointer, not so much coonhound. They do look Border Collie-ish, especially that one with the most black. Wonder if mom was a shorthaired Border, and that is why these pups have short hair, and not the longer BC coat.

Mom was a LH dog, they said....but I personally think they didn't know the sky was blue.

The BC Parent's could have been short...or one could have been...

Either way...I have seen litters out of long haired dogs, with a shorthaired parent, come out all short haired. One of my own dogs, a lovely Golden Ret. Mix, was the ONLY long haired pup in a litter of 12...mom was a lab...dad was Golden Ret. Sooooo...that said...what the previous owner's told you could have been true; not every one is as daft as they seem...
And if mom wasn't the real 'fluffy puffy' type of BC...which she probably wasn't, then an all short haired litter of pups is more likely to happen.
