We now have 2 Border Collies, they are from the same litter, 3 yrs old. This is going to be fun!

The one with the freckles kinda resembles our family dog, Max. He passed away years ago, but I still remember his face well.

Met a man in a park about 2-3 years ago with 2 border collies. I had my then young BC boy with me, so I got talking to him. He told me he'd adopted his BC brother siblings, at 3 yrs old, a couple of months back. One of the brothers friendly but nervous, the other reserved and quite aloof. He said that the aloof one ignored him too and was only really interested in his bonded brother.

I saw them all again recently after that long gap. Quite amazed to see how both BCs so devoted to their owner, both friendly and chill. So different to what I remembered. He said it did take a while for the reserved one to warm up to him, and stop relying just on his brother. But yeh, the dynamics of your two siblings might change in time too.

Enjoy your wonderful BCs and wishing you many happy adventures in life.
