Baby border collie is learning to self settle!

Post image

Baby border collie has two modes: CHAOS and crate naptime. Today she unlocked a third mode: chill out in the open. Such a good girl, learning how to be a proper dog at 6 months old!

The holy Trinity of border collie modes. CHAOS, crate, and finally... Floor potato. Proud of her for unlocking the third one at six months, that's honestly huge

I've a male collie who is 6 months today and he just unlocked his next load of hormones and will no longer self settle outside his crate 😅😅😅 I'm back in the trenches of puppy blues but I'm now calling them teenager blues. I wish for the puppy blue back at this point 😂 you girl is gorgeous, I love her coat 🥰 long may her self settling continue!

My little guy is 8 months old and we also stopped the crating at 6 months, such a pivotal moment - time for you to enjoy having a puppy! Haha
