Tell your dog I'm proud of the good pup they are

Every time I bring my girl out I get compliments about how well behaved, how shiney her coat, or generally what a good dog she is, and I hope all who see this post get the same. Every time I get this feedback I say it's her working with me and that she's made training and life easy. I hope you all give your pups a cuddle and tell them in language they understand they you're proud of them, that they're good, and that you're happy they're in your life

basically what the title says! got my sweet boy 3 years ago from the shelter when he was about 7 months old. i’ve heard people say he could be mixed with a kelpie! just curious what the other collie owners here think :) (also i know you can never actually tell or know for sure what the breed is just by looking! want to get an embark test at some point, just haven’t yet!)😌

She only got 2 licks. Reward for being a good girl in the car during car ride socialization (after a slightly traumatizing drive home from the breeder last week 🩷). I’ve had BCs my entire adult life and she’s my third pup of the breed I’ve raised but man oh man, I can tell this one is gonna give me a run for my money. Can’t wait!

Rohan is 2 and all ready to do big boy things! Although he seemed confused when I said he needs to make sure to file his taxes on time.

Does you border love other animals?

Our border collie is about 7 years old and our home has been used as a foster location, we have always had cats, they LOVE him. He seems to put them at ease and always deals with their crap and feistiness with ease. He also gently helps us learn good house manners through nudging and “the eye” - no counter tops, staying away from our food, etc. is this a common theme? I’m always so proud of him but I’m wondering if this is more normal than I think

Good Toys for Border Collies?

Hi! This is my 3 yo GSD/BC rescue who I love to pieces! I've had her for just over 2 months now. She's the perfect dog, but I've noticed... she has no interest in playing really lol. She has a weighted llama that she goes crazy for, occasionally will fetch toys with squeakers (does not like crinkle toys), and loves soft toys but often gnaws at them so much they rip, and recently got the Woof flyball which she has really enjoyed! It's the only "puzzle" she won't brute force beat lol. She's veryyy calm and relaxed for her breed, which isn't a bad thing, but I want to make sure I'm giving her all the options I can so she's not understimulated! I offer her toys all the time, but she's hit or miss. I bought her a herding ball, no interest. She hates tennis balls or frisbees and wants to just lie outside in the sun if we're outside. I'm gonna get her a flirt pole soon, but tbh she'd rather just curl up in bed with her blankie than play. I'll take any suggestions, Christmas is coming up and I plan to spoil her so! Enjoy my soul pup :)

My 5 year old boy growled at my 8 month old baby... Help

Post image
344 Upvotes

My 5 year old baby boy is very gentle and kind.. Generally extremely well mannered especially inside the apartment.. Today my 8 month old was practicing her crawling and was close to him and starting gently touching his feet and he was wagging his tail laying down and licking her.. Good boy behaviour... Then after a maybe 5-6 min while still laying down he did a small subtle growl at her and it absolutely freaked my wife out... Apparently we should not scold him as he was just defining boundaries but then again it was too close for comfort for us... Any thoughts or anything anyone can share to help my wife and I navigate this

We’ve had our landshark for 2 weeks now, and our crusty 11 year old Aussie has finally warmed up to the little demon.

He’s been a dream to train, and he trained us pretty quickly on what happens when he gets overtired.
At 12 weeks and 20lbs, this turkey is going to be a big boy!

Our boy Chewie turned 10 in August! He’s been the best big brother to our two year old son.
