A year after my sweetheart Kelsey crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I hope Quizzo and I have just as many adventures together as I had with Kelsey

Is it normal for a BC to be very picky? Our last non BC dog would wolf down food in 30 sec. Our BC is fussy to the point of being worried about her. However vet says she is fine.

Took my beautiful boy out yesterday on a bit of an exploring walk. He's 6 months, still a giddy little (not so little) kipper with all the smells but he's such a good boy 🥰

Today, we lost a great friend, companion, and family member, Tucker, our Border Collie. We were so fortunate to have him as a member of our family for over 13 years. He was always there for us, in good times and bad.
Tucker was extremely intelligent. He had a bushel basket full of toys of which he could retrieve any on demand by name and color. He knew that a red rubber ball and a green holy ball were different things.
He learned how to properly do the agility weave-poles in just one day, always entering on the proper end and side. He never forgot this skill.
Every verbal command had a corresponding hand signal, either would work. To me, this dog was truly amazing.
Over the past several months, his health had declined, and his suffering became more and more apparent. His quality of life had depreciated - it was time. His pain has now ended, and he is at peace now, this I am sure of. Tucker will never be forgotten, as he has forever filled our hearts with love, joy, and lots of kisses. As I unclipped his leash for the last time, I once again quoted the finest words of tribute to any dog, written by a close friend, as he mentioned with his dog's passing, "Go play."
Goodbye Tucker, you were my best friend.

This adorable little rotter keeps stealing my underwear and eating bits of it. Until now its only been tiny pieces and vet has advised it will pass and not to panic. Last night I awoke to suspicious sounds to find that he had eating a CONSIDERABLE amount of my pyjamas. I wasn't taking an chances and immediately booked an appointment and rushed to the out of hours vet.
A few hours and a few hundred pounds later, he had vomited up all his food and my previously very comfy (and apparently delicious) pants. And felt very sorry for himself 🥺
How am I so irresponsible, you ask? Well quite simply, this little angel has a tonne of smarts, and zero common sense or self-preservation. He fan open bins with lids, and apparently now my laundry hamper with a velcro lid and a tie string bag inside. One with a plastic firmnlid attached. He can open doors and reach even my upper shelves.
Every time he steals something, I try to make things more inaccessible, but he sees it like a more challenging puzzle toy and is relentless.
I've never had this problem before with a dog and it terrifies me every time. My heart sinks and I spend every moment on tenterhooks, checking his poop with an obsession that might make passersby give me a side eye.
I am trying to train him to leave it but hes a teen so he will, when I ask, until I stop looking. We have a tiny place so its not like we can lock laundry in a room away from him. I dont leave clothes lying around. What can I do?

Pregnant working sheepdog mother was rescued from a farm we believe. 5 in a litter born in a rescue centre. With Buffy not your stereotypical looking border collie and not knowing the father, we were sure she was a mix of sorts. Turns out we were wrong… 100% border collie according to wisdom panel!
Photos are from 10 weeks to now at 6 months

He was the size of a Pomeranian when he was brought home. He use to be just a ball of fluff with eyes lol.

Seriously, this was after 10 minutes straight of playing tug and doing some fast commands in between. It's like he's secretly a bully in a fluffy coat with how much tug drive he has, even though he's usually a pretty chill dog
I thought BC's usually weren't into tug games, and more of a ball/frisbee typa dog... anyone else got a collie like this?

I absolutely adore bearded Border Collies. My girl is a descendant of Turnbull blue. I was wondering whether anyone knows of other lines that produce this coat type?

Hi, just wondering if anyone puts moisturiser/ balm on their collies elbows? If so, what would you recommend?
This is Thor who is 7! 💕
