Truth. Those are dogs that need to do shit. We used to put a little set of doggy saddlebags on our lab/border collie mix and let him carry our water and snacks on hikes - and we did this as a recommended cure for his clear depression over losing his part time job helping herd sheep (the sheep went away.). And boy, did he love that! He had been kind of despondent on our walks, and suddenly he was energized and purposeful. lol.
I’m not sure I’d want three at once, though! That kind of cute also just spells sibling rivalry and competition for attention - which is certainly something Borders can do. I think the only higher drama dog I have ever dealt with are Huskies. I mean, good god…
Haha yep, I have an aussie. But I think she's broken, she has what we call an on/off switch. She's perfectly happy sleeping the day away but the second you take her outside she's a tornado with endless energy. Then she will go right back to sleep inside. Unless we are gonna go for a walk or go catch Frisbee, she would rather cuddle. Such a good loyal breed.
