Border Collie Appreciation Thread!!!!

I would say the same but then I’ve also seen several people say that IF you get the right lines and breeder AND train them properly, they have a great off switch and can chill out and don’t NEED crazy amounts of exercise. Supposedly. IDK. Obviously a lot of them can be INSANE too. but just saying not ALL of them are LOL if you wanted one.

Well....I barely have enough energy for my current low-energy dogs. I can't imagine even the calmest of Border Collies being as much of a couch potato as my dogs are.

I'd want my exact one back. I'm too scared to get one of these crazy hyper ones. Ours would run the goat fence constantly, or we were throwing the tennis ball. She liked to keep busy.

I'm a couch potato dog lover too these days.

I would love a border collie and maybe one day will get one. But id need animals for it to herd or sports for it to do. Every dog can have a off switch, but some days that can be hard as they want to work.

Hmmm trueeeeee lol but I don’t think you necessarily need other animals or sports. Lots of people just do tons of hiking and mental stimulation, etc. lol although I would probably do sports with mine anyways just because.
