    The border collie is also extremely sensitive, and can have their spirit crushed with a hard human. That can also cause behavior issues. They are often misunderstood around other dogs, as they are not interested in them, but more interested in objects (balls, frisbees, sheep, agility, humans). Literally the best canine in the planet!

    Absolutely! I was very stern when I first rescued my border collie. Quickly I realized she did not respond and only shut down when I would treat her like other breeds I've experienced. Only when I exrpressed happiness she would light up and do anything I'd ask her to. She completly changed me into a more positive person and I'm convinced she was an angel sent down to make me a better person.

Border collies always want to please and can read our human emotions so well. I'm sure they pick up the emotional undertext of our voices. They truly are a gift.

    My border collie, Jess, was an amazing dog, with all of the intelligence, energy, playfulness, and loyalty they’re famous for. She was never a barker, and seemed to like everyone, even strangers. One day, when she was about 7, a workman came to the house to do some odd jobs. Jess immediately positioned herself between the man and me, keeping him about 7 feet away from me. She stood stiff, the hair along her back standing straight up, every muscle tense, while a low guttural growl seemed to fill the room. She had never acted like this. Never growled at anyone. Clearly, she sensed something in this man that I didn’t. I believed her. I told the man that I didn’t need the work done any longer, and told him to leave. For a split second it appeared he might argue or move toward me, but Jess’ growl got even more menacing and the man backed out of the house and went away. I never discovered what the problem was, what kind of trouble he might have brought, but since Jess never again behaved like that (and she lived another 10 years) I still believe she knew he had bad intentions and saved us from harm.

    Incredible mind reader. All I have to do is "think" and she understands every thought. Gets me up at 0630 sharp, uses "little girl squeaks". to go out or come in. Barks only used to warn off intruders. Loved to be loved. Took Dixie to obedience training, and she had "sit, stand': "come", "stay", "obstacle course," "sea/saw", "heal", after the first lesson, She simply watched the older border collies :"do their stuff" and when I took her off the leash, she had already mastered the course. Dixie is a "cow girl" with a weight ( 90 pounds - large for some border collies) to stand her authority over cows and rams. Great companion... always ready to go for a walk, a ride, wrestle, play tug of war.

    I had a border collie I got for free at a feed store as a kid. That dog was so damn smart, hardly anything we 'trained' him to do was really trained, he just learned by himself by us engaging with him. He grew old while I was in college and after a few years of him losing his sight and hearing (he caught on to our hand motions as we talked all his life, so he knew what "come here" in the waving motion meant), we eventually put him down due to cancer complications. One of the saddest days of my life. Such a loyal dog and a perfect breed for families who have at least a few acres to roam. Currently I have a german shepherd, another fantastic breed in the herding group. It's not always about the breed, you got to build that connection with dogs and create that bond.

    I handled 2 Borders as Search & Rescue/Cadaver dogs for 22 years. Unlike other breeds that behave as robots, you can watch the Border actually figure out problems. With my first partner, Phantom, I would intentionally use a synonym that I knew he hadn't heard before. He would cock his head thinking then do the action I was speaking about! My second, Scout, alerted on a 1000-year-old human bone secreted inside a file cabinet in an office. RIP both.

    My dog is a lab/shepherd/border collie mix and she is one of the smartest dogs I have ever been around. She learned her name immediately, potty trained herself, and learns basic commands in about 20 minutes. She picks up on everything and is friendly with pretty much everyone, loves kids, loves kitties (she grew up with 3 cats and thinks she's a kitty), and gets along with most dogs. She is the best first dog I could have ever hoped for. Border Collies & Australian Shepherds are beautiful, intelligent, special dogs.

I walk the dog once a day, but it feels more like a run or jog, as the dog doesn't like to walk much. At home, she get herself busy chasing and playing hide and seek with our two cats. She is super social and friendly with everybody, people and pets. Bottom line: you can have a BC in an apartment, as it is not the place, the area, but your lifestyle and surroundings that really matter to the animal. IMHO.

I've had people trying to buy him his whole life. I started at 5k, told one five figures, and he last person to ask was told he couldn't afford him. It was fun, the looks i got. My 9 month, a border collie/austrailian shepherd/hangin tree/blue heeler, is progressing nicely. He's an easy walk, amazing recall, and showing more of his intelligence, daily. While no experience with a pure border collie, I can say that my mixes have been amazing. Intelligent, workable, friendly...amazing dogs.

    I wanted a tricolor and I managed to get a beautiful puppy, but after about a year she lost the brown parts and she was only black and white. The breeder wouldn't take her back so we had her put down just to spite him. I know it's wrong but anyone else would do the same

    First dog I remember was a Border Collie, my auntie's dog, and it was the first dog that ever bit me! It was my fault, I decided that I was smarter than she was and was taught a valuable lesson and, it was one that's stuck with me. Later in life, a mate bred Collies as working dogs and they were characters, all individuals and all smarter than me. A good few ended up as search dogs, SARDA, and performed in incidents like Lockerbie to great praise. Collies have that look about them, they eye you up trying to decide how they can use you to their advantage but, what a breed. Brilliant dogs, loyal as hell and just so much fun. What more can you ask? I could do without the bite on my backside though......

    The Border Collie is not "a direct descendant" of the Australian Shepherd as is claimed in the video. As noted earlier in the video, the breed (Border Collie) is very old. The Australian Shepherd is much more recently developed breed--and yes, a "direct descendant" of the Border Collie.

    My wee Scots mum had a border collie and since she had prior understanding of this great canine from her life growing up,in Scotland pre-war. He came to trust her and from that point on, they became inseperable.....she asking and tasking him and he completing those challenges every waking hour, amazing her......he was her personal "shadow" until the sad day that God recalled him to patrol his mountains......my wee mum was hurt by his leaving her, but quickly knew she'd be reunited with him when her time came, she was relieved......I am very happy that they met and were so close for many years.....! God bless them both...!

    My sister loves border collies, thus she has had 3 so far, only being 23. Her first, was amazing, he was trained and lovely. Her second, Casper, he’s giagantic. His ears prick up, and he is a blue Merle. Her most recent, Lucy, is a red. She has strange colouring and barks. She is still a puppy (but so is casper)none of my sisters dogs bark. Lucy was recently given to our older sister, because they are alike...... somehow? And I have a border collie Celpie cross. Pepper has border collie markings straight ears, slim fur, and a long nose. You can see her breed right away. I’ve lived with border collies my whole life, they are exceptional dogs and yes, are very loyal. Being a family of 9 kids, someone was always home so it was never a problem.

    The Border Collie is NOT always good around children. Mine wanted to herd them and control their crazy antics (according to HIS outlook). Problem is that mothers don't like it when a Border Collie attempts to dominate their children. Cody was fine with kids when he was a pup. But when he matured, a switch went off and he suddenly DIDN'T like kids. He also didn't like it when someone he didn't know LOOKED DIRECTLY INTO HIS EYES. He took it as a threat and came up into their face with a hard nip. People don't like it, but he interpreted their stare as being a CHALLENGE to him. ---- He was STILL an amazing dog and was my BEST FRIEND. He died on 29 Oct 2019. I miss him SO MUCH>
