A Border Collie Day
Meet Tim the Border Collie
This is my happy, friendly, eager-to-please border collie, Tim. Like most border collies, he can be a little neurotic if he doesn't have a job and mental stimulation. Border collies were bred to herd sheep and most have the instinct and desire to work. Since we live in the suburbs and only have a small yard, we don't have any livestock for Tim to herd. So he has created a job for himself defending our yard from squirrels. We do take him for 2 or 3 long walks each day and give him the opportu...

Have You Ever Met a Dog This Unusual?
Meet Eko!
Eko is, by far, the most amazing dog I have ever met. Everywhere he goes, people can't help but comment. The day he made it into our lives, we were set on getting a cat. But who could possibly resist a face like Eko's? Now, four years later, we couldn't imagine our lives without Eko. He is incredibly smart and knows the words treat, outside, walk, and woops. He does really silly things like attacking the pillows when we're out. He's a little neurotic and barks at just about anything. Once h...

Adventures of a Border Collie Living in the Burbs
Meet a Border Collie Named Skye
I'm a border collie or border collie/ Australian Shepherd mix with who knows what else might be thrown in, (only my mom knows for sure) and I'm a good dog, but I get a little bored sometimes. I'd be a great dog in the country on a ranch or a farm where I could run all day long. I was even on my own for awhile and I did just fine until the dog catcher picked me up and took me to the pound. First I was in one pound and then I was transfered to another one. I was fenced inside a little pen for ...

A Border Collie Like No Other
My Favorite Border Collie
Have you ever had a dog that you absolutely adored? One who stood just a bit apart from the rest and held a very special place in your heart? That's how I feel about our dog, Daisy. She's a border collie-mix who's been by my side since the day we met. Even as I write this, though, I feel guilty for favoring any one of my dogs over the others. I know that I've never treated her any differently, but somehow it seems so unfair. The fact is that we have four great dogs, all of whom we love to de...
