SORRY! OT, but the MINUTE we got the border collie we all went to obidence together! I always wanted to take Beau, but there wasn't a place around here...then one opened up and I was more scared into it than anything because I heard about how border collies can be destructive if not properly trained and exercised. Beau's temperment changed 100% when we brought him, he actually started coming when I called his name, rather than just look at me like "YEA! Right..."
I would really suggest doing it for ANY dog of ANY age! Beau was 6 when we brought him and he learned a lot!
