Good for you.Cindy0721 For the 9 month old you could try a harness and that way if she doesn't like the leash you can make her move and get her used to it more easily without hurting her neck. Just my opinion.
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!
