I got a new puppy for my birthday that is Monday. YAY!! He’s SO Cute!! He’s 7 weeks old. The tag at the Humane Society said he was an Australian Shepherd but the lady at the desk said he and his brothers look more like Border Collies to her so we’ll see what the vet thinks. My little boy named him Sparky.
Total doll baby! Either way, he is going to be one smart dog, and he will need a “job” or else he will create his own job! My border collie mix’s job was to watch out the window and grumble at the squirrels, and try to keep us all together in one room. He tended to get anxious if we were all in different rooms. Great dogs!!
awww so cute!!! We had a Shetland Collie (he sadly passed away last Jan.) but I loved him so much and so great with the kids… He would herd them and he would kind nip at their heels… he would do me the same way so cute… I miss the little guy… :cheering:
He really is quite smart already. Tries and usually succeeds to make it to the pee pad or go outside. He knows when I open the door and say “Go down the stairs.” to trot on down and do his business. He enjoys my 1-year-old tomorrow Shih Tzu as well.
He does herd my son around in the morning I noticed. When he gets up and starts walking, Sparky is right there on his heels trying to get him to go the way he wants.
