I'm following up on my last review for an (almost) 1-year update. I could not be more pleased with the dog my puppy turned into! She is by far the most intelligent dog I've ever owned and is more like being around a person than a dog. Once again, I highly recommend TN Border collies. I did want to note that there are some challenges that come with a dog that is so intelligent and high energy. I have to take her out to run and play fetch every day for at least 30 minutes to avoid her getting whiny and bored. An hour or more is actually preferred, given she has so much stamina. Make sure you have a yard or at least live an active lifestyle for lots of outside play EVERY DAY. I do not recommend these dogs for people who want a lap dog that lays around all day. Mine is super sweet, but she is more interested in playing or training then cuddling on the couch all day. I've already sent her to a board and train, and she got excellent reviews from the trainer. We're currently working on getting her into some dog frisbee competitions. She also loves going on hikes with me and being on the water (see photo). If you're looking for a good Border Collie breeder, I can't recommend Dan enough.
