$ 500.00 border collie for sale Parma

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 find something to do. 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 try to give him the opportunity to run off leash for at least a little while each day to provide him with enough exercise to help him relax. He also has our other dog, Skye, as a companion to play with and to help keep him busy.

Come along to see a typical day in the life of Tim, a border collie living in the burbs.

Border collie puppies for sale from working parents. They have got had their 1st list of shots dewormed, dewclaws removed and vet checked. Dad is ABCA registered.

Questions to Ask Before Buying a Border Collie

Can we afford to get a puppy or older Border Collie?

The first year of any puppy's life is the most expensive. With shots and boosters and spay or neutering and the regular costs of dog food and toys you can see the bills piling up. Adopting an older dog can be expensive too. You still have to deal with things like flea control, and possible health issues later in life.

Do we have time for a Border Collie?

No matter what age the Border Collie breed need attention and training and work. If you have a busy lifestyle that keeps you out of the home a lot, leaving the dog alone, this is not the breed for you. If you are a couch potato that wants a dog to lay down with you, this is not the dog breed for you. If you love to walk and train and play with a dog this is the breed for you!

Do we know or are we willing to learn how to train a Border Collie?

Whether you are adopting a puppy or older dog you need to be able to train the dog. A Border Collie is born to herd. If you don't harness that energy early they will herd people (especially small children) with nips and possibly ankle bites. Ouch! You must be willing to learn how to and follow through with training your Border Collie.
