Dog Health Questions: Is this a good place to take my future dog for training?

Well, I am learning about Border Collies and I am trying to get everything planned in case I get one. I already know about jobs, mental stimulation, and exercise. Plus, I already found a rescue that I will adopt from if I decide to get a Border Collie. I plan on feeding my Border Collie Blue Buffalo and I am going to ask my step dad if I can help him fence the yard unless he hires someone to do it.

Well, my question is about a dog training place that I found. It's like an hour away from us, so I am asking if it would be good to go to? I'm 15 and I will be the one to take care of the dog (feed, water, exercise, train, etc) so would I be the one to do the training? I'm just aking because he or she would mainly be my dog.

Here's the website. Please check it out and tell me what you think. In my opinion it seems really nice and good. But what do you think?

Thanks! I am definately going to be in agility and I am thinking about also doing obedience, disc, flyball, heel work to music, and rally. Would this be a good place to go?

Looks good to me.......are you sure you are the original TD? Seems you have gained education, respect, common sense and manners.......or was that always there?

Boxer Dog Training Tips and Ideas That Are Critical to Effective Instruction


  • If you desire to do agility I suggest you plan on putting a great obedience foundation on your dog First.

    I would also suggest you get your dog from a reputable breeder. Rescue dogs have issues. This is not a breed I would want unless I KNEW its background.

    Contact your local AKC obedience and agility club for training classes.

  • It looks fine. As I've stated to you before.....you will not earn any brownie points with the DS regulars by ADMITTING being a liar about your age THREE times now. Also, by doing so, you are making yourself look like a five year old.

  • Why not get your "future" dog started herding, what a BC is bred for? You can get a nicely started dog from a reputable sheepdog trainer for around $2000.00. Of course you'll have to continue with lesson at least 2-3 days a week, and they run from $35.00-$50.00 an hour, depending on the trainer.
