Ive read Barbra’s book on dealing with aggression in dogs. She brings up a very important point on how your dog should walk behind you because he respects you and not just because he has no choice . But I still question, in what way do I show my dog I am the pack leader and get him to respect me so that he will not walk in front of me? Would it just be solely through body language?(stepping in front, asserting position as the leader through body language)

So great to see this video and a really lovely surprise to hear Gemma mention Holly by name. Please could you let Gemma know that since we adopted Holly from FOSTBC she has thrived and is doing really well, she has become an absolutely indispensable part of our family. She has such a strong and unique character and is enjoying her very best life with lots of love and outdoors activities every day. Thanks 🐾

Aww, the dogs are so cute! 😍 Great to hear the impact a charity can have!

Amazing video and inside into FOSTBC 💜

As an adopter of a FOSTBC dog I am aware of the immense passion that Barbara and the FOSTBC team have for the rescue dogs. Our first FOSTBC dog had some issues that I needed to continue to work on and with training for me from Barbara he turned into a lovely chilled out dog. I now have a FOSTBC youngster who is a fab little lad. This is a great overview and insight into the work behind the scenes at FOSTBC.

What a lovely film showing how much you do for dogs. On my 3rd dog from you now and can vouch for the lifetime support you give adopters

Really great insight into the FOSTBC. Thank you for taking the time to let us see some of what goes on 😊

There’s no happier being on earth than a border collie at work!!!

I know they have very important jobs to do. However I still think it’s the perfect dog for all occasions!!! Well except attack dog. Border collies don’t understand offensive violence. Hell they barely understand defensive violence!!!

This has made me smile , thank you

They are so ❤

Barbara - after our chat today about my reactive golden retriever and having watched this very infirmative video, where loose lead walking is concerned, how do you decide when to allow your dog to have some sniff time? Is it as a reward for having walked behind you calmly? Luca is a huge sniffer, so it'll be hard at the beginning for him to walk behind and not be able to sniff. So at what point would I release him to sniff before calling him back to the behind position? Thsnks!

Gorgeous video, thank you for posting it. Makes no difference how old the video is. 😎🇦🇺👍🏼

But the dog trainer in this video is Barbara Sykes? I've bought her book about dog agression

Love bob. Reminds me so much of our beautiful max.💕

Best dogs we’ve ever had. Truly amazing border collies.

Ok how do I stop him biting lead and come back as he is deaf please?

Gotta practice this. My poor rescue boy aged about 8, abused physically by his first ‘owner’ (removed from him). and emotionally by his second (several years in a flat, taken out ‘occasionally’ by vehicle to a park where a ball was thrown) and clearly no lead sense. Otherwise he’s such a good boy. Easily scared by any hint of raised voice. Not driven by ‘treats, probably has a degree of hearing loss and utterly obsessed by any ‘ball’. When removed from his second owner (who wanted him ‘put down’), the nurse rescuing him found just one toy at home. A single ball. His previous owners are lucky that I do no not know where they live 😢

He's a lovely lad and I so hope from my heart that you find the right home for him. bC's are a challenge but sooo worth it. I have at hometwo beautiful girls, one 13 and one just gone 14...... They are the last 2 of the 5 we used to have..... Nell, Gwen, Finn, Cariad and Flossie. Cariad and Finn were maternal brother n sister and it's mad but they knew.... , and they loved one another best, Finn left us a year last Christmas and she still misses him. I wish that I could take Bob, he looks like my Cariad, my only B/W. I don't live near to you and it is important that whoever takes him in is prepared to put the time in that he so needs and that you are giving him. Please let us know on KZbin how he gets on.....Bless Him. Much love to Bob and to you with the thanks of a Border Collie Mum and I'm sure so many others. Tanya. Xx

He is a beautiful boy and I would love to make my home his. I have 2elderly lady Border Collies here at home, Cariad is 14 on 7 November and Floss is 13. They are the youngest and only 2 left with us now after having four. Girls and my laddie Finn . My girls were and are a joy and called Nell, Gwen, Cariad n Flossie Moo cos she can be a real moo at times. My laddie Finn was my only boy and he was also a big boy and when he left us was around 5 weeks from being 15. I mis the ones passed but rejoice in the girls I still have for a short while. Cariad has some health issues, heart, stomach and bad arthritis but they both are under a wonderful vet that we have been with for almost 30, yrs so they are monitored and kept comfortable in Cariads case and medicated when necessary...... Cariad is on quite a lot of meds but Floss only takes you move n propalin. I would be interested in seeing Bob and if he could take to me..... He looks a beautiful dog and so gentle and trusting...... Stay safe everyone and my love n scratches to little Bob. Xx

Ive got one, his name is scooby

Who can not fall in love with Border Collie ?

I am getting my collie 8th December, can't wait, he will be then 45 days only, oh my babyq.

I own 2 Borders. They are absolutely the sweetest smartest things. I love my babies so much. They are getting older now and I know I don't have too many years left with them. I never want that day to come but I know it's inevitable.

BEST DOGS EVER!!!

the best friend that anyone can have, the best dog in the world. enough said

I LOVE BORDER COLLIES

The music was pleasant and fitting

Lovely to see how he is able to relax and enjoy his massage.

We don't need your idea of background noise in order to watch something.

If you want a pet, then better buy a good pair of walking boots, he/she will walk the legs off you, best dog in the world, friendly, and mans best friend.

Better than children. Only kidding. But man, there isn’t a better breed, if you can handle them.

Brilliant as always

Powerful words.
