The Border Collie Dog Breed Training Tips
Border collie is one of the best trainable dogs out of all the breeds. They usually perform in obedience, fly ball, Frisbee and agility trials. If you obtain this dog, mere physical exercise will not keep the dog active. They should be given some task to keep their mind as well as body energetic.
Border collie is an extremely energetic dog. He needs open space to exercise and being a working sheep herding dog, he always performs tasks happily. He will get too bored and perhaps destructive when you make him sit in a place. Border Collie Obedience Training is very easy to carry out as the dog is extremely agile and intelligent.
The dog will be able to squat, spring and corner adeptly for the function of driving the disobedient cattle or sheep into line. The Border’s coat should be thick enough so that he can survive in cold days but excessive growth has to be cut.
Border collie obedience training includes grooming the dog with care. The water resistant coat of the dog needs to be brushed every other day. He should not be bathed often as the strips of the coat will lose its protective oils. Brushing will maintain the coat clean and healthy and also you should strengthen the emotional bonding with your pet to keep her healthy.
Border collie obedience training is not much difficult when compared to training other dogs since he does well in rally obedience, sheep herding trials and agility. Also, because of his medium size and higher intelligence level, he can be trained as rescue and search dogs. Normally, these dogs display stable temperament and they don’t shy away from the people. Those who are into Border collie obedience training will find that the dog is a faithful and loyal friend. He responds eagerly to the commands given by his owner and willingly performs the tasks.
During Border collie obedience training, you need to praise him a lot. Because, lots of praise makes him happy and he will perform excellently. You have to train him to mingle with people right from his young age. Then, there will be no problem in socializing and he will live fine with other dogs and children. When you bring this dog home, you have to pay him lot of attention and should keep him busy with lot of exercise and tasks.
Border collie lives for serving his owner and hence he may not like to lie idle in a corner of the house. Also, you should know that he can be destructive when he gets bored.
If you live in a small house, then you should not get Border collie. He needs lot of space to run and play. Border collie obedience training can be done efficiently only when you have lot of open space and time to train the dog. He always need your constant attention and will become neurotic if ignored. Border collies are normally pretty healthy but may suffer from eye disease, epilepsy, allergies to fleas’ and deafness.

TORTOISE BITES DOGS BALLS

DarwinBot is a surrogate play partner for man’s Best Friend (Engadget)
The problem facing Microsoft developer Jordan Correa and his wife was hardly
an uncommon one. They both have full time jobs (that’s not the problem), but
they also have an adorable dog Darwin that is left alone for about eight hours
each day. Correa decided to keep his pup active and virtually bridged their
physical divide by building his own telepresence robot using Microsoft
Robotics Developer Studio, a Kinect and a pile of other parts. Jordan can
connect to his pup by dialing into the bot via Skype, allowing him to bark
commands, pilot it around the house with an Xbox 360 controller and even play
catch using the integrated Ball Launcher. The Parallax-powered platform can
even dispense treats and autonomously retrieve the ball with a retractable
arm. To see DarwinBot in action check out the video after the break.
