Terriers are are new challenge for me as I have always had border collies up to six at one time, I competed in most activities with them from breed showing to working trials, sadly they have all died of old age now. I have to say I do sometimes miss the obedience of the collies as they never went out of my sight, but saying that the border terriers certainly make up for it in character. :rolleyes:

I spent my childhood with Border Collies so can totally emphasis with you on having the odd pang for the immediate obedience that they specialise in - especially on the days that I'm left standing in the middle of a muddy field watching my two disappear over the horizon chasing something that they really shouldn't .....

Not that I'm complaining you understand as they are delightful little characters. Looking forward to hearing lots more about yours....and maybe admiring a photo or two of them?
