How Best Border Collie Club Can Help You
Calmer At Home And In Public
Teaching your collie to do nothing, not to constantly want to play, not to bounce around and bark when you want to watch tv.
Taking our collie on holiday or to the pub is often considered a normal thing to do, many collie owners are denied these simple pleasures because collies demand to be busy.
I can give you better ways for your collie to behave at times when having an off switch would be helpful.
More Confident In New Situations
For many collies being in a strange place, being handled or visiting the groomers and vets can be an overwhelming or scary experience.
I can show you lots of ways to help your collie to feel more confident about these necessary procedures and visits. Helping you to train your collie to understand that these experiences don't need to be so bad.
You will feel better knowing that your collie is less anxious.
Better Fun Together
The simple things in life are important
Going for a walk with your border collie was probably one of your dreams. But all too often they are overwhelmed by other dogs, by noises, by cars, joggers, bikes, you name it
If you want to restore your dream and enjoy walks with your border collie then I have the training to get you there
Spinning, barking and nipping are all dealt with in these lessons
All training is fun and positive
I NEVER USE HARSH METHODS, PAIN OR FEAR
Better Focus On Walks
Our border collies are always looking for something to focus on when they are out and about, all too often it is not us.
Helping your collie to improve their focus and stay connected to you on a walk means much more fun together.
If you have to constantly scan the horizon to check for the next distraction you are not able to relax and enjoy the walk together.
Learning skills and techniques to build your collie's focus on you and less desire to bunk off into the wilderness makes walking together much more fun
Better Control Around Other Animals, Cars Etc
You will be able to learn about why your collie can't seem to help chasing other animals; the cat, deer, and squirrels to name but a few.....and we know there are many things our collies love to chase!
Calmer Around Other Dogs
We have great fun and games ready to help your collie to feel less anxious or excitable when other dogs are around.
It can be super embarrassing when your collie is barking, leaping and lunging at another dog....I have been there too.
Together we can help your collie to change their behaviour when another dog comes on the scene.
You can learn techniques to use to feel confident that you won't be pulled off your feet because your collie will be calmer.

Sheepballs®
Sheepballs® is intended to allow the heritage of the collie to shine through whilst using familiar equipment, easy to master human skills and on occasion small spaces.
The combination of these components makes it an ideal and fun way for us to spend time with our collies.
We aim to give our collie the opportunity to show us their skills, to engage in the activities in the ways that they enjoy most and to use their tactical brains.
This activity gives our collies a real and meaningful way to display their heritage, their skills, and to get that all important Dopamine hit.
The activity is their way to be satisfied both physically and mentally, being able to be a sheepdog is the best feeling in the world for many collies, it’s why they might choose to chase other, less appropriate items too.
