Hi guys
Has anyone had experience of trying to train border collie litter siblings, we were silly enough to take litter pups, brother and sister. We have done quite a bit of basic training with them and also walk and train them indivdually and they are quite good. The main problem is that if they see another dog/s nearby they go potty, barking hysterically if on lead or if off chasing after the other dog and the dog pup can be rather agressive, he has been castrated. If we take them out together off lead we have no hope of recalling them if they see another dog. I realise they are still very young but we cannot understand why they should behave like this. We have had collies before and they have never been like this, we are getting to the point we think we will never be able to take them for a walk together in case we meet another dog. Any training tips/thoughts gratefully received. They do go to puppy training classes indivdually where they are not too bad, it is mainly when out and about that this happens.
