He's doing really well. That picture was taken on his first day with us. At the training field I have now taken the long line off and he is coming back to me nicely. (touch wood)
Thank you for your kind comments. He is gorgeous (beauty is in the eye of the beholder, lol) He's pure bred Prder collie.
My main problem, if you can call it a problem, is grooming! I'm not au fait with grooming/trimming of a border collie, so will have to learn. Any advice welcome.
