Our almost 2 yr old Border had her first trip to Florida this year. She made up to a UPS delivery guy. He really liked her and gave her a little treat. Brilliant move on his part. Now whenever she sees that brown truck anywhere, she waits expectantly. She's a very quick learner.
We just got a "retriever/shepherd cross", I'm positive he is a Border Collie cross. He's 15 ish weeks, we've had him just less than a week. I am thankful for these videos. It'll help a lot
Loved this I’ll try it tomorrow
Bro is a pro yapper
Hes 2 yrs old... Digs the rug, peas and poops in the even though taken out, barks insanely
My BC was a quiet, peaceful girl. She would roooooo me off when i got home, she was soo happy to see me, full body wag like only a BC can pull off. Lord, how i miss her.
Dogs are such a blessing
I like everything about my border collies I put everything in keeping them active I walk them about 5 hours a day but sometimes I wander who's teaching who
Oh god...yes
How do you handle the collie barking at people while you driving?
He also has a few phobias like school buses, ups, amazon ,postal ,and garbage trucks
Oh no sad to hear that. Sounds like a socialisation issue: fenrircanineleaders.com/blogs/articles/is-socialising-my-puppy-important?_pos=1&_psq=soc&_ss=e&_v=1.0

Thanks so much! Hope our videos help why you decide on if this is the right dog for you!
whats da best food for border colie..from philippines..thanks😊
My BC is fine but the wife is driving me insane .. can you help..
My 7 month old Border Collie barks at night. He sleeps indoors. He gets a lot of attention and exercise during the day but during the night he is set off by numerous sounds and then barks incessantly.
If there’s one thing you have to know about the border collie it’s this: YOU have to help them to transition to switch off time. I did this by rewarding quietness and calmness indoors, producing a long-lasting chew or lucky mat when coming in from a great walk with off-lead play, and-when a pup-recognising that excessive ‘land shark’ puppy nipping was tiredness and reducing stimulation.
The biggest mistake with collies is thinking ‘active/intelligent breed’ means you have to keep them at 100mph mentally and physically all day to tire them out. No! This’ll make them fractious and hyperactive. Absolute bad move.
Dog owners are amazed that I have such a chill collie in the house. But it took work and correcting my mistakes and misconceptions.

I loved border collies until I lived with 2 of them. I ended up hating them and was the whole reason I moved out! The barking was insane!!!
I’d say BC barking is kinda ‘low to intermediate’. Far from the worst offenders-generally not yappers. They tend to bark for reasons. Shouldn’t be allowed to bark excessively.
Hi Will,
Greetings from Glasgow:) One of the most common problem of Border Collie is nipping as it is their nature actually due to herding. If we get a Border Collie as a pet instead of working dog provided that mantal and physical stimulation, how can we prevent nipping our heels especially when they are puppy. Because I believe we need to start training in early age. Can you record a video as this is one of the biggest problem along with digging as I see in all Facebook groups. I'll get my Border Collie puppy in 30 days. That's why I wonder if you can record a video about it.
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! We have a video on one of our sister channels looking at how to stop your puppy biting you: ua-cam.com/video/mZ9D4b88-DQ/v-deo.html
Hope you find this helpful and it's answers your questions!
All puppies nip at heels-badly. Flappy trousers are the worst! There’s a tendency with border collies to overstate herding characteristics: there are lots of herding breeds as family pets where owners do not obsess as much.
My BC pup was a landshark like no pup I’d ever seen. It actually made being with her pretty annoying. My eldest daughter would yelp and flail at the nipping with needle teeth, making it worse. I just upped my puppy toys and left them in strategic locations. Soon I could predict nips and would just shove a toy in her face. Even if I was too slow I would redirect attention from my heel or arm to a toy. Believe it or not, it does subside with consistency-they realise your body is not a chew toy.
What should I do with my puppy, it's winter and I don't know if I should let it stay outside and if I should how long should I leave it outside
Keep it inside if temperature are less than 45°F
Hi. Got 4months old border colie couple weeks ago she s been scared by my neighbour. Now every time then we go for walks she barks at people. Any advices? Tryed fix her behavour by giving treats to move her attention from strangers but she just ignores treats. Sometimes feels that she s scared but most off times it feels like she wants to attack people
Hopefully our video has given you some good tips on how to tackle this kind of behaviour
I have a 4 month old BC too and she does the same thing. She has this fear of strangers…
My collie girl is 5 months she's still not sure about strangers either. She will sniff their hands and then as soon as they try to pet or talk to her she barks and backs away i can usually calm her with a sit command and i say nice . I take her into stores and work with her alot on this but I think some collies just have this trait in them.
My Border Collie (16 months old) has started barking when I speak to other people (neighbours etc). I think she is jealous of the attention I am giving them, but it makes conversation impossible. Any suggestions please?
my girl is lovely most of the time but will occasionally growl when we stroke her, she has snapped at my husbands and daughters hands several times but will then ask to be stroked again and then quite often will do the same thing again. She is 1 yr and 10 months old and was spayed when she was 6 months old. We are currently contacting behaviourists to try and help.
Did you dog ever do any of that as a puppy? I have a 5 month old collie and she sees me as the leader has never snapped or showed teeth to me but has done it to my husband and children as well.
My Collie is driving me insane he barks and bites my hands and anything he can get he's 9 weeks old and I don't know what to do he's a sweet boy when walking and socialising and playing
Hopefully our video has given you some good tips but we have another void looking at this topic too from our main training channel you might find helpful: ua-cam.com/video/uvNuWjhSvD8/v-deo.html
9 weeks?!? Any breed of dog is a crazy land shark at times at 9 weeks. It’s either straightforward puppy play or tiredness.
My question is, how to make my border collie bark when someone's knocking the door? My border collie barely barks, which worries me.
I want a quiet collie. So,unsure. Saw a beautiful puppy. So so energetic.
My girl is very quiet. A few brief barks a day if that. She surprises people with her calmness. As she’s a short haired tricolour some even ask IF she is a BC.
I trained her for calmness. Walks were for play, stimulation, arousal. Home is (generally) a chill zone with long-lasting traditional chews, puzzle toys, movies on the sofa, etc. I’ve seen people ‘hyping’ their collies indoors and saying ‘he’s a mad dog’ because he’s barking and totally wired. It doesn’t have to be like that-they don’t ‘switch off’ unless you help them to.
I like how you explain the why and how is needed in physical training. Just like the Bible says. ..spare the rod, spoil the child. I only had to spank my kids once or twice in their life. And it worked. Just like our valuable, loveable dogs.
We do all of these things. Yet it still happens. For instance if we are in the middle of a wonderful play session and he has the ball in his mouth he will still bark. When we are at the dog park he will bark uncontrollably. Even if he’s playing with other dogs. We look at every situation and we think he’s just a talker. But it’s affecting work and my headaches are going through the roof
operant conditioning is the pillar that modern dog training is anchored to. nothing new at play here, if you want to make a behaviour less likely to happen, you must punish it.
with that said, the critical part is isolating the barking when you use punishment. the dog must understand that it is being punished specifically for the act of barking, and not for any associated behaviours. additionally, you must be firm and consistent. when you punish a behaviour, do not be "nagging". make it clear to the dog that the behaviour leads to very unpleasant consequences *every time*.
now, there are two ways to go about this. you can take the simple and effective route, which is just to straight up target the behaviour and punish it; or, you can teach the dog to bark. when you teach the dog to bark, you are effectively also teaching it to shut up, you just have to put a cue to it. you can then ask the dog to shut up and reward it for doing so. this doesn't get around having to use punishment (remember: we can't reduce the likelihood of an undesirable behaviour with positive reinforcement), but it allows you to tackle the problem of getting it to be quiet by punishing it for disobedience instead of barking, *AND* it allows the dog to understand that it can be rewarded instead. aka giving it the choice between the carrot and the stick.
the punishment will be more effective as it will strengthen the respect it has for everything else you do at least, as opposed to simply being very context specific. once your dog understands the commands, you just perpetually command it to shut up. *wink wink*
ultimately, the reason the dog barks is because it either doesn't know that barking is not okay, and/or there are no negative consequences (or none that outweigh the satisfaction it gets from barking) for indulging in the behaviour. you need to communicate this to the dog, and if you can - it will learn quickly. treat concepts like "being a talker" or that it's "genetic" as white noise. operant conditioning is our anchor for a reason - it works.
lastly, I would stop going to the dog park, that allows your dog to socially learn bad behaviours and to undermine your authority, and instead use that time to work on functional obedience which will do the opposite.
hope this helps, all the best.
If willing to use prong collar, why not an electronic anti-barking collar? After all, owner can't be near enough to correct at every barking occurrence. Furthermore, collar is 100% consistent (timing, threshold and feedback-intensity), where owner'd be lucky to hit 30%.
Hello Tom, I think that is personal preference. If you choose ecollar then that's cool
I want the barking. I picked the dog bc of her bark. Got her home from rescue: no bark. I’m Almost deaf & I need the barking. What now?
Border collies don’t just express themselves by barking. It’s often by body language (including tail) , facial gestures, ear positioning and that “stare”.
Don’t worry… they will teach you want they want lol.
Working border collies do not bark when their are herding. They were bred originally from a dog who quietly worked the sheep. Barking would scare the sheep.
When my brother had our Collie from a rescue place she didn’t bark either. Unfortunately she did used to “double snap” her teeth instead… for everything! My brother trained that out of her. Then she did find her voice and bark.
I think that it is important that you seek help specific to your dog and your circumstances. Are there any deaf charities or groups in your area? They may be able to signpost you.
@@laurarees4223 Yes, some guides say they are barky dogs. I’d say they are well below average barkers. No point barking at sheep or they’d scatter.
BC’s are not incessant yappers unless something has gone wrong.
@@davidsmisc1351 I think it depends on the job. Sheep get it. Humans, however, we aren’t the brightest and need to be told. Or “motivated verbally” 🤣
My dog does not bark. It is very unsettling. Have you ever encountered a dog that simply does not bark.
I have heard of it before. Usually it is the opposite right. Have you found any helpful information about this?
Said a lot without saying anything.
This guy could talk a glass eye to sleep. Speaks lots but doesn't say anything......I'm out.
Prong collars are awful should NEVER be used with a border collie. Aversives don’t work.
Too much talk.. hardly any substance
His dogs are watching: How To Stop Your OWNER From Excessive Talking...
Totally agree. Way too much talk, saying the same thing over and over, then trying to sell something. It's like a door to door salesman.
Stop rambling and get to the point, already! Come on, dude..
