Hi,
Evie is my beloved Border Collie. She is currently 16 weeks old and too smart for her own good. She's my first border collie and I'm so happy with her - she's a delight to have around.
So far, we can sit, drop, rollover, give both paws, sit-up(beg?), stay, ta, come when called, crawl, go on her matt on command and we've been working on spin and bow but we hit a serious brick wall with bow Oh and i forgot about my favourite, she does what I call "heel" (pretty sure the correct term for it is 'finish') where the dog will come to you, go around behind your legs and sit at your left heel. Its very cute.
Oh and then there's the everyday things she knows like to only eat her food once given permission, to not get off of her seat in the car until given permission, to wait for permission to walk outside/inside etc. I also have a nice collection of soft teddies on the floor of the living room which she has kindly left in one piece - she knows her toys are for playing with and mine are not to be touched.
All of her training has been done with positive reinforcement only and we're proud to say that she has had any indoor puppy 'accidents' for a few weeks now so she's somewhat toilet trained too.

Monkey see, monkey do.
