I am Simon a recently retired person. I have just lost my best friend who has recently left me for another world. I have always had a dog so I am shortly collecting a female lilac border collie from a farm breeder near Carlisle. I have never gone to lengths to train my dogs but with this one I want it fully trained. I particularly want to train it to the whistle.
I do lots of walking in the mountains so I want it trained by the time it is old enough to go.
I pick my dog up on the 30th of November 8 weeks old and I will start her training as soon as possible.
I have bought a dog crate for the first time as I have read on here that they are a great help in house training.
I have a lot of information and books but hope to get lots of help on here.
Thanks
Simon.
