Has anyone heard of Solo the tiger herder? In South Africa he works to herd and keep baby tigers in check. Not only do Border collie’s have an absurd amount of energy but they can be fierce too. Big brother may not want to bully them too much, because the tide may turn once the Siberian tigers reach maturity. Read more here

Hi,
I just have a question. My neighbors have a border collie that sits
on their front porch all day and walks around the yard by itself
somewhat, this is everyday during the week. They throw a ball 20ft in
the morning for 5 min and not again until after 5pm most nights. The
dog barks as soon as it gets let out the front door and will continue
to bark on and off all day. If we are out with our dogs, the dogs
starts barking with allot of anxiety in its bark (this actually takes
place as well when we do not have our dogs outside playing), the dog
has now run over across the street to our property 2x now in the last
week, the dogs all play together well but of course the dog gets
screamed at for leaving the yard 10-15 min later when the owner who is
home all the time finally decides to check on the dog and yells for
her to come back. Is there a tactful way you can speak to them about?

Good question Kim? I wish more people would be as concerned as you are, but unfortunately, this is not always the case. I simply would approach your
neighbor in a positive way. If you do not have a problem having the dog play outside with your dogs, be open and honest with your neighbor and tell them it is no problem. However, watch out because you do not want to be the responsible party for something happening. Please let me know how
everything pans out.
