Awesome ! He looks good and half the battle is them learning to sit still while you do it.

And a battle it was!! Ha. She still gets a little fidgety, but its certainly improved 10 fold in that aspect.

The other issues, not so much, but they have improved slightly too.

That’s great and sorry about saying he ha. It’s a hard thing that’s for sure I was always scared of wrapping them to tight and killing the ears.

They're looking great! I'm glad you got a routine figured out.

I got a routine figured out with the posting, but still need to figure a way to get her to stop bouncing off the walls inside, I seriously am still struggling to do the smallest of tasks with her out ha.

That will pass too but we've all been there, done that.

I certainly hope so! While some things have improved, others have gotten worse. And I'm even getting her way more exercise now too but that doesnt seem to help except the 15 minutes following it.

It will pass my dad’s border collie was a like a 44oz rockstar energy drink which that isn’t even a size lol. And he is 3 now and trust me when he was 6 momths to about 2 years he was hard to tire out like play fetch all day long and work cows and then he’d come in the house and open every door in the house he taught himself how to do that one lol. Now he actually can chill out and relax with out all the exercise.

Wow that’s interesting to hear. Kaiser is my first dog and Doberman and he was/is a total maniac at least until he was 2. The energy just seemed crazy, but if BC are like that too, that’s a bit reassuring. It must the intelligence that makes them so challenging.

I agree I’ve never had a Doberman until 2 years ago. Growing up my family always had border collies and bred them as well. I wasn’t super shocked with the Doberman energy but I’ve literally had a border collie that would spin 360s all the way down are drive way and then turn and run about 35mph through brush for a 1/3 or a mile down the fence and he did it every time we’d drive over to the other gate. We bought him from a 17 section ranch so he was bred to cover and insane amount of ground everyday and still have enough energy to work cows.
