She's doing good overall just much more difficult to train than my last. Leash training has been very difficult. She has taken to off leash and recall training well though. Her basic commands are decent but when she's tired and hungry she gets lippy and stops listening lol

I grew up with cattle dogs, border collies mostly, working dogs on a ranch. I can't imagine trying to leash train them, they just want to go go go 😂
Couple of neighbors have border collies and those things are intense. One is from a working line and has to be run constantly. The other is from a show line and is more chill
My Aussie is from a show and agility line. Every Aussie owner and my vet said I'm lucky because she's very chill comparatively to other Aussies.
I still remember getting out first pair of border collies as a kid. Rounding up cattle went from an hour of frustration and running around, to a few whistles and a few minutes. Amazing animals, any herding breed.
I've always loved watching dogs work. My uncle raised cattle and would run dogs for it and he trained bird dogs to sell. Always amazed me to see them in action. Wish he was still around to get some advice.
