Ever wondered if it’s good to let your Border Collie stare at things? In this episode, I dive into the natural instincts of Border Collies and whether it’s healthy to encourage or manage their staring behaviour. Here’s what we cover: Should you allow your Border Collie to stare? Tips for pet dog owners and sport dog owners (even if you don’t have a farm). Why it’s important for working-bred dogs to express their natural abilities. The fine line between healthy instincts and obsessive behaviours. Real-life examples of when staring is okay and when it can cause problems. How to maintain control and balance your dog’s behaviour in different situations (like during walks, playtime, or around livestock).

Laura is an IMDT dog trainer with 15 years of experience in teaching pet dogs and their owners. She has now chosen to specialise in supporting dogs on restricted exercise. There are numerous reasons why daily walks may not suit all dogs or why many dogs might require restricted exercise. These include reactive and nervous dogs, medical conditions, newly rescued dogs, and dogs that become overstimulated by the outside world. It's also crucial to be prepared for the possibility that your dog's daily walks might suddenly need to stop. Laura's new membership programme, Wags Without Walks, is officially launching on 1st July. You can get one month of free access by signing up here. You can also find Laura on social media or visit her website.
