>>87234>>87234Dont know a ton of boarder collies, my neighbor has two and he keeps them KENNELED, for 8-10 hours a day but the brother and sister duo have a little bit a room id say 8x10 to fuck around in and they are pretty happy. I have an Aussie Shepherd and he stays inside for around 7 hours a day while i'm at work and he hasnt wrecked anything in a year (he is going on 2 this august.) I crate trained him because i can into dogs a little bit and knew better but for the last 10 months the crate has not been closed, he goes in at night to sleep and during the day when nothing is happening around the house. As far as exercise, i give him on average 1.5 hours of INTENSE ball, daily against the BC's next door and his brother a feisty albeit less athletic golden doodle...
