Years later I can say, publicly and truthfully that getting a border collie was... not my most well thought-out move. Finn wasn't given the consistent training & time most BCs need, and was given too many opportunities to develop wierd BC quirks that we now have to deal with on a daily basis.
But you know what else? This little man has taught me so much about patience, consistency, accepting the bad with the good, and just going with the flow. His endless zest for everything he does is addictive.
I love him to little bits, and he is not allowed to be seven yet. But, here we are.
Happy birthday, you little derp. You're required to have at least seven more.
