How do i convince my parents to get me and Border Collie puppy?

I am totally ready for a border collie! I have done research and everything on them. I show responsibility for my rabbit and birds. And I always go exercising outside so that would be good for a border collie. My dad always says that i really need one with me. But he never does anything.... any suggestions on how to finally get one?

Have them sit down and have a little meeting whith them and tell them that your ready for a dog and the responsibility. And that you'll feed her and cean up after her and everything.!

Get a job to pay for the dog. IT can be expensive.

wat i would do is show your parents that you are responsible so i would start a dog walkig buissness thats wat my sis did!

A border collie needs more than just exercise, they need an experienced owner who is going to be able to train them and interact with them to ensure that they remain stimulated and their drives are kept under control. They are certainly not the right do for a novice owner or a young person. Sorry to be harsh but you'd be better off with a smaller dog that's easier to handle.

Hope you have a fenced yard and the dog stays in there. Have had border collies, two of them got ran over chasing a tractor and a car. They are happiest when they can herd something like cows and sheep, the last one that got run over was going to our neighbor's farm every evening and rounding up his milk cows for him, all he had to do is open the gate to the barn. We didn't know that until after she died, and the farmer came to our house and asked what happened to her.

You get a Border Collie when you have the money to train with a reputable sheepdog trainer.

If you find some ads for border collies or a website for a breeder whose dogs are about to have puppies, you could show your parents.Good luck!
