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).
