Border Collie - Back Leg Tricks

Mabel is now 7 and a half months and I thought I would show you her learning some back leg tricks.

go "like" me on facebook for training updates and advice: https://www.facebook.com/ZsianZ facebook is also the best place to ask me questions.




I own all the video and the music is:

Piano Sextet in B-flat major - Ludwig Thuille
Edsith - Mélancolia Dreamin
Tortuga - Combat Circus

Funny trick ;p, but that must be the most pointless trick ever xD, beautiful dog tho :)

Haha, pointless unless you do agility and want to increase rear end awareness! Also can be turned into a go piss kind of joke trick, which is pretty funny if you are as immature as me!! Hehe!

[WolfOfShadows1986]

for me this is a very useful trick not only for back end awareness but becuse i want to teach my little girl to actually pee with a raised leg for marking trees around the property.

we have alot of coyotes around, and being territorial animals they will not intrude on other packs territories. they think there is a pack living here with all the howling and scent marking going on around here. we havent had one on the property in a very long time:)

Wow, this video is made very well!! A great video, Mabel is gorgeous!!

i have been wanting to train my dog to lift his leg for ages! thank you soooooo much :)

I feel pretty much the same about BCs, although the show ones look lovely I like the working ones the best :-) both of mine are from farms and they have that crazy energy and spark that I love so much :-)

[wolfydan121]

lol i know huh, thats why theyre so intelligent. looks arent important to a farm dog, they tried to standardise them and ened up with an inferior breed (show kelpies) that have less working ability :-/ thank god for working kelpies lol

[zsianz1]

they sound so great! just my kind of dogs and how smart to breed for things other than looks! Oh I would be tempted but with two BCs I think I have my hands full for now! haha!

[wolfydan121]

omg, they are absolutelt wonderful, very versatile as you can imagine, however there is no breed standars for the appearance for working kelpies, as their spirit and intelligence is far more important lol. so not all are as good looking as some :-p i was just lucky to get a pretty boy lol :p

if youre interested in getting one, why i can tell you what to look for if you want!
