Human: I have a border collie and he has a ton of energy all the time. How much exercise does this breed usually need?

Assistant: Border collies are high-energy dogs.  If your dog is playful and wants to run around a lot, you may want to take him for several short walks a day, plus at least one long walk.  If you want to add more activity, you might want to consider taking him to a dog park or putting him on a treadmill or exercise bike to get some extra exercise.  Make sure you take him on enough walks to get him tired so he has a chance to relax, and also make sure you add some extra activity as needed.


Human: I have a border collie and he has a ton of energy all the time. How much exercise does this breed usually need?

Assistant: Border collies need a good amount of exercise! You should definitely take him on long walks or play with him in the yard at least twice a day. They also need physical activity, like swimming or running, to help them stay fit. You might want to think about joining a local dog park or other volunteer activity, or you might want to enroll both you and your dog in a puppy kindergarten class to get them started. This will help you bond with your dog and help him learn basic skills, and it’ll help him get the activity he needs. Be sure you're keeping up with the activity demands for both of you.
