sister! We adopted Freyja on Sunday. She's an 8 week old Australian Shepherd/Australian Cattle Dog mix. Can't wait until they are old enough to hike with us .

(17,862 posts)My wife has been providing daytime puppy care for my daughter's 7 month old border collie since they acquired her.
We were fortunate that my old BC is still a puppy at heart. While he can't keep up with the new pup, he does wear her down some. It is amazing how he changes his roughness level of play based upon the size of the dog (careful when she was an 8 week old, all out play now for example). Our BC does the same with children.
Sorry about losing your other dogs.
