("Good boy Carl! Now fetch the derivative for f(x)...")

Neat BC. House trained and well mannered. No papers. He's been a small farm dog. He's almost 1yr old so I'm just a little concerned about his ability to adapt. Oh, and I still need to fix my gate and order his subscription to Scientific American.

I have the usual childcare concerns about being away, especially with a border collie. My experience is with labs, goldens, and dalmations. It's been awhile but it's time again.

My main job entails business appointments two or three times a day. The rest of the time I'm at my home office. Will he go nuts alone in a ~100x50ft yard for 1-3 hour stretches?

Whaddya think?
