Hooray for border collies!
I have a very mild mannered border collie, too. In my case Albert doesn't mind waiting at home indoors while I'm at work. He doesn't have an ounce of separation anxiety and gets into no mischief while I'm gone.
Borders are very energetic ... but, unlike other breeds, a well-trained one has a great deal of self control.
Maybe that doesn't help you ... I just want to chime in about my love for the breed.
Congratulations on having such a nice pooch.

Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done, had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908, whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defended me, I told him that it was his duty to defend me even by using violence." - Mahatma Ghandi
