I had Essex since she was about two and a half months. I tried getting her around people and took her little league games, but she is very reserved. She is a great watchdog as she barks at strangers outside rarely the neighbors. When she is at the dog park, she is focused on fence patrol. While she doesn't dominate, very few dogs will mess with her. Essex reminds me of Tatum. Deacon was five months old when he came to live with us. His owners returned him back because of his jumping problems. An elderly parent living with at the house. They have an older calmer collie now. Deacon sometimes forgets his manners when he gets excited still, but is much better. He is outgoing friendly collie. Their favorite time is dog park, which is typically at least an hour.

And for goodness sake, I can handle their feet and trim their toes... something that neither Tatum nor Muffit are liking one bit! We are working with feet and the clicker.

Dogs are pack/family animals just like we are and they need love. :( Very cool you get to live in a rural area and spoil you dog rotten! As it should be. ;) Hi Bonnie.. when I go for walks around the block and see the poor dogs always outside or tied up, breaks my heart.
