Likes
Like other Border Collie types Bobby loves the outdoor life. He enjoys being taken on long walks and playing outside. He also likes a lot of praise.
 
Dislikes
Ballons and car horns. He will bark at some strangers.
Further Details 
Booby will need an experienced owner as he can be funny around strangers. He is currently very protective of his owner and her child. 
Type of home this dog 
would suit
 
It will probably take Bobby some time to settle into a new home as he is nervous with strangers. However, he is an intelligent and young dog so he should learn new things quickly. A confident owner should help him overcome his fears.
 
We would like him to go to a new home where there are no children and into a home where he will have company most of the time. He must also go into a home with experienced Border Collie owners. Why?
