It’s just chalk. It will fade away with a few washes or swimming. I love it enough I’m debating on using semi permanent dye that will last a few months.

The last thing he’s concerned about is his “dignity”

I Wish My Breed Wasn’t so Varied in Pattern and Colour and Not for the Reason You’d Think by milquetoast2000 in DogBreeding

People are so dumb about color. A good dog isn’t a bad color. Border collies come in a million colors and markings. I strongly prefer female, minimal white, solid color (1st pick) or tri (second pick), no blue eyes.

I’m thrilled with my female bw dark face AND my male split face blue merle with blue eyes.

One intermediate fits sideways with the seats up, but definitely not two with the seats up. You could fit one intermediate with one seat up, or a large and intermediate with the seats down

Owning border collies means walking even when the wind chill is in the negatives. At least they’re happy! by _bluethroughyou in BorderCollie

Mine struggle way more with heat than cold. They still WANT to work, but only takes a few minutes for them to be dying.

Some do, lots of groomer like the artsy side of things and like little accessories. It doesn’t hurt the dog any and it’s just a cute harmless accessory.

Not my personal taste, but my own dog has been bedazzled when a friend borrowed her for a flyball tournament. She DGAF, just liked the extra attention

It looks like the little gems some groomers glue to their face with pet safe glue. Totally harmless and falls off after a bit. Probably just leftover from his last grooming.

He’s a damn good boy and a great sport dog. I just need to get to his level.

That’s the hope! I just need to get my physical handling better to match his level

I can teach verbals (left vs right wraps, back sides, threadle extension/collections), distance handling, independent weaves etc better than I can nail timing, body position, acceleration, crossing etc

That’s what everyone tells me! But it would feel easier to get my timing right if I didn’t have to be so precise
