Border Collies herding children is very common and you are definitely not the first person to have to deal with this. Have you tried working with her to stop her from doing it? I don't think you necessarily have to give her up, and if you haven't tried changing her behavior or haven't had success I think it could be advantageous to contact some herding trainers in your area that know how these dogs work and could help you with this. It could be hard work, but I think you could definitely stop her from herding at least your own child. As you know, border collies are extremely intelligent and can be taught what and when is the correct time to do a behavior. It sounds like you love this dog dearly and I know this is a very hard situation for you, so at the least, talking with some herding trainers could ease your mind that if you have to find her a new home, you have at least done all that you could for her. You can start by contacting the Oklahoma Stockdog Association http://www.okstockdog.com/ (your state doesn't have it's own club and this one covers your state) or the United States Border Collie Handlers Association http://www.usbcha.com/index.html or the American Border Collie Association http://www.americanbordercollie.org/ to locate trainers in your area. The Border Collie herding community on the whole is very kind and eager to help the breed. I hope this helps and good luck with your sweet girl!BClove21https://www.blogger.com/profile/15276359386128086949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831934642696128943.post-84113618895440814372014-12-17T12:59:41.245-06:002014-12-17T12:59:41.245-06:00As someone who thought I'd have to give up a d...As someone who thought I'd have to give up a dog I love after a similar situation, I'm sorry. I can't take her, but I'll share her story if I find someone who can. Patricia McConnell's books and blog have helped me a lot and might offer some techniques to cope until she finds a new home. http://www.patriciamcconnell.com/theotherendoftheleash/dogs-and-kids<br />http://www.patriciamcconnell.com/theotherendoftheleash/chase-this-not-thatKOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16602216387243743208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831934642696128943.post-15624927338137160132014-12-16T21:05:49.237-06:002014-12-16T21:05:49.237-06:00this just breaks my heart for you
