My aunt Jai loves dogs, especially border collies. She is the one we talked to while deciding on a breed of dog, picking out Coal and all our many dog and training questions we have had since Coal joined our family. She was so wonderful and willing to let Coal stay with her while we ran around and did touristy things on our trip.
Coal was in heaven. Sellands have two border collies, Kelso and Andi, and Coal was determined to be their friend. Kelso and Andi weren't too sure about this hyper, eager puppy who was now in their territory. They were very accepting though and let Coal play along with them. Coal was quite selfish and a show-off when they played ball, but lucky for her, Andi and Kelso let her have her way knowing that she is a puppy. There were only a few scuffles between Coal and Andi - two alpha dogs trying to establish domination - but for the most part the two of them got along great. Kelso just ignored Coal and that worked well too.
Kelso and Andi are truly well-trained dogs. We can only hope that someday Coal can be as well behaved as those two amazing girls.
Kelso has the most amazing coat.

I didn't know you took Coal with you, what a fun trip to bring the dog along. Love the video at the end and that picture of all three dogs, gorgeous!
I think you chose well with Coal. Looks like she had a great time making new friends. I am sure Jai and Clay welcomed her [and you] with open arms!
