    @pius463 Wait a second... we have a useless pole in the middle of our back yard that might just become a tetherball pole! Genius idea, thank you!

    How much exercise does an ACD actually need? How do you know if they need more?

    Hey guys. Sorry for all the posts; like I've mentioned, I'm a new owner of a 2-year-old ACD and I'm still learning all the ropes. It was a surprise adoption due to tragic circumstances with her previous family, so we got kind of thrown in the deep end, lol. My girl has been home for a little...
