He acts like a little puppy but he also did very well in the house when we brought him in for a visit. He knew how to signal to go out for potty breaks, knew sit/lay/shake, explored but didn’t try to destroy everything......He walked well on leash with many off leash dogs running around and was friendly to all, people and dogs. He is smart and is attentive to you-he checked in with me a couple times for guidance/permission. He is SO SWEET.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Borador, a delightful cross between the intelligent Border Collie and the friendly Labrador Retriever, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity. Originating from the desire to blend the best traits of both parents, Boradors typically inherit a medium build, often with the Labrador's strong frame and the Collie's agile grace. Their coat can vary widely in color and texture, from short and dense to medium-length and feathery, usually requiring moderate grooming. Temperamentally, they are known for being loyal, energetic, and highly trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. They thrive in environments where they receive plenty of physical and mental stimulation, making them less suitable for small apartment living unless daily exercise is guaranteed. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of predispositions to conditions seen in their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia or certain eye conditions, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding practices.
