Borador

Labrador Retriever × Border Collie

Two working backgrounds

A little more about this dog

Prepare to enjoy training as part of daily life. Constructive games and calm household habits matter if the dog inherits strong working interests.

Think ahead: Herding and high engagement needs are possible; this background may demand more involvement than casual walks.

Illustrated puppy and adult examples. Every dog is an individual; mixed dogs can look very different.

What a mixed background can tell you

These are selected named crosses, not every possible combination. Names are informal, and ancestry should be confirmed. Ask about the individual dog’s actual size, coat, routine and personality.
