Counting With Rum

by Maren Jensen

Summary: Rumble is a border collie that I've had since he was 2 months old. At about 6 months he started developing some "issues" that made him hard to manage in the house. If he got stressed he would chew up anything in sight and reach, including himself. Rumble exhibits stress from separation anxiety as well as any changes in his environment.

Keeping Rumble busy with training and exercise is his best therapy. He LOVES to work and play. Here is a video of his newest trick of counting golf balls. He places his paw on the correct card that corresponds to the number of golf balls. Enjoy!!
