[quote=Anonymous]You’re going to need to find ways to stimulate the pup’s mind as well so that he doesn’t get into trouble. A snuffle mat, lick mats, puzzle toys, the balls attached to suction cups, perhaps one of those gadgets that throws a ball for the dog and the dog drops the ball back into it. Engage your kids in teaching him some easy tricks, like shaking hands. Make sure he has plenty of chew toys. It’s mind boggling that elderly people with mobility issues would adopt a border collie puppy, especially since they’ve owned dogs before. That seems like a rookie mistake. I’m so sorry that you’re going to be the one who has to pay for their mistake. Are they both retired? If so, I don’t understand how weekends are any different than weekdays for them. Maybe they just want to see the dog a little each week and think that taking him on the weekends makes your life easier. See if they could take him two weekdays instead and then your husband can care for the dog on the weekends.[/quote]
