Here's what the humans have to say about me:
BECKER--OUR "LIFE IS GOOD" PUP!!!! BECKER IS A BEAUTIFUL, 1 1/2 YEAR OLD, 50 POUND, PUREBRED BORDER COLLIE. THE FIRST THING YOU WILL NOTICE WHEN YOU SEE BECKER IS HOW BEAUTIFUL HE TRULY IS. HIS COAT IS "HIGH GLOSS" BLACK ACCENTED WITH GLACIER WHITE HIGHLIGHTS ON HER CHEST, PAWS AND NOSE. IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE BECKER JUST COLLIDED WITH A BIG FLUFFY SNOWBALL!!! HIS COAT IS LONG, FLOWING AND LOOKS LIKE FEATHERS BLOWING IN THE WIND WHEN BECKER MOVES. HIS FACE SPARKLES WITH SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES WE HAVE SEEN. THEY ARE A RICH, COGNAC COLOR WITH A PLAYFUL, INQUISITIVE BUT ALSO GENTLE EXPRESSION. THEY TRULY SEEM TO SPARKLE LIKE A MILLION STARS WHEN BECKER FIRST SEES YOU. THIS PUP'S MARKING ARE SO GORGEOUS HE ACTUALLY LOOKS HAND PAINTED. ALSO BEING FULL GROWN AND ONLY WEIGHING 50 POUNDS HE IS AN IDEAL SIZE PUP. BECKER ALSO HAS A SMOOTH. FLOWING GRACEFUL GAIT AND MOVES WITH A GREAT DEAL OF GRACE AND AGILITY. NOT ONLY A BEAUTIFUL GUY, THERE IS HOWEVER A GREAT DEAL MORE TO BECKER THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE, ALTHOUGH HIS FACE TRULY IS PRETTY!!! THE BORDER COLLIE BREED IS ONE OF THE MOST INTELLIGENT OF BREEDS KNOWN ALSO FOR THEIR ENDURANCE AND SPEED. THEY ARE A HIGHLY VERSATILE BREED POSSESSING THE ABILITY TO CONCENTRATE ON ANY TASK AND JOB GIVEN THEM. BORDER COLLIES ARE DELIGHTFUL AND LOYAL COMPANIONS. THEY ARE A BREED THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, LEARNS EXTREMELY FAST AND DELIGHTS IN PLEASING. THE BORDER COLLIE NEEDS A SENSE OF PURPOSE. THEY ARE DOGS THAT EXCEL IN A VARIETY OF COMPETITIVE CANINE ACTIVITIES. BECKER IS A PUP THAT WOULD FLY THROUGH OBEDIENCE TRAINING THUS COMPLETING THE PACKAGE FOR THE PUP OF A LIFETIME. HE WOULD THRIVE AND NEEDS CONSISTENT TRAINING FROM AN OWNER WHO IS FIRM, CONFIDENT AND CONSISTENT ALL AT THE SAME TIME, SETTING GUIDELINES AND STICKING TO THEM. BECKER TRUE TO THE BORDER COLLIE BREED IS NOT A COUCH POTATO, LAID BACK, NAP ALL DAY KIND OF PUP. THERE ARE TOO MANY FUN PLACES TO GO, TOO MANY THINGS TO DO AND BECKER IS READY TO TAKE THEM ALL IN. HE IS ALSO "MR. PERSONALITY" AND NEVER MEETS A STRANGER. BECKER WOULD ADORE THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF A "LET'S GO" OWNER. BECKER'S TRUE HAPPINESS IS BEING WITH THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE HIM. ALTHOUGH BECKER ADORES EVERYONW HE MEETS HE DOESN'T FEEL THAT HE SOULD HAVE TO SHARE HIS FAMILY WITH ANOTHER DOG, GUESS HE FEELS THAT ONE "STAR" IN THE FAMILY IS ENOUGH. WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH BECKER JUST AS LONG AS HE'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ACTION. TALK ABOUT A GREAT WALKING OR JOGGING BUDDY, THIS PUP IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND LOVES BUT MOST OF ALL NEEDS DAILY EXERCISE. THIS HAPPY PUP WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP AND A THREE MILE WALK OR RUN WOULD BE AS THEY SAY A WALK IN THE PARK FOR OUR STAR ATHLETE. AT DAY'S END AFTER YOU HAVE SPENT THE DAY TAKING LONG WALKS WITH BECKER, RUNNING ERRANDS AND JUST ENJOYING EACH OTHER'S COMPANY WHEN BECKER COMES INTO HIS HOME HE CONTINUES TO SHINE, HOUSE TRAINED WITH BEAUTIFUL MANNERS. HE IS RESPECTFUL OF HIS SURROUNDINGS KNOWING WHAT THINGS ARE HIS TO PLAY WITH AND THINGS TO LEAVE ALONG. WHEN YOU RELAX ON THE SOFA TO READ OR WATCH A MOVIE YOU WILL FIND BECKER CURLED UP AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET. JUST BEING WITH YOU IS BECKER'S TRUE HAPPINESS. AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH BECKER WE FEEL THAT THE PERFECT HOME FOR HER WOULD BE WITH AN ACTIVE GUY OR GIRL, A COUPLE, OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER CHILDREN WHO ARE ON THE GO AND WANT A HAPPY "LET'S GO" COMPANION TO TAKE ALONG. BECKER IS NOT A CITY, CONDO OR SMALL BACK YARD KIND OF PUP. BECKER NEEDS AN OWNER WHO HAD LAND IN A COUNTRY SETTING WITH A BIG FENCED YARD WHERE BECKER COULD SPEND HIS DAYS CHASING BALLS, EXPLORING, RUNNING STRETCHING THOSE GORGEOUS LEGS JUST ENJOYING THE DAY ENJOYING LIFE. THIS POTENTIAL FOR THIS PUP IS HUGE. HE IS A TRUE "OPEN BOOK" SO SMART, AND NEEDS AN OWNER THAT IS WILLING TO TEACH, TRAIN, EXERCISE AND WATCH THIS OUTSTANDING PUP SHINE. IF THE COMPANION YOU ARE HOPING TO ADD TO YOUR LIFE IS ONE THAT IS EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT, HAPPY, ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT EVERY DAY, BEYOND BEAUTIFUL AND A PUP WHO LIVES TO DEVOTE HIS LIFE TO THOSE HE LOVES THEN LOOK NO FURTHER BECKER IS YOUR GUY. ONCE BECKER GIVES HIS FRIENDSHIP AND LOYALTY IT IS GIVEN FOR LIFE!!!! THIS IS ONE OUTSTANDING PUP!!!!
