The Border Collie is a very hyper and active dog that has to
have a job to do or he will drive you crazy. The Afghan Hound, on the other
hand, can be a more mellow breed. When the two are combined, the Afghan Hound’s
temperament will hopefully temper that of the Border Collie giving you a dog
that is devoted, intelligent, and active but with an off switch; meaning he can
play hard but also take the time to relax in the home. Your dog will need at
least 60 minutes of solid activity to ensure he is able to distress and relax
at home. Long hikes or even running laps around the yard are good ways to keep
your dog active, however, dog sports would be ideal for his type of
personality.
