When we let him out of his room, he runs around and pisses and drools and more stuff, ugh.

I don't understand why people just don't get their pets fixed...I mean, unless you have (good)intentions to breed, a little alteration of the animals sex organs is all that need be to help that god awful behavior, plus training and what not, but training will be easier if you cut their damn balls off, people!

Our dog was one of the most well mannered dogs I've met. And I trained him =] He did like humping stuff though, Plus, he was from working stock. I was told when I was younger a collie from working stock rather than pet stock is better behaved and more responsive to its owner.

I haven't had a male dog in a long time. We mainly get females for some reason. I think its because mom doesn't like them to cock their legs and pee on her plants, hahahahha.

I know, its totally annoying when men are like "Hell no I'm not cuttin my dogs balls off!" They think its some horrible procedure, but really, it's not. It's better for them in the long run.

Though I can no longer remember what I originally thought.

Our Border Collie was intact. My mum had one when they were little and got it done -- became aggresive.

Beth, you're right about the Border Collie stock.
A lot of BC owners on the working stock side will agree with you. Show stock BC's now are bred with tiny heads, longer coats, varying builds. A lot of them have no work drive because so much of their instinct is bred out. Definitely one of those breeds you have to search high, low, and everywhere in between when you're buying one, to be sure you're getting what is right for you.
