Has anyone invented a stuffed teddy or something yet that can't be torn apart by a dog in one brief sitting

You also saw Mad Max growing up?

My dad has a dog like that. Barely 2 years old but looks really old because of the coloring. Do they need more than normal room to run/play/etc than most dogs?

-edit Honestly a cattledog barely fits the higher threshold of my size limit. Don't think there's a lot as rescues though

Reggie likes Mad Max-ing it up on the farm.

They need exercise a few days a week, even if that's just going jogging for a couple miles, or snatching a frisbee out of the air at the dog park. But most importantly they need some sort of mental stimulation every day to make them mentally tired. Reggie has a job on the farm (moving cows, pigs and ducks around) so when he's home, he's normally pretty chilled out and willing to lounge around like a good boy.

Can I work with Reggie or...?

Looks quite a bit bigger than I thought. Guess they just have that smaller dog but thick thing going on

Is he done growing? When do they usually stop? Before 2 ish?

He's about as big as he's going to get. He's 50lbs, pretty lean, about 20 inches tall at the shoulder.

The breeder we got him from is in Maine, and breeds for health, working traits, and personality. Reggie has a really strong herding instinct, and if I walk out into a field and don't pay attention, he just starts bringing cows to me. He also has slightly longer fur than most "show standard" cattle dogges, since the breeder has been selecting for a more "northernized" dogge over the past few generations.

My granddad used to have a fox terrier, who I'd named PJ at the age of Six. We didn't use him for the cattle, but against the rabbits and rats - he'd go down a hole or into a hay bale and drag out one of the buggers. Then he'd adjust his teeth on its neck and shake the poo poo out of it, snapping the neck or piercing an artery.

God drat he was a good dog, that fast little beggar. Most of the time I spent on the farm as a boy was up and down the valley with him.

My colleague's collie would herd his goddamn kids if left unattended. Wee ones wouldn't even notice until they were standing back to back in the middle of the room with the pup circling them like a shark.
