The other one is an absolute loon. He has energy for days. When he gets real bad, we take him out and run him for about a mile. Full sprint. That will usually slow him down till evening time. Outside of our property he shapes right up. Minds super well, tracks, follows, and obeys. I take him pretty much everywhere I go.
One note, if you get a larger breed, I recommend keeping them intact until at least 2. The bone growth, head size, chest, and over all joint development will be better than the 8-9 week people seem to recommend. I have an A to B comparison and it is pretty significant.Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

How sociable are they with other people and dogs? My niece had a mini Aussie that was a lifetime one person dog. I have a large extended family, two of which have pet allergies. That’s the reason for the half poodle requirement. After the Boxer trainable is the other big thing.

Both my Aussies have been taken everywhere since they were little. They are loyal and protecive, but not aggressive.
They do not like to be petted by people they do not know, but they will sit still and let people touch them. Sometimes the younger one ducks his head and backs away.
We have large parties at home and they are fine with people, but will slink off when it gets to much. At night when the house is asleep, I wouldn't want to be a stranger. They can bark very very loud, ruffle up, and stand their ground. My son has learned to make sure he is up if his friends stop by late.
I only have a leash on them so others don't get worried. When they are "working" they never leave my side unless commanded. I had a run in with a real **** once freaking out about my dog not on a leash. He was yelling at me while his toddler ran into the middle of a bike race. My dog just stared at him, same as I did. I will guarantee both of them behave and mind better than 90% of the kids I see. Sit, stay, and come. The older one has waited for 45 minutes at a rodeo while I was working in the arena and helping a friend. He never moved, even as horses, dogs, tractors, and people wandered by. The younger one is good for about 3 minutes tops.
We were at a farmers market and Cruz was sitting by my wife. A lady walked up behind us with a younger german shepherd. Cruz sat there with his goofy smile he always has. Suddenly the German Shepherd lunged at my wife from behind. Cruz stepped in front barked once, and and puffed up (no leash). The shepherd proceeded to spin around and drag the owner around in a circle before she could get it under control. She started to yell at Cruz, my wife, and myself. The lady whose stall we were at told her to knock it off. Said she was the one with the out of control dog who lunged, and Cruz did just what he was supposed to. Said she was lucky Cruz stepped in front because her out of control dog was going to bite someone. My dog didn't chase the Shepard and he didn't bite the shepherd, but he still put it in its place. A few other folks saw it and backed us up. The uppity **** left with her Shepherd all in a huff. Cruz went back to sitting with his goofy smile.
Mine have zero prey drive. They don't chase other dogs, animals, cats, etc. They love to play and "herd" things, but don't chase.Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

Mine is a lazy little turd half the time and a hyperactive crack addict the other half. Very good dog though and smart as heck.

I had a Merle Aussie named Tige as a kid when I joined the Navy. My uncle had a dairy farm in Oregon and he took the dog when I joined.His milking barn was on one side of a very busy road, his pastures were on the other side with a tunnel underneath.Tige immediately took to herding his cows to and from with very little training.My uncle was never without an Aussie again after that.MMBGE / Large BGE / XL BGE (Craigslist Find) / SF30x80 cabinet trailer - "Ol' Mortimer" / Outdoor kitchen in progress.

Now I teach at an institution where the sticker price for tuition is roughly the cost of a Maserati. The reason I know that is because half the kids come from families who can afford every penny of that sticker price, and some of them even drive around campus… in Maseratis.
All of that is a very long way of explaining that I am fairly well positioned to answer your question as to whether or not science is taught any differently. And the answer is *absolutely not*. We do not teach science here any differently than it is taught 15 miles down the road at the flagship public university, or 30 miles in the other direction at State."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -

Gotta be a low end model Maserati (I hope an annual price comparison) as I saw the MC20 (first spotted in the Exotics thread) Maserati base price $217K in a show room, tricked out at $310K.
Now the Ghibli may be closer to the total annual high end college cost these days as when I was pricing college out 13 years ago all the top schools across the country were within around $2-3K of $50K per year. I know it is much more painful now.
Why the tuition and fees prices have blown up over the past several decades with respect to inflation is a whole different discussion. The feds and their college financing largesse was a major player in the game. At least that's my story. FWIW-Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -

I was picking up honey jars with the 4 runner and rolled the back window down to let the warehouse worker (older gentleman) have his way with my golden, Lou. He was rubbing my dogs face on his, baby talking, swiped his eye boogers, hugs, kisses.... I was standing off to the side and the whole time Lou just stared at me.South of Columbus, Ohio. -
A Texas federal court judge blocked Biden’s student loan forgiveness program today. It was illegal and un-constitutional. Another Biden Cluster Fuvk that failed.
So all the snowflakes that voted Dem (thinking free money/paid off loans) got screwed! Bet they wish they could change their vote today! -

We reached out to the school and the teacher and they tried to explain how giving all our financial information was a good thing, and we could get loans and money to pay for school.
It was a complete information grab and setting our son up for unneeded loans. In the end, they waived the requirement, but it was eye opening that they start preying on highschoolers.Maybe your purpose in life is only to serve as an example for others? - LPL

I've recently been using a small set of machined bars, using them to set depths of my tablesaw blade; I'm at the point where my sense of touch is more accurate than my eyesight.
Doesn't matter how far you put the bit into the collet. You can set the readout to zero at any point just like using "tare" on a digital scale.______________________________________________I love lamp.. -
