I stand by my advice 100%. Knowing the sex, age, and breed of these two dogs gives ma a lot of insight into what their motivation is and into what is likely to work for them. Without being able to watch this situation in person, I can still get a good picture of what is going on. Breed is not just about looks it is about behaviour. Labs ACT like labs, border collies ACT like border collies, but in the case that these breeds are mixed with breeds of similar looks and vastly different instincts, or in the case they may display characteristics not typical of the known half of their breed - such as due to traumatic events in their past, a different approach to managing a happy home may be necessary.
