Generally, it is not recommended to have children after the age of 7. The lifespan of a Border Collie is about 13 years old. After 7 years old, it is equivalent to a middle-aged and elderly dog. It is best to breed and give birth to a Border Collie after 1 and a half years old. The Border Collie goes from pregnancy to giving birth relatively quickly. During this period, the owner must take good care of the dog.

Tips:

After the Border Collie becomes pregnant, the owner should supplement the dog’s nutrition appropriately and do not feed the dog too much nutritious food. This can lead to overnutrition in the dog and may cause the puppy in the belly to grow too large, which can easily lead to dystocia during delivery, threatening the lives of both the puppy and its mother.
