What are the exercise requirements of a Border Collie? They enjoy at least one 30 min walk a day, preferably two - though 20 mins of throwing the ball or frisbee is a great alternative if unable to walk.

IMPORTANT INFO RE BORDER COLLIES from BCCNSW website
Selecting a Puppy and General Information
The most important decision to make is whether to select a male or a female Border Collie. This is entirely your choice, however you will need to consider some of the following points first:-
Males are stronger, larger and can be more dominant than females.
Females can be more independent.
Males shed coat usually once a year.
Females shed coat with a season (heat), normally twice a year.
Females come into season about every six months and a season lasts approximately 3 weeks, unless desexed.
A puppy with good temperament should readily come to you. Check the temperament of both parents if possible, but remember the dam can be sometimes protective and the sire may not live with the puppy's breeder. Ensure the puppy has been vaccinated, wormed and has commenced heartworm treatment. Generally, Border Collies are easily trained. Some character variances can be attributed to different breed lines.
Markings and colour should be the last thing to be considered for a pet, even though we all have our preferences. Even for show, markings should not be put above sound construction and temperament. Some breeders and judges like classical markings but this is not required in the Breed Standard. The standard only requires white not to predominate. Ideally, white body patches are undesirable.
Socialising the puppies with people and other dogs is important and most breeders ensure this takes place. Socialising should be followed up by the new owner having visitors handle the puppy in your home. Do not take the puppy out on the streets unless it has had its 12 weeks vaccination and at least a week after this. Household obedience training for the puppy from 3 months of age is recommended.
The Border Collie is an active and intelligent dog, it needs to be included in family activities on a regular basis to prevent boredom and for socialisation.
