Q. Can I keep a Border Collie in an upstairs flat?
A. Normally, it's not advisable to keep a border collie in an upstairs flat or apartment but of course, occasionally there is an exception to every rule.
We usually advise people not to keep a dog in an upstairs flat or apartment because it's that much more difficult for the dog to get access to the ouside and this kind of accommodation doesn't usually have its own garden space but if your lifestyle is such that you normally leave the flat regularly and visit open air spaces (even without a dog), then it may be worth considering.
For the dog's sake, you should be very honest with yourself - if you're in any doubt, it's probably best not to do it.
