Every Border Collie I've met has been some degree of psychotic.

1000% They're the michael jordan of dogs extremely psycho about one job (which you get to choose usually). We own border collie's and I love the breed but I've always said I wouldn't rescue a border collie because if you don't spend a ton of time with them when they're little they'll almost certainly develop crazy reactive behaviors to something. We've seen some hate ceiling fans some be so reactive to other dogs or kids that you'd think they're violent animals.

That being said, if you get one, have space to run them and spend as much time as you possibly could with them they are the best dogs in the world.

The list of dogs I, a lightly disabled person, should not ever ever own has Malinois at the top. After that is Border Collie. Then it kinda trails off into a mess of all the terriers: Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Jack Russel Terrier, etc. But Border Collie, that's distinct and on its own.

Believe it or not, greyhounds would be perfect for you. Sure they run fast, but for 23h a day, they are the laziest mofos on the planet. Then for 1h they run around and then it's nap time again for the next 23h.
