I'm looking for a high quality brush for my rough coat Border Colllie. I've been using the furminator, and in my opinion it's just okay, so I think it's time to start shopping for a new brush. Any recommendations?

Thank you for all of your responses. I think we've finally decided that we're going to add a new BC puppy (female) in the next 2 months. I'm sure I'll have more questions later on. Thanks again!

For the past few months my girlfriend and I have been thinking of getting another Border Collie. We're open to adopting a puppy or rescuing. We have an 18-month old male Border Collie that we've raised since he was 7-weeks old. The same breeder is expecting a new litter (same parents) this month, and she is offering us first choice of a puppy if we're ready. I have a few concerns though. I'm worried that my dog will feel betrayed if we get a new puppy. We're very close, and I don't want to lose that bond. I'm worried that they won't get along. Is my current dog old enough? At 18-months is it okay to add another puppy to the family? I guess I'm just looking for stories from fellow BC owners that have went through similar situations and had the same concerns. Any tips are appreciated!! Thank you!
