I don't know...personally, I don't know you well enough to know things that you like, other than BC stuff which you said your brother won't buy?? If he will, why not a figurine or a gift card to a store that sells them...I'm sure there are a TON of BC things he could buy if he is willing (that is for YOU) like stuffed toys, calenders, figurines, t-shirts, etc etc...

no no see the problem is that he does not know what a border collie IS, I told him Happy and Misty are border collies and he was like "their dogs" he had no idea dogs even came in breeds much less how to recignize a partucualr breed when he see's one, the average person off the street knows about 5 times as much about dogs as my brother knows, and growing up in a house full of dogs I have no idea how he pulled that one off

yes it must be for me, the problem is that dog stuff for me is over his head lol the only thing I can think of is having him take me to a petsore so I can pick stuff out myself, or just give me money lol I cant find any online petstores that offer online gift cards AND ship to canada though..

Maybe you could look at a site like amazon.com where they have nearly everything and create a wishlist. I can't imagine anyone not finding something on there that they like. Pick out several items then print it out for him so he can pick something.

Well you have to eat, how about a gift card to a restaurant or starbucks if you like coffee?

My daughter is VERY difficult to buy for. She has champagne taste in a beer purse, ever since she was a little girl. So, I give her money and she buys what she wants. It works out for both of us.

This year I've got a wonderful surprize for her. My Dad (RB, 1997) had a wedding ring. It was actually a man's opal (his birthstone) ring that he wore as a wedding ring when he got dressed up. I took the opal out of the ring and had it put into a pendant for her. She has absolutely NO idea!!

Me personally, I love gift cards to pet stores (my cats need to eat), cat figurines or money. I DO, however, have my eye on a mirror at Christmas Tree Shops. It's a mirror that looks like a window. There is a silouhette of a cat looking out of it. I hope my kid took the hint when we were there.

Tell him to give you money then. I don't see why he cant give you a gift certificate for a store that you like? And I'm sure he knows what a border collie is, he is just being "cool". and if he doesn't, why can't he ask the people at the store to find him something with a border collie?
