Uh no. Border Collies are too smart. They are one of the few breeds that can reason, understand changing conditions and adjust their actions accordingly. They don't just protect like a Great Pyrenees or drive like an Old English they are the brains of the operation. They are very difficult to fool.
They may focus on more passive things but they are NEVER lazy. This is one reason they are such a difficult breed and not for many. They are NOT a good "family dog". They do not have an off switch.
The perfect breed for you EOD is a Coton de Tulear :) In fact, I think you may BE one but in a puppy cut.
