I'm sure you got the right dog to,,they compliment each other,,tho you love peyton and she is a good dog, I don't think you want "two" of them )
What Jax lacks in confidence right now, is pretty normal if you ask me,,he's in a totally new environment, home etc, and as you say, he is still settling in. Also what he lacks in confidence he will get from Peyton who is a very confident dog in any situation , he'll pick up on her q's as well..
Again, I think the difference in the learning curve is a couple of things,,he is NOT an aussie, borders ARE more serious, he is a male(I find them doofier than the girlz, not a bad thing) and well, sometimes males are slower))
You got the right dog, and he'll come along nicely I'm sure)
