Search the Dog Portrait Galleries for more Border Collies Breed Information - Border Collies The Border Collie is usually recognised by its distinctive black and white coloration although there are several colour types. This graceful breed of herding dog displays agility and stamina. His hard, muscular body has a smooth outline which conveys the impression of effortless movement and endless endurance - characteristics which have made him the world's premier dog for working with sheep. Border collies are energetic, alert, highly intelegent and eager to learn. Loyal and affectionate to friends but sensibly reserved towards strangers. A standard was not approved in Britain until 1976, but the dog has long been valued by farmers in the border region between England and Scotland, hence the name. Border Collie puppies have a short, soft, dense, water-resistant coat that becomes the undercoat in adult dogs. |
