The Border Collie

 

The Border Collie is a well balanced, medium-sized dog, displaying grace and agility. He is energetic and alert. The Border collie is reputed for its supreme intelligence, herding instinct, and demonstrated superiority in obedience and tracking trials.

These dogs must have constant stimulation or they may develop behavioral problems, such as household destruction or biting.

Affectionate towards friends, he may be sensibly reserved towards strangers and therefore makes an excellent watchdog. An intensive worker while herding, he is eager to learn and to please, and thrives on human companionship. Border collies are outgoing and friendly and get along with children and other animals.

Height: 17-24 inches
Weight: 30-45 lbs.
Life Span: 12-14 yrs.
