Collie Dog Breed Information
Whomever
has heard the words "Lassie come home!" is familiar with the Collie. A breed
made famous by television's beloved "Lassie", this centuries-old breed hails
from the Scottish Isles, where it was used for herding livestock in the
Highlands.
It is thought that a drop of
Borzoi dog blood may be responsible for the Collie's fine head. Long before
"Lassie" hit the airwaves, the Collie was popular in Europe. Queen Victoria kept
several Collies at the Royal Kennels at Windsor Palace.
Today's Collie dogs
make great farm dogs for herding livestock - or a great mom's helper to herd
children. This intelligent, loyal and affectionate breed makes a great all-round
family dog! Agile, athletic and capable, Collies are active, and very eager to
please. Collies are very affectionate with their families and those they are
familiar with, but can be somewhat reserved with strangers. Collies are not
known to be aggressive or shy. If you are looking for a wonderful family dog,
then a Collie puppy is an excellent choice!
