ABOUT COLLIES

A collie is a distinctive type of herding dog, ultimately originating in Britain, especially in the upland areas of the north and west. It is a medium-sized, fairly lightly-built dog with a pointed snout, and many types have a distinctive white pattern over the shoulders. Collies are very active and agile, and most types have a very strong herding instinct. The collie type has spread through many parts of the world (especially Australia and North America) and has diversified into many landraces and breeds, sometimes with mixture from other dog types. Some of the collie types have remained as working dogs, used for herding cattle, sheep and other livestock, while others are kept as pets, show dogs or for dog sports, in which they display great agility, stamina and trainability.

Common use of the name "collie" in some areas is limited largely to certain breeds – such as to the Rough Collie in parts of the United States, or to the Border Collie in many rural parts of Great Britain. Many collie types do not actually include "collie" in their name.

Have you thought of a Chow Chow? Many ppl doesn't know they are a good guard dog. My chow chow knows how to guard at the age of 2 mths+.

how much does a border collie costs?
anyone can ship it to sibu sarawak?
pls kindly let me know
thanks a lot.
Regards.

I've seen before a Border Collie in a pet shop selling for around RM1500, he was 3 to 4 months old that time.

Border is not guard dog, they are very active family dog. They can be a good watchdog.Yes they r the smartest dog in dogworld as a result from a few experiments...

U can try english mastiff, bullmastiff or french mastiff. They are very good guard dog. Or maybe u can consider Great Dane, as they are not guard dog but their appearance will give people a very scary feeling, especially black GD

i had just got my border collie pup, tried to search BC thread,but Lyn still yet have it.is there any other BC owner here in lyn?shall we open the thread & discuss everything about this breed?

just bought my little one...
