Country of Origin: Scotland or England. Size: Shoulder height: 53 - 55 cm (20.75 - 21.5 inches).
Coat: White should not be predominant, however all colors are acceptable.The most common color combination is black with white markings. The undercoat is thick, medium-length, and shiny.
Character: Intelligent, determined and brave, this dog forms a close bond with its family and is also eager to work.
Temperament: This dog gets along quite well with other pets and children, provided it has plenty of activity to keep it occupied.
Care: Weekly brushing of the coat should keep it in good condition.
Training: The Border Collie's tremendous intelligence and desire to please means training is rarely a challenge.
Activity: If not given work to do, the Border Collie will become badly behaved. It needs ample exercise, and its origin as a sheepdog and cattle-herder means that it is only happy when given specific tasks on a regular basis.
