The Scottish variety was a large, strong, aggressive dog, bred to herd highland sheep. The Welsh variety was small and nimble, domesticated, friendly,&nbsp; and also herded goats.&nbsp; When the English&nbsp;saw these dogs at the Birmingham market, they interbred them with their own variety of sheepdogs, producing a mixture of&nbsp;<\\/span><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">short- and long-haired varieties. After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable, and these early collies were believed to have been crossed with the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) to get a more \\\"noble\\\" head (longer muzzle), which is today one of the true characteristics of the Rough Collie. It is not known conclusively if the Borzoi cross made it into the mainstream of the breed.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p>When Queen Victoria acquired a Rough Collie, after seeing one at Balmoral Castle, they were transformed into something of a fashion item. Continued breeding for show purposes drastically changed the appearance of the dogs; in the 1960s, it was a much taller dog than it is today in the UK (in the US, the size standard has not been revised downward and dogs have remained between 24-26\\\"). Earlier dogs were also more sturdy in build and reportedly capable of covering up to 100 miles in one day. In the UK the Rough Collie is no longer used for serious herding, having been replaced by the Border Collie, though in the United States and a number of European countries, there has been a resurgence in the use of the Collie as a working and performance dog.<\\/p>\",\"text_color\":\"#060606\",\"typography_typography\":\"custom\",\"typography_font_family\":\"Lato\",\"typography_font_size\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"size\":18,\"sizes\":[]},\"typography_font_weight\":\"300\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"11b3336\"}]},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"}],\"isInner\":false}],\"isInner\":false},{\"id\":\"7ff52d4\",\"elType\":\"section\",\"settings\":{\"background_background\":\"classic\",\"background_color\":\"#FFF2CC\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"467342f\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"4614aaf\",\"elType\":\"column\",\"settings\":{\"_column_size\":100,\"_inline_size\":null,\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"180bf03\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"6ccbb4d\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<p><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">The Collie Club of America is one of the oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).

Generally, the most accepted origin of the word is \\\"Coll\\\" - the Anglo-Saxon word for \\\"black\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In the 18th century, the Rough Collie\'s natural home was in the highlands of Scotland, where he had been used for centuries as a sheepdog. The dogs were bred with great care in order to assist their masters in the herding and guarding of their flock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Without a doubt, it is to the English fancy of the late 1800s that the breed owes its development as a popular show dog. Rough Collies were first exhibited in 1860 at the Birmingham, England dog show, in the generic class \\\"Scotch Sheep-Dogs\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In 1879 the first English Rough Collie was imported to this country.

The breed continued to flourish in England. American show prizes were dominated by the British imports. As a result of the imports, the breed made rapid progress between 1900 to 1920. These dogs built the foundations upon which the present day Rough Collie is based and paved the way for the emergence of the great American kennels of the 1920s and 1930s.

The Scottish variety was a large, strong, aggressive dog, bred to herd highland sheep. The Welsh variety was small and nimble, domesticated, friendly,&nbsp; and also herded goats.&nbsp; When the English&nbsp;saw these dogs at the Birmingham market, they interbred them with their own variety of sheepdogs, producing a mixture of&nbsp;<\\/span><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">short- and long-haired varieties. After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable, and these early collies were believed to have been crossed with the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) to get a more \\\"noble\\\" head (longer muzzle), which is today one of the true characteristics of the Rough Collie. It is not known conclusively if the Borzoi cross made it into the mainstream of the breed.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p>When Queen Victoria acquired a Rough Collie, after seeing one at Balmoral Castle, they were transformed into something of a fashion item. Continued breeding for show purposes drastically changed the appearance of the dogs; in the 1960s, it was a much taller dog than it is today in the UK (in the US, the size standard has not been revised downward and dogs have remained between 24-26\\\"). Earlier dogs were also more sturdy in build and reportedly capable of covering up to 100 miles in one day. In the UK the Rough Collie is no longer used for serious herding, having been replaced by the Border Collie, though in the United States and a number of European countries, there has been a resurgence in the use of the Collie as a working and performance dog.<\\/p>\",\"text_color\":\"#060606\",\"typography_typography\":\"custom\",\"typography_font_family\":\"Lato\",\"typography_font_size\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"size\":18,\"sizes\":[]},\"typography_font_weight\":\"300\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"11b3336\"}]},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"}],\"isInner\":false}],\"isInner\":false},{\"id\":\"7ff52d4\",\"elType\":\"section\",\"settings\":{\"background_background\":\"classic\",\"background_color\":\"#FFF2CC\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"467342f\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"4614aaf\",\"elType\":\"column\",\"settings\":{\"_column_size\":100,\"_inline_size\":null,\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"180bf03\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"6ccbb4d\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<p><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">The Collie Club of America is one of the oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).

The Scottish variety was a large, strong, aggressive dog, bred to herd highland sheep. The Welsh variety was small and nimble, domesticated, friendly,&nbsp; and also herded goats.&nbsp; When the English&nbsp;saw these dogs at the Birmingham market, they interbred them with their own variety of sheepdogs, producing a mixture of&nbsp;<\\/span><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">short- and long-haired varieties. After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable, and these early collies were believed to have been crossed with the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) to get a more \\\"noble\\\" head (longer muzzle), which is today one of the true characteristics of the Rough Collie. It is not known conclusively if the Borzoi cross made it into the mainstream of the breed.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p>When Queen Victoria acquired a Rough Collie, after seeing one at Balmoral Castle, they were transformed into something of a fashion item. Continued breeding for show purposes drastically changed the appearance of the dogs; in the 1960s, it was a much taller dog than it is today in the UK (in the US, the size standard has not been revised downward and dogs have remained between 24-26\\\"). Earlier dogs were also more sturdy in build and reportedly capable of covering up to 100 miles in one day. In the UK the Rough Collie is no longer used for serious herding, having been replaced by the Border Collie, though in the United States and a number of European countries, there has been a resurgence in the use of the Collie as a working and performance dog.<\\/p>\",\"text_color\":\"#060606\",\"typography_typography\":\"custom\",\"typography_font_family\":\"Lato\",\"typography_font_size\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"size\":18,\"sizes\":[]},\"typography_font_weight\":\"300\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"11b3336\"}]},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"}],\"isInner\":false}],\"isInner\":false},{\"id\":\"7ff52d4\",\"elType\":\"section\",\"settings\":{\"background_background\":\"classic\",\"background_color\":\"#FFF2CC\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"467342f\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"4614aaf\",\"elType\":\"column\",\"settings\":{\"_column_size\":100,\"_inline_size\":null,\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"180bf03\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"6ccbb4d\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<p><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">The Collie Club of America is one of the oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).

It has been the subject of much research and speculation. The word \\\"Collie\\\" is as obscure as the breed itself. The name has been spelled many different ways: Coll, Colley, Coally and Coaly. Generally, the most accepted origin of the word is \\\"Coll\\\" - the Anglo-Saxon word for \\\"black\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In the 18th century, the Rough Collie\'s natural home was in the highlands of Scotland, where he had been used for centuries as a sheepdog. The dogs were bred with great care in order to assist their masters in the herding and guarding of their flock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Without a doubt, it is to the English fancy of the late 1800s that the breed owes its development as a popular show dog. Rough Collies were first exhibited in 1860 at the Birmingham, England dog show, in the generic class \\\"Scotch Sheep-Dogs\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In 1879 the first English Rough Collie was imported to this country. It is from England that we find the famous pillars of the breed, from which the American fanciers sought not only their next big winner, but also their foundation stock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">By the turn of the century, the American Rough Collie was in a state of continued development. The breed continued to flourish in England. American show prizes were dominated by the British imports. As a result of the imports, the breed made rapid progress between 1900 to 1920. These dogs built the foundations upon which the present day Rough Collie is based and paved the way for the emergence of the great American kennels of the 1920s and 1930s.

The Scottish variety was a large, strong, aggressive dog, bred to herd highland sheep. The Welsh variety was small and nimble, domesticated, friendly,&nbsp; and also herded goats.&nbsp; When the English&nbsp;saw these dogs at the Birmingham market, they interbred them with their own variety of sheepdogs, producing a mixture of&nbsp;<\\/span><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">short- and long-haired varieties. After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable, and these early collies were believed to have been crossed with the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) to get a more \\\"noble\\\" head (longer muzzle), which is today one of the true characteristics of the Rough Collie. It is not known conclusively if the Borzoi cross made it into the mainstream of the breed.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p>When Queen Victoria acquired a Rough Collie, after seeing one at Balmoral Castle, they were transformed into something of a fashion item. Continued breeding for show purposes drastically changed the appearance of the dogs; in the 1960s, it was a much taller dog than it is today in the UK (in the US, the size standard has not been revised downward and dogs have remained between 24-26\\\"). Earlier dogs were also more sturdy in build and reportedly capable of covering up to 100 miles in one day. In the UK the Rough Collie is no longer used for serious herding, having been replaced by the Border Collie, though in the United States and a number of European countries, there has been a resurgence in the use of the Collie as a working and performance dog.<\\/p>\",\"text_color\":\"#060606\",\"typography_typography\":\"custom\",\"typography_font_family\":\"Lato\",\"typography_font_size\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"size\":18,\"sizes\":[]},\"typography_font_weight\":\"300\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"11b3336\"}]},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"}],\"isInner\":false}],\"isInner\":false},{\"id\":\"7ff52d4\",\"elType\":\"section\",\"settings\":{\"background_background\":\"classic\",\"background_color\":\"#FFF2CC\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"467342f\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"4614aaf\",\"elType\":\"column\",\"settings\":{\"_column_size\":100,\"_inline_size\":null,\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"180bf03\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"6ccbb4d\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<p><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">The Collie Club of America is one of the oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).

It has been the subject of much research and speculation. The word \\\"Collie\\\" is as obscure as the breed itself. The name has been spelled many different ways: Coll, Colley, Coally and Coaly. Generally, the most accepted origin of the word is \\\"Coll\\\" - the Anglo-Saxon word for \\\"black\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In the 18th century, the Rough Collie\'s natural home was in the highlands of Scotland, where he had been used for centuries as a sheepdog. The dogs were bred with great care in order to assist their masters in the herding and guarding of their flock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Without a doubt, it is to the English fancy of the late 1800s that the breed owes its development as a popular show dog. Rough Collies were first exhibited in 1860 at the Birmingham, England dog show, in the generic class \\\"Scotch Sheep-Dogs\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In 1879 the first English Rough Collie was imported to this country. It is from England that we find the famous pillars of the breed, from which the American fanciers sought not only their next big winner, but also their foundation stock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">By the turn of the century, the American Rough Collie was in a state of continued development. The breed continued to flourish in England. American show prizes were dominated by the British imports. As a result of the imports, the breed made rapid progress between 1900 to 1920. These dogs built the foundations upon which the present day Rough Collie is based and paved the way for the emergence of the great American kennels of the 1920s and 1930s.

The Scottish variety was a large, strong, aggressive dog, bred to herd highland sheep. The Welsh variety was small and nimble, domesticated, friendly,&nbsp; and also herded goats.&nbsp; When the English&nbsp;saw these dogs at the Birmingham market, they interbred them with their own variety of sheepdogs, producing a mixture of&nbsp;<\\/span><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">short- and long-haired varieties. After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable, and these early collies were believed to have been crossed with the Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) to get a more \\\"noble\\\" head (longer muzzle), which is today one of the true characteristics of the Rough Collie. It is not known conclusively if the Borzoi cross made it into the mainstream of the breed.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p>When Queen Victoria acquired a Rough Collie, after seeing one at Balmoral Castle, they were transformed into something of a fashion item. Continued breeding for show purposes drastically changed the appearance of the dogs; in the 1960s, it was a much taller dog than it is today in the UK (in the US, the size standard has not been revised downward and dogs have remained between 24-26\\\"). Earlier dogs were also more sturdy in build and reportedly capable of covering up to 100 miles in one day. In the UK the Rough Collie is no longer used for serious herding, having been replaced by the Border Collie, though in the United States and a number of European countries, there has been a resurgence in the use of the Collie as a working and performance dog.<\\/p>\",\"text_color\":\"#060606\",\"typography_typography\":\"custom\",\"typography_font_family\":\"Lato\",\"typography_font_size\":{\"unit\":\"px\",\"size\":18,\"sizes\":[]},\"typography_font_weight\":\"300\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"11b3336\"}]},\"elements\":[],\"widgetType\":\"text-editor\"}],\"isInner\":false}],\"isInner\":false},{\"id\":\"7ff52d4\",\"elType\":\"section\",\"settings\":{\"background_background\":\"classic\",\"background_color\":\"#FFF2CC\",\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"467342f\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"4614aaf\",\"elType\":\"column\",\"settings\":{\"_column_size\":100,\"_inline_size\":null,\"pa_condition_repeater\":[{\"_id\":\"180bf03\"}]},\"elements\":[{\"id\":\"6ccbb4d\",\"elType\":\"widget\",\"settings\":{\"editor\":\"<p><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">The Collie Club of America is one of the oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).

It has been the subject of much research and speculation. The word \\\"Collie\\\" is as obscure as the breed itself. The name has been spelled many different ways: Coll, Colley, Coally and Coaly. Generally, the most accepted origin of the word is \\\"Coll\\\" - the Anglo-Saxon word for \\\"black\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In the 18th century, the Rough Collie\'s natural home was in the highlands of Scotland, where he had been used for centuries as a sheepdog. The dogs were bred with great care in order to assist their masters in the herding and guarding of their flock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Without a doubt, it is to the English fancy of the late 1800s that the breed owes its development as a popular show dog. Rough Collies were first exhibited in 1860 at the Birmingham, England dog show, in the generic class \\\"Scotch Sheep-Dogs\\\".<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">In 1879 the first English Rough Collie was imported to this country. It is from England that we find the famous pillars of the breed, from which the American fanciers sought not only their next big winner, but also their foundation stock.<\\/span><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: medium; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">By the turn of the century, the American Rough Collie was in a state of continued development. The breed continued to flourish in England. American show prizes were dominated by the British imports. As a result of the imports, the breed made rapid progress between 1900 to 1920. These dogs built the foundations upon which the present day Rough Collie is based and paved the way for the emergence of the great American kennels of the 1920s and 1930s.

!important;\\\">\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">The origin of the Scottish Collie has been traced back to the mountainous regions of northern Scotland. Due to the tough terrain of rocks, peaks and steep valleys it was difficult for the shepherds to herd and gather their flocks. Due to the challenging landscape and the shepherd\'s inability to navigate it easily, it was important to breed a dog who was light and agile to easily cover the mountainous areas, with the endurance to work for hours, herd sheep with a soft eye and highly intelligent to be able to regulate pressure to avoid spooking the sheep which would cause injury as they scrambled through the rocky landscape.<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">If is also evident that the shepherd needed a herding dog of distinct intelligence to not only execute the shepherd\'s commands at quite a distance as he was often unable to travel the terrain with the collie. The collies unique ability to independently assess the sheep and move them safely with little guidance from the shepherd was a valuable trait and very sought after. Total obedience to his master was a must and bred into the lines of the classic Scottish Collie.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">It is only reasonable to assume that owners of livestock in the 1800`s took great care in breeding collies by selecting for the purpose of the traits needed to perform the duties of a good shepherd dog. Although dogs who lacked the skills to perform the duties were generally not bred, the working Scottish Collie could be found in great abundance.<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Unfortunately every dog has his day and eventually the Scottish Collie migrated into Europe and was discovered by those who did not need the skills of the working Scottish Collie but loved the intelligence, beauty and temperament. As a result the collie was bred away from it\'s original purpose as a working farm collie and morphed into the Rough Collie and Smooth Collie we know today. The rise of the show collie soon followed and the collie was bred to be a flashier breed with a heavier coat, larger in statute and less drive so as to compete in the show ring.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">In 1900\'s the Scottish Collie was also cross bred to the Welsh Collie in Wales and the Border Collie to create a herding dog with the collie obedience and a higher drive for herding the low land areas where more pressure and speed could be used to move the flocks safely. Soon the Scottish Collie dwindled in numbers on the farms while at the same time the Rough Collie and Border Collie grew in popularity.<\\/span><\\/span><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">It is now very difficult to locate the original Scottish Collies from Scotland.&nbsp; At SCPS, we are looking to identify collies worldwide who still carry the traits of the classic working farm collie and breed back to the original Scottish Collie

Due to the tough terrain of rocks, peaks and steep valleys it was difficult for the shepherds to herd and gather their flocks. Due to the challenging landscape and the shepherd\'s inability to navigate it easily, it was important to breed a dog who was light and agile to easily cover the mountainous areas, with the endurance to work for hours, herd sheep with a soft eye and highly intelligent to be able to regulate pressure to avoid spooking the sheep which would cause injury as they scrambled through the rocky landscape.<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">If is also evident that the shepherd needed a herding dog of distinct intelligence to not only execute the shepherd\'s commands at quite a distance as he was often unable to travel the terrain with the collie. The collies unique ability to independently assess the sheep and move them safely with little guidance from the shepherd was a valuable trait and very sought after. Total obedience to his master was a must and bred into the lines of the classic Scottish Collie.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">It is only reasonable to assume that owners of livestock in the 1800`s took great care in breeding collies by selecting for the purpose of the traits needed to perform the duties of a good shepherd dog. Although dogs who lacked the skills to perform the duties were generally not bred, the working Scottish Collie could be found in great abundance.<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\">Unfortunately every dog has his day and eventually the Scottish Collie migrated into Europe and was discovered by those who did not need the skills of the working Scottish Collie but loved the intelligence, beauty and temperament. As a result the collie was bred away from it\'s original purpose as a working farm collie and morphed into the Rough Collie and Smooth Collie we know today. The rise of the show collie soon followed and the collie was bred to be a flashier breed with a heavier coat, larger in statute and less drive so as to compete in the show ring.<\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">In 1900\'s the Scottish Collie was also cross bred to the Welsh Collie in Wales and the Border Collie to create a herding dog with the collie obedience and a higher drive for herding the low land areas where more pressure and speed could be used to move the flocks safely. Soon the Scottish Collie dwindled in numbers on the farms while at the same time the Rough Collie and Border Collie grew in popularity.<\\/span><\\/span><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><br style=\\\"letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.32px;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">It is now very difficult to locate the original Scottish Collies from Scotland.&nbsp; At SCPS, we are looking to identify collies worldwide who still carry the traits of the classic working farm collie and breed back to the original Scottish Collie

Due to the tough terrain of rocks, peaks and steep valleys it was difficult for the shepherds to herd and gather their flocks. Due to the challenging landscape and the shepherd\'s inability to navigate it easily, it was important to breed a dog who was light and agile to easily cover the mountainous areas, with the endurance to work for hours, herd sheep with a soft eye and highly intelligent to be able to regulate pressure to avoid spooking the sheep which would cause injury as they scrambled through the rocky landscape.<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">If is also evident that the shepherd needed a herding dog of distinct intelligence to not only execute the shepherd\'s commands at quite a distance as he was often unable to travel the terrain with the collie. The collies unique ability to independently assess the sheep and move them safely with little guidance from the shepherd was a valuable trait and very sought after. Total obedience to his master was a must and bred into the lines of the classic Scottish Collie.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\\/span><\\/span><\\/p>\\n<p><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: inherit;\\\">It is only reasonable to assume that owners of livestock in the 1800`s took great care in breeding collies by selecting for the purpose of the traits needed to perform the duties of a good shepherd dog.

As a result the collie was bred away from it\'s original purpose as a working farm collie and morphed into the Rough Collie and Smooth Collie we know today.
