There should only be a slight depression at the stop. The width of skull necessarily depends upon the combined length of skull and muzzle, and the whole must be considered in connection with the size of the dog. The cheek should not be full or prominent.<br /><br /><strong>The muzzle:</strong> should be of fair length, tapering to the nose, and must not show weakness or be snipy or lippy. Whatever the colour may be, the nose must be black. The teeth: should be of good size, sound, and level, very slight unevenness is permissible.<br /><br /><strong>The jaws:</strong> should be clean cut and powerful.<br /><br /><strong>The eyes:</strong> are a very important feature and give expression to the dog. They should be of a medium size, set somewhat obliquely, of almond shape and of brown colour except in the case of merles, when the eyes are frequently (one or both) blue and white or china; expression full of intelligence, with a quick alert look when listening.<br /><br /><strong>The ears:</strong> should be small and moderately wide at the base; and placed not too close together on top of the skull, nor too much to the side of the head. When in repose they should be usually carried thrown back, but when on the alert brought forward and carried semi-erect, with tips slightly drooping in the attitude of listening.<br />Faults: Length of head apparently out of proportion to the body and of the Borzoi type are to be strongly condemned. Weak, snipy muzzle; overshot mouth; heavy or gooseberry- coloured, also glassy or staring eyes, are very objectionable. Domed skull, high peaked occiput; prominent cheek; dish-faced; or Roman nosed.<br /><br /><strong>The neck:</strong> should be muscular, powerful and of fair length, and somewhat arched.<br /><br /><strong>The body:</strong> should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, chest deep, fairly broad behind the shoulders, which should be sloped, loins slightly arched and powerful. The dog should be straight in front.<br />Faults: Flat-sided, short or cobby.<br /><br /><strong>The forelegs:</strong> should be straight and muscular, neither in nor out at elbows, with a fair amount of bone; the forearm somewhat fleshy, the pasterns showing flexibility without weakness.<br />Faults<strong>:</strong> Weak long pasterns, out at elbows, crooked forearms.<br /><br /><strong>The hindlegs:</strong> should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy below the hocks, with well bent stifles.<br />Faults: Cow-hocks, straight hocks.<br /><br /><strong>The feet:</strong> should be oval in shape, soles well padded, and the toes arched and close together. The hind feet less arched, hocks well let down and powerful.<br />Faults: Large, open, flat, or hare feet; feet turned outwards or inwards.<br /><br /><strong>The brush:</strong> should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward \"swirl\" at the end, and may be gaily carried when the dog is excited, and not over the back.<br />Faults: Short tail, or tail carried over the back, or twisted to one side.<br /><br /><strong>The coat:</strong> should be very dense, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner or under coat soft, furry, and very close as almost hide the skin. The mane and frill should be very abundant, the mask or face smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should be carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs slightly feathered, the hindlegs above the hocks profusely so, but below the hocks fairly smooth, although all heavily coated collies are liable to grow a slight feathering. Hair on the brush very profuse.<br />Faults: A soft, silky, or wavy coat, or insufficient undercoat.<br /><br /><strong>Colour &amp; markings:</strong> are immaterial, but other points being equal, a nice showily marked dog is preferred. ALL WHITE OR RED SETTER colour is most objectionable.<br /><br /><strong>General Character:</strong> To enable the Collie to fulfil his natural bent for Sheepdog work; he should be built on lines of strength, activity, and grace, with a shapely body and sound legs and feet.

There should only be a slight depression at the stop. The width of skull necessarily depends upon the combined length of skull and muzzle, and the whole must be considered in connection with the size of the dog. The cheek should not be full or prominent.<br /><br /><strong>The muzzle:</strong> should be of fair length, tapering to the nose, and must not show weakness or be snipy or lippy. Whatever the colour may be, the nose must be black. The teeth: should be of good size, sound, and level, very slight unevenness is permissible.<br /><br /><strong>The jaws:</strong> should be clean cut and powerful.<br /><br /><strong>The eyes:</strong> are a very important feature and give expression to the dog. They should be of a medium size, set somewhat obliquely, of almond shape and of brown colour except in the case of merles, when the eyes are frequently (one or both) blue and white or china; expression full of intelligence, with a quick alert look when listening.<br /><br /><strong>The ears:</strong> should be small and moderately wide at the base; and placed not too close together on top of the skull, nor too much to the side of the head. When in repose they should be usually carried thrown back, but when on the alert brought forward and carried semi-erect, with tips slightly drooping in the attitude of listening.<br />Faults: Length of head apparently out of proportion to the body and of the Borzoi type are to be strongly condemned. Weak, snipy muzzle; overshot mouth; heavy or gooseberry- coloured, also glassy or staring eyes, are very objectionable. Domed skull, high peaked occiput; prominent cheek; dish-faced; or Roman nosed.<br /><br /><strong>The neck:</strong> should be muscular, powerful and of fair length, and somewhat arched.<br /><br /><strong>The body:</strong> should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, chest deep, fairly broad behind the shoulders, which should be sloped, loins slightly arched and powerful. The dog should be straight in front.<br />Faults: Flat-sided, short or cobby.<br /><br /><strong>The forelegs:</strong> should be straight and muscular, neither in nor out at elbows, with a fair amount of bone; the forearm somewhat fleshy, the pasterns showing flexibility without weakness.<br />Faults<strong>:</strong> Weak long pasterns, out at elbows, crooked forearms.<br /><br /><strong>The hindlegs:</strong> should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy below the hocks, with well bent stifles.<br />Faults: Cow-hocks, straight hocks.<br /><br /><strong>The feet:</strong> should be oval in shape, soles well padded, and the toes arched and close together. The hind feet less arched, hocks well let down and powerful.<br />Faults: Large, open, flat, or hare feet; feet turned outwards or inwards.<br /><br /><strong>The brush:</strong> should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward \"swirl\" at the end, and may be gaily carried when the dog is excited, and not over the back.<br />Faults: Short tail, or tail carried over the back, or twisted to one side.<br /><br /><strong>The coat:</strong> should be very dense, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner or under coat soft, furry, and very close as almost hide the skin. The mane and frill should be very abundant, the mask or face smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should be carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs slightly feathered, the hindlegs above the hocks profusely so, but below the hocks fairly smooth, although all heavily coated collies are liable to grow a slight feathering. Hair on the brush very profuse.<br />Faults: A soft, silky, or wavy coat, or insufficient undercoat.<br /><br /><strong>Colour &amp; markings:</strong> are immaterial, but other points being equal, a nice showily marked dog is preferred. ALL WHITE OR RED SETTER colour is most objectionable.<br /><br /><strong>General Character:</strong> To enable the Collie to fulfil his natural bent for Sheepdog work; he should be built on lines of strength, activity, and grace, with a shapely body and sound legs and feet.

font-size: 31px !important;\"><strong>Revised Rough and Smooth Collie Standard - 1910</strong></h2><strong>The skull:</strong> should be flat, moderately wide between the ears, and gradually tapering towards the eyes. There should only be a slight depression at the stop. The width of skull necessarily depends upon the combined length of skull and muzzle, and the whole must be considered in connection with the size of the dog. The cheek should not be full or prominent.<br /><br /><strong>The muzzle:</strong> should be of fair length, tapering to the nose, and must not show weakness or be snipy or lippy. Whatever the colour may be, the nose must be black. The teeth: should be of good size, sound, and level, very slight unevenness is permissible.<br /><br /><strong>The jaws:</strong> should be clean cut and powerful.<br /><br /><strong>The eyes:</strong> are a very important feature and give expression to the dog. They should be of a medium size, set somewhat obliquely, of almond shape and of brown colour except in the case of merles, when the eyes are frequently (one or both) blue and white or china; expression full of intelligence, with a quick alert look when listening.<br /><br /><strong>The ears:</strong> should be small and moderately wide at the base; and placed not too close together on top of the skull, nor too much to the side of the head. When in repose they should be usually carried thrown back, but when on the alert brought forward and carried semi-erect, with tips slightly drooping in the attitude of listening.<br />Faults: Length of head apparently out of proportion to the body and of the Borzoi type are to be strongly condemned. Weak, snipy muzzle; overshot mouth; heavy or gooseberry- coloured, also glassy or staring eyes, are very objectionable. Domed skull, high peaked occiput; prominent cheek; dish-faced; or Roman nosed.<br /><br /><strong>The neck:</strong> should be muscular, powerful and of fair length, and somewhat arched.<br /><br /><strong>The body:</strong> should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, chest deep, fairly broad behind the shoulders, which should be sloped, loins slightly arched and powerful. The dog should be straight in front.<br />Faults: Flat-sided, short or cobby.<br /><br /><strong>The forelegs:</strong> should be straight and muscular, neither in nor out at elbows, with a fair amount of bone; the forearm somewhat fleshy, the pasterns showing flexibility without weakness.<br />Faults<strong>:</strong> Weak long pasterns, out at elbows, crooked forearms.<br /><br /><strong>The hindlegs:</strong> should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy below the hocks, with well bent stifles.<br />Faults: Cow-hocks, straight hocks.<br /><br /><strong>The feet:</strong> should be oval in shape, soles well padded, and the toes arched and close together. The hind feet less arched, hocks well let down and powerful.<br />Faults: Large, open, flat, or hare feet; feet turned outwards or inwards.<br /><br /><strong>The brush:</strong> should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward \"swirl\" at the end, and may be gaily carried when the dog is excited, and not over the back.<br />Faults: Short tail, or tail carried over the back, or twisted to one side.<br /><br /><strong>The coat:</strong> should be very dense, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner or under coat soft, furry, and very close as almost hide the skin. The mane and frill should be very abundant, the mask or face smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should be carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs slightly feathered, the hindlegs above the hocks profusely so, but below the hocks fairly smooth, although all heavily coated collies are liable to grow a slight feathering. Hair on the brush very profuse.<br />Faults: A soft, silky, or wavy coat, or insufficient undercoat.<br /><br /><strong>Colour &amp; markings:</strong> are immaterial, but other points being equal, a nice showily marked dog is preferred. ALL WHITE OR RED SETTER colour is most objectionable.<br /><br /><strong>General Character:</strong> To enable the Collie to fulfil his natural bent for Sheepdog work; he should be built on lines of strength, activity, and grace, with a shapely body and sound legs and feet. He should be lithe and active in his movements, and entirely free from cloddiness and coarseness in any parts of his conformation; and, lastly he must be gifted with true expression. Expression is obtained by the perfect combination of head and muzzle, size, shape and colour, and placement of eye, and correct position and carriage of ears, which give the dog that sweet, dreamy, semicunning, yet alert outlook that makes the perfect Collie the most beautiful of the canine race.<br /><br /><strong>Size &amp; weight:</strong> Dogs 22 in. to 24 in. at the shoulders, Bitches 20 in. to 22 in. Dogs 45 lb to 65 lb, Bitches 40 lb to 55 lb.<br /><br /><strong>The Smooth Collie</strong> only differs from the Rough in its coat, which should be hard, dense and quite smooth.<br /><strong>SCALE OF POINTS</strong><br />Head and Expression..........15<br />Ears....................................10<br />Neck and Shoulders............10<br />Legs and Feet......................15<br />Hindquarters......................10<br />Back and Loins...................10<br />Brush....................................5<br />Coat and Frill.....................20<br />Size.......................................5<br />GRAND TOTAL.............100<br /><br /><a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/scps-breed-standard-2016.html\">THE SCOTTISH COLLIE PRESERVATION SOCIETY\'S STANDARD – 2016</a><br /><a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-scottish-collie-clubs-standard-1885.html\">THE SCOTTISH COLLIE CLUB\'S STANDARD – 1885</a><br /><a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-english-clubs-revised-standard-1898.html\">THE ENGLISH CLUBS´ REVISED STANDARD – 1898</a><br /><strong><a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/revised-rough-and-smooth-collie-standard-1910.html\">REVISED ROUGH AND SMOOTH COLLIE STANDARD – 1910</a></strong>		\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						HOME\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						ABOUT SCPS\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						SHOP NOW\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						MEMBER SERVICES\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						CONTACT US\n					</a>\n		Scottish Collie Preservation Society Copyright © 2019We use <strong style=\"color: #2a2a2a;\">cookies </strong>to ensure our website works properly and to collect statistics about users so we can improve the website.

Skull flat, moderately wide between the ears and gradually tapering to the eyes. There should be a very slight elevation of the eyebrows and very little stop.<br><br><strong>Muzzle:</strong>&nbsp;of fair length, tapering to the nose, which, whatever the colour of the dog, should be black. The teeth which are white and of goof size, should not be over nor undershot. Both are faults, the latter the greater of the two.<br><br><strong>Eyes:</strong>&nbsp;of fair size, but not prominent, are placed rather closed together and set obliquely in the head, which gives that cunning foxy expression so characteristic of the breed. Colour any shade of brown, the darker the better, yellow eyes being a great fault. Dogs of mirled colour should have a mirled or china eye and sometimes both eyes are of this colour.<br><br><strong>Ears:</strong>&nbsp;small, placed rather close together at the of the head, covered with short soft hair and carried semi-erect when in attention; at other times thrown back and buried in the frill.<br><strong>Neck:</strong>&nbsp;long, arched, muscular.<br><br><strong>Body:</strong>&nbsp;rather long than short, ribs well rounded, chest deep and narrow in front, but of fair breadth behind the shoulders, which should be oblique. Loin rather long and slightly arched, showing power.<br><br><strong>Legs:</strong>&nbsp;Forelegs straight and muscular, with a fair amount of flat bone, the forearm moderately fleshy, the hindlegs less fleshy, very sinewy and hocks well bent. Pasterns long and light in bone. Feet oval in shape, the soles well padded, and toes well arched and close.<br><br><strong>Tail:</strong>&nbsp;moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, gaily when excited and almost straight out when running.<br><br><strong>Coat:</strong>&nbsp;This is a very important point. The coat, except on the head and legs, should be abundant, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner coat soft and furry, and very close, so close, that it is difficult on parting the hair to see the skin. The hair very abundant round the neck and chest; this is termed the frill. The mask is smooth, the forelegs slightly feathered, the hindlegs below the hocks smooth. Hair on tail very profuse, and on the hips long and bushy.<br><br><strong>Colour:</strong>&nbsp;Any colour.<br><br><strong>Size:</strong>&nbsp;Dogs 21 in. to 24 in. at shoulder, Bitches 2 in. less.<br><br><strong>Weight:</strong>&nbsp;Dogs 45 lb to 60 lb, Bitches 40 lb to 50 lb.<br><br><strong>General Appearance:</strong>&nbsp;A lithe active dog, with no useless timber about him, his deep chest showing strength, his sloping shoulders, and well bent hocks speed. His “bawsint” face high intelligence. The face should bear a sharp, doubtful expression. As a whole, he should present an elegant and pleasing outline, quite distinct from any of our other domesticated breeds, and show great strength and activity.

Both are faults, the latter the greater of the two.<br><br><strong>Eyes:</strong>&nbsp;of fair size, but not prominent, are placed rather closed together and set obliquely in the head, which gives that cunning foxy expression so characteristic of the breed. Colour any shade of brown, the darker the better, yellow eyes being a great fault. Dogs of mirled colour should have a mirled or china eye and sometimes both eyes are of this colour.<br><br><strong>Ears:</strong>&nbsp;small, placed rather close together at the of the head, covered with short soft hair and carried semi-erect when in attention; at other times thrown back and buried in the frill.<br><strong>Neck:</strong>&nbsp;long, arched, muscular.<br><br><strong>Body:</strong>&nbsp;rather long than short, ribs well rounded, chest deep and narrow in front, but of fair breadth behind the shoulders, which should be oblique. Loin rather long and slightly arched, showing power.<br><br><strong>Legs:</strong>&nbsp;Forelegs straight and muscular, with a fair amount of flat bone, the forearm moderately fleshy, the hindlegs less fleshy, very sinewy and hocks well bent. Pasterns long and light in bone. Feet oval in shape, the soles well padded, and toes well arched and close.<br><br><strong>Tail:</strong>&nbsp;moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, gaily when excited and almost straight out when running.<br><br><strong>Coat:</strong>&nbsp;This is a very important point. The coat, except on the head and legs, should be abundant, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner coat soft and furry, and very close, so close, that it is difficult on parting the hair to see the skin. The hair very abundant round the neck and chest; this is termed the frill. The mask is smooth, the forelegs slightly feathered, the hindlegs below the hocks smooth. Hair on tail very profuse, and on the hips long and bushy.<br><br><strong>Colour:</strong>&nbsp;Any colour.<br><br><strong>Size:</strong>&nbsp;Dogs 21 in. to 24 in. at shoulder, Bitches 2 in. less.<br><br><strong>Weight:</strong>&nbsp;Dogs 45 lb to 60 lb, Bitches 40 lb to 50 lb.<br><br><strong>General Appearance:</strong>&nbsp;A lithe active dog, with no useless timber about him, his deep chest showing strength, his sloping shoulders, and well bent hocks speed. His “bawsint” face high intelligence. The face should bear a sharp, doubtful expression. As a whole, he should present an elegant and pleasing outline, quite distinct from any of our other domesticated breeds, and show great strength and activity. Faults: Domed skull, high peaked occipital bone, heavy pendulous ears, full soft eyes, heavily feathered legs, short tail.<br><br><strong>SCALE OF POINTS</strong><br>Head............................................15<br>Eyes...............................................5<br>Ears..............................................10<br>Neck and Shoulders.....................15<br>Body............................................10<br>Legs and Feet...............................15<br>Tail................................................5<br>Coat.............................................20<br>Size &amp; General Appearance..........10<br>GRAND TOTAL......................100<br><br><a href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/scps-breed-standard-2016.html\" style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\"><font color=\"#3387a2\">THE SCOTTISH COLLIE PRESERVATION SOCIETY\'S STANDARD –&nbsp;2016</font></a><br><strong><a href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-scottish-collie-clubs-standard-1885.html\" style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\"><font color=\"#3387a2\">THE SCOTTISH COLLIE CLUB\'S STANDARD&nbsp;–&nbsp;1885</font></a></strong><br><a href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-english-clubs-revised-standard-1898.html\" style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\"><font color=\"#3387a2\">THE ENGLISH CLUBS´ REVISED STANDARD –&nbsp;1898</font></a><br><a href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/revised-rough-and-smooth-collie-standard-1910.html\" style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\"><font color=\"#3387a2\">REVISED ROUGH AND SMOOTH COLLIE STANDARD –&nbsp;1910</font></a>		\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						HOME\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						ABOUT SCPS\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						SHOP NOW\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						MEMBER SERVICES\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"#\" role=\"button\">\n						CONTACT US\n					</a>\n		Scottish Collie Preservation Society Copyright © 2019We use <strong style=\"color: #2a2a2a;\">cookies </strong>to ensure our website works properly and to collect statistics about users so we can improve the website.

What’s that?” This is exactly the question I asked myself in the beginning of 2018. I had not heard of the Scottish Collie myself until I met this stunning dog of a client a year ago. <br /><br />In this episode of SpiritDog Training Stories I speak with Denise Maher, president of the <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/\">Scottish Collie Preservation Society (SCPS).<br /></a><br />When I first saw his picture, I believed him to be a large black and white Border Collie.

What’s that?” This is exactly the question I asked myself in the beginning of 2018. I had not heard of the Scottish Collie myself until I met this stunning dog of a client a year ago. <br /><br />In this episode of SpiritDog Training Stories I speak with Denise Maher, president of the <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/\">Scottish Collie Preservation Society (SCPS).<br /></a><br />When I first saw his picture, I believed him to be a large black and white Border Collie. (Even though he is an 80 lbs. dog – 30lbs heavier than even the heaviest Border Collies – he gets mistaken quite a bit.<br /><br />Meeting him face-to-face though it was clear that he was not that, instead he belongs to a very old breed that has seen a revival in the past few years.<br /><br />The Scottish Collie Preservation Society strives to bring back and expand the breed of the Collie, as it was originally developed as a working breed, used to herd and protect sheep in the often harsh and inhospitable terrain and weather of the Scottish Highlands.<br /><br />Thanks to the efforts of the SCPS, Scottish Collies are now enjoyed by a growing number of dog owners in North America for their temperament, versatility, athleticism and health.<br />Listen to the interview to get to know the breed, its characteristics and the breeding program aimed at bringing back the original Collie:<hr style=\"color: #000000; font-family: \'Helvetica Neue\', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; background-color: #fff2cc; width: 1286px; visibility: hidden;\" />And a little introduction of Denise Maher:<br /><em style=\"position: relative;\">I grew up in Virginia and we always had dogs, mostly Labrador Retrievers.  When my husband and I moved out to the Black Hills of South Dakota, we purchased our first herding dog and my youngest daughter began to train and compete in dog events through 4h and eventually AKC and NADAC Agility. I have worked with horses for years and about three years ago, I decided I we Ted to purchase a dog of my own to work with.  After much research I decided I wanted an old fashioned collie like Lassie, that led me to the Scottish Collies which are the original working collies traced back to the 1800’s before the breed was introduced to the show ring. I purchased my first Scottish Collie over two years ago and fell in love with this breed. </em><br /><br /><em style=\"position: relative;\">My husband and I currently live own twelve acres with horses, barn cats and three dogs:  a Black Lab, a Border Collie, and a Scottish Collie.  My background is in Corporate Development and Training, however I am also a 4-H dog instructor and judge for Agility events in my local county and Director of Marketing &amp; Communication Director for SCPS.  I also compete with my Scottish Collie Titus in agility and we are training in herding, trick training as well as finalizing his verification as a therapy dog.<br /></em><br />You can find out more about the Scottish Collie, including upcoming litters on their <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/\">website </a>and <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity;\" href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/scottishcollieps/\">Facebook page</a> .<br />Enjoying this podcast?

Dogs of merle color frequently have either one or both eyes blue and white or china colored.<br /><br />Ears:  Ears should be small, moderately wide at the base and placed not too close together on the top of the head, nor too much to the side of the head.  The ears are covered with short soft hair longer towards the base and carried semi-erect when alert with tips slightly drooping; at other times they are thrown back and buried in the frill.<br /><br />Neck:  The neck should be muscular, powerful, of fair length, and somewhat arched.\'<br /><br />Body:  Should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, the chest deep and narrow in front, but of fair breadth behind the shoulders, which should be oblique.  The loins should be slightly arched.  The dog should be straight in front.<br /><br />Legs<br />Forelegs:  Should be straight and muscular, and neither in nor out at the elbows with a fair amount of bone, the forearm somewhat fleshy.<br /><br />Hindlegs:  Should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy, below the hocks very sinewy, and hocks well bent, pasterns long, and light in bone, with well bent stifles.<br /><br />Feet:  Should be oval in shape, the soles well padded, and toes well arched and close.  The hind feet are less arched, and the hocks well let down and powerful.<br /><br />Tail:  Should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward swirl at the end, and may be carried gaily when the dog is excited, but not over the back.  The tail is carried almost straight out when running.<br /><br />Coat:  This is a very important point.  The coat, except on the head and legs, should be abundant, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner coat soft and furry, and very close, so close, that it is difficult on parting the hair to see the skin.  The hair is very abundant round the neck and chest; this is termed the frill.  The mask is smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs are slightly feathered, the hind-legs below the hocks are smooth.  Hair on tail is very profuse, and on the hips long and bushy.<br /><br />SMOOTH COATED<br />The Smooth Collie only differs from the Rough in its coat, which should be hard, dense, and quite smooth.<br /><br />ALL SCOTTISH COLLIES Color and Markings:  Are immaterial (except that solid white or red setter color are not desirable colors).  A nice showily marked dog is preferred.<br /><br />Size:  Dogs 22 inches to 24 inches at the shoulder, Bitches 20 to 22 inches.<br /><br />Weight:  Dogs 45 lb. to 65 lb., Bitches 40 lb. to 55 lb.<br /><br />EVALUATION Faults:  Domed skull, a disproportionately large head which may be too wide or too heavy with too pronounced or too exaggerated a stop, high peaked occipital bone, heavy, pendulous or prick ears, weak jaws, narrow muzzle, full soft, staring, or light eyes, crooked legs, large flat or hare feet, curly or soft coat, heavily feather legs, cow hocks, short tail or brush carried right over the back, under or overshot mouth, white or solid red color.<br /><br />Faults in movement include a crooked or heavy cloddish gait, with resulting lack of speed or agility.  <br />The Collie should single track when moving at a high speed yet not cross its feet.  The Collie should trot effortlessly with a floating trot.  Pacing instead of trotting with subsequent rolling action is a fault. <br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><a style=\"color: inherit;

Dogs of merle color frequently have either one or both eyes blue and white or china colored.<br /><br />Ears:  Ears should be small, moderately wide at the base and placed not too close together on the top of the head, nor too much to the side of the head.  The ears are covered with short soft hair longer towards the base and carried semi-erect when alert with tips slightly drooping; at other times they are thrown back and buried in the frill.<br /><br />Neck:  The neck should be muscular, powerful, of fair length, and somewhat arched.\'<br /><br />Body:  Should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, the chest deep and narrow in front, but of fair breadth behind the shoulders, which should be oblique.  The loins should be slightly arched.  The dog should be straight in front.<br /><br />Legs<br />Forelegs:  Should be straight and muscular, and neither in nor out at the elbows with a fair amount of bone, the forearm somewhat fleshy.<br /><br />Hindlegs:  Should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy, below the hocks very sinewy, and hocks well bent, pasterns long, and light in bone, with well bent stifles.<br /><br />Feet:  Should be oval in shape, the soles well padded, and toes well arched and close.  The hind feet are less arched, and the hocks well let down and powerful.<br /><br />Tail:  Should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward swirl at the end, and may be carried gaily when the dog is excited, but not over the back.  The tail is carried almost straight out when running.<br /><br />Coat:  This is a very important point.  The coat, except on the head and legs, should be abundant, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner coat soft and furry, and very close, so close, that it is difficult on parting the hair to see the skin.  The hair is very abundant round the neck and chest; this is termed the frill.  The mask is smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs are slightly feathered, the hind-legs below the hocks are smooth.  Hair on tail is very profuse, and on the hips long and bushy.<br /><br />SMOOTH COATED<br />The Smooth Collie only differs from the Rough in its coat, which should be hard, dense, and quite smooth.<br /><br />ALL SCOTTISH COLLIES Color and Markings:  Are immaterial (except that solid white or red setter color are not desirable colors).  A nice showily marked dog is preferred.<br /><br />Size:  Dogs 22 inches to 24 inches at the shoulder, Bitches 20 to 22 inches.<br /><br />Weight:  Dogs 45 lb. to 65 lb., Bitches 40 lb. to 55 lb.<br /><br />EVALUATION Faults:  Domed skull, a disproportionately large head which may be too wide or too heavy with too pronounced or too exaggerated a stop, high peaked occipital bone, heavy, pendulous or prick ears, weak jaws, narrow muzzle, full soft, staring, or light eyes, crooked legs, large flat or hare feet, curly or soft coat, heavily feather legs, cow hocks, short tail or brush carried right over the back, under or overshot mouth, white or solid red color.<br /><br />Faults in movement include a crooked or heavy cloddish gait, with resulting lack of speed or agility.  <br />The Collie should single track when moving at a high speed yet not cross its feet.  The Collie should trot effortlessly with a floating trot.  Pacing instead of trotting with subsequent rolling action is a fault. <br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><a style=\"color: inherit;

font-size: 31px !important;\">The Scottish Collie Preservation Society Breed Standard</h2><em style=\"position: relative;\">The official breed standard for the Scottish Collie Preservation Society was drawn directly from the three Collie Standards of 1885, 1898, and 1910.  The original language has been preserved as well, in order to restore the most authentic Scottish Collie possible.</em><br /><br /><strong>ROUGH COATED</strong><br />General Character:  A lithe active dog, his deep chest showing lung power, his neck strength, his sloping shoulders and well bent hocks indicating speed, and his expression high intelligence.  He should be fair length on the leg, giving him more of racy than cloddy appearance.  In a few words a Collie should show endurance, activity, and intelligence, with free and true action.<br /><br />Head:  It should be moderately long in proportion to the dog\'s size, and covered with short, soft hair.  The Skull should be flat, moderately wide between the ears and gradually tapering to the eyes.  There should be a very slight elevation of the eyebrows and only a slight depression at the stop.  The width of skull necessarily depends upon the combined length of skull and muzzle, and the whole must be considered in connection with the size of the dog.  The cheek should not be full or prominent.<br /><br />The muzzle should be of fair length tapering to the nose which whatever the color of the dog, should be black and must not show weakness or be snipey or lippy.<br />The teeth, which must be white, and of good size, should not be either over nor undershot.  Both are faults, the latter the greater of the two.<br /><br />Eyes:  The eyes are a very important feature and give expression to the dog.  They should be of fair or medium size, but not prominent.  The eyes should be almond shaped and set somewhat obliquely in the head with an alert expression full of intelligence.  Color may be any shade of brown, the darker the better, yellow eyes being a fault. Dogs of merle color frequently have either one or both eyes blue and white or china colored.<br /><br />Ears:  Ears should be small, moderately wide at the base and placed not too close together on the top of the head, nor too much to the side of the head.  The ears are covered with short soft hair longer towards the base and carried semi-erect when alert with tips slightly drooping; at other times they are thrown back and buried in the frill.<br /><br />Neck:  The neck should be muscular, powerful, of fair length, and somewhat arched.\'<br /><br />Body:  Should be rather long, with well sprung ribs, the chest deep and narrow in front, but of fair breadth behind the shoulders, which should be oblique.  The loins should be slightly arched.  The dog should be straight in front.<br /><br />Legs<br />Forelegs:  Should be straight and muscular, and neither in nor out at the elbows with a fair amount of bone, the forearm somewhat fleshy.<br /><br />Hindlegs:  Should be muscular at the thighs, clean and sinewy, below the hocks very sinewy, and hocks well bent, pasterns long, and light in bone, with well bent stifles.<br /><br />Feet:  Should be oval in shape, the soles well padded, and toes well arched and close.  The hind feet are less arched, and the hocks well let down and powerful.<br /><br />Tail:  Should be moderately long, carried low when the dog is quiet, with a slight upward swirl at the end, and may be carried gaily when the dog is excited, but not over the back.  The tail is carried almost straight out when running.<br /><br />Coat:  This is a very important point.  The coat, except on the head and legs, should be abundant, the outer coat harsh to the touch, the inner coat soft and furry, and very close, so close, that it is difficult on parting the hair to see the skin.  The hair is very abundant round the neck and chest; this is termed the frill.  The mask is smooth, as also the ears at the tips, but they should carry more hair towards the base; the forelegs are slightly feathered, the hind-legs below the hocks are smooth.  Hair on tail is very profuse, and on the hips long and bushy.<br /><br />SMOOTH COATED<br />The Smooth Collie only differs from the Rough in its coat, which should be hard, dense, and quite smooth.<br /><br />ALL SCOTTISH COLLIES Color and Markings:  Are immaterial (except that solid white or red setter color are not desirable colors).  A nice showily marked dog is preferred.<br /><br />Size:  Dogs 22 inches to 24 inches at the shoulder, Bitches 20 to 22 inches.<br /><br />Weight:  Dogs 45 lb. to 65 lb., Bitches 40 lb. to 55 lb.<br /><br />EVALUATION Faults:  Domed skull, a disproportionately large head which may be too wide or too heavy with too pronounced or too exaggerated a stop, high peaked occipital bone, heavy, pendulous or prick ears, weak jaws, narrow muzzle, full soft, staring, or light eyes, crooked legs, large flat or hare feet, curly or soft coat, heavily feather legs, cow hocks, short tail or brush carried right over the back, under or overshot mouth, white or solid red color.<br /><br />Faults in movement include a crooked or heavy cloddish gait, with resulting lack of speed or agility.  <br />The Collie should single track when moving at a high speed yet not cross its feet.  The Collie should trot effortlessly with a floating trot.  Pacing instead of trotting with subsequent rolling action is a fault. <br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><a style=\"color: inherit;

ORGANIZATION<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />1.   The name of the Society shall be The Scottish Collie Preservation Society, or hereinafter, SCPS.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />2.  The SCPS may change its name by gaining the approval of 90% of its Members in a formal secret ballot vote.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />3.  The SCPS will follow Roberts’ Rules of Order in the case of any controversy over procedure.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />4.  The dissolution, or takeover, of the SCPS shall require a unanimous vote in favor of such action by all Members and the Board of Directors and Officers.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 2. PURPOSE<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The purpose of the SCPS is to preserve and revive the breed of the Scottish Rough and Smooth Collie as described in the various ancient standards for the Collie breed from: <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-scottish-collie-clubs-standard-1885.html\">The Scottish Collie Standard - 1885</a>, <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-english-clubs-revised-standard-1898.html\">English Club’s Revised Collie Standard - 1898</a>, and the <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/revised-rough-and-smooth-collie-standard-1910.html\">Revised Rough and Smooth Collie Standard – 1910</a>.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />This group intends to return the Scottish Collie to its original form, health, and vigor, with form fitted to its function of sheepherding by means of careful breeding, which provides for genetic diversity and selection of genetically-tested dogs and bitches resembling the dogs described in the earliest Standards of the breed.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS will endeavor to popularize this breed and help it regain favor with the public and with agricultural groups.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />It is understood that achieving these ends is a process not a starting point. No dogs will perfectly fit the original Scottish Collie Standards, but by assessing the dogs critically against the amalgamated version of the three early Standards, we will be better able to choose mates whose strengths compensate for identified weaknesses.

If a breeder has a dog or bitch which is Affected, and so is carrying two mutant genes for any of the Collie panel of diseases, he/she must make every effort possible to breed in such a way as to begin to breed away from these mutant genes by finding a mate whose genes can begin to correct the problem, thereby raising offspring to the level of unaffected, but Carrier, with the eventual goal being the elimination of these mutant genes from the Scottish Collie gene pool.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />All dogs’ pedigrees will be kept and maintained by the SCPS, as well as records for: health, genetic testing, breeding, and litter registration of all eligible Scottish Collie puppies.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Records will be maintained in an online website database which may be viewed by the public.

Our Members will be people keenly interested in, and dedicated to, preserving the classic type of useful collie: a Collie moderate in all physical attributes as outlined in the earliest Scottish Collie Standards of 1885 to 1910. <br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Members will have as their ultimate goal returning the Scottish Collie breed, as closely as is possible, to the type, character, and working ability of the early Collie of the Highlands of Scotland. The Scottish Collie of that era was so useful, and so beautiful, that it became the most easily recognizable breed of dog. It will be the job of our Members to return this historic breed to its former great temperament, its original functional form, its classic beauty, great health, and stamina, and its usefulness, so that the Scottish Collie can once again become North America’s favorite breed of dog.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 4.  MEETINGS<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS Annual Meeting (\"Annual Meeting\") will be held annually on a date, and at a time, and in a place decided upon by the Board of Directors at least two months prior to the Meeting date.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Every Member in good standing shall be invited to these Annual Meetings via email notification, unless otherwise previously arranged.

ORGANIZATION<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />1.   The name of the Society shall be The Scottish Collie Preservation Society, or hereinafter, SCPS.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />2.  The SCPS may change its name by gaining the approval of 90% of its Members in a formal secret ballot vote.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />3.  The SCPS will follow Roberts’ Rules of Order in the case of any controversy over procedure.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />4.  The dissolution, or takeover, of the SCPS shall require a unanimous vote in favor of such action by all Members and the Board of Directors and Officers.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 2. PURPOSE<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The purpose of the SCPS is to preserve and revive the breed of the Scottish Rough and Smooth Collie as described in the various ancient standards for the Collie breed from: <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-scottish-collie-clubs-standard-1885.html\">The Scottish Collie Standard - 1885</a>, <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-english-clubs-revised-standard-1898.html\">English Club’s Revised Collie Standard - 1898</a>, and the <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/revised-rough-and-smooth-collie-standard-1910.html\">Revised Rough and Smooth Collie Standard – 1910</a>.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />This group intends to return the Scottish Collie to its original form, health, and vigor, with form fitted to its function of sheepherding by means of careful breeding, which provides for genetic diversity and selection of genetically-tested dogs and bitches resembling the dogs described in the earliest Standards of the breed.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS will endeavor to popularize this breed and help it regain favor with the public and with agricultural groups.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />It is understood that achieving these ends is a process not a starting point. No dogs will perfectly fit the original Scottish Collie Standards, but by assessing the dogs critically against the amalgamated version of the three early Standards, we will be better able to choose mates whose strengths compensate for identified weaknesses. Each evaluated dog will receive a Score Card identifying strengths and weaknesses to assist the Owner/Breeder in selection of suitable mates for breeding.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The same is true of working to eliminate the most common of the genetically carried diseases to which the Collie is prone, such as CEA and MDR1. If a breeder has a dog or bitch which is Affected, and so is carrying two mutant genes for any of the Collie panel of diseases, he/she must make every effort possible to breed in such a way as to begin to breed away from these mutant genes by finding a mate whose genes can begin to correct the problem, thereby raising offspring to the level of unaffected, but Carrier, with the eventual goal being the elimination of these mutant genes from the Scottish Collie gene pool.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />All dogs’ pedigrees will be kept and maintained by the SCPS, as well as records for: health, genetic testing, breeding, and litter registration of all eligible Scottish Collie puppies.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Records will be maintained in an online website database which may be viewed by the public.

Our Members will be people keenly interested in, and dedicated to, preserving the classic type of useful collie: a Collie moderate in all physical attributes as outlined in the earliest Scottish Collie Standards of 1885 to 1910. <br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Members will have as their ultimate goal returning the Scottish Collie breed, as closely as is possible, to the type, character, and working ability of the early Collie of the Highlands of Scotland. The Scottish Collie of that era was so useful, and so beautiful, that it became the most easily recognizable breed of dog. It will be the job of our Members to return this historic breed to its former great temperament, its original functional form, its classic beauty, great health, and stamina, and its usefulness, so that the Scottish Collie can once again become North America’s favorite breed of dog.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 4.  MEETINGS<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS Annual Meeting (\"Annual Meeting\") will be held annually on a date, and at a time, and in a place decided upon by the Board of Directors at least two months prior to the Meeting date.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Every Member in good standing shall be invited to these Annual Meetings via email notification, unless otherwise previously arranged. In these few prearranged cases, postal notification may be used, if requested, in advance.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The Annual Meeting will be held at a predetermined venue, and provision will be made for electronic teleconferencing, or video conferencing, for Members unable to travel to the meeting.

PURPOSE<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The purpose of the SCPS is to preserve and revive the breed of the Scottish Rough and Smooth Collie as described in the various ancient standards for the Collie breed from: <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-scottish-collie-clubs-standard-1885.html\">The Scottish Collie Standard - 1885</a>, <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/the-english-clubs-revised-standard-1898.html\">English Club’s Revised Collie Standard - 1898</a>, and the <a style=\"color: inherit; opacity: 0.7; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); transition-duration: 200ms; transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; transition-property: opacity; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; background-color: #fff2cc;\" href=\"https://www.scottishcolliepreservationsociety.com/revised-rough-and-smooth-collie-standard-1910.html\">Revised Rough and Smooth Collie Standard – 1910</a>.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />This group intends to return the Scottish Collie to its original form, health, and vigor, with form fitted to its function of sheepherding by means of careful breeding, which provides for genetic diversity and selection of genetically-tested dogs and bitches resembling the dogs described in the earliest Standards of the breed.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS will endeavor to popularize this breed and help it regain favor with the public and with agricultural groups.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />It is understood that achieving these ends is a process not a starting point. No dogs will perfectly fit the original Scottish Collie Standards, but by assessing the dogs critically against the amalgamated version of the three early Standards, we will be better able to choose mates whose strengths compensate for identified weaknesses. Each evaluated dog will receive a Score Card identifying strengths and weaknesses to assist the Owner/Breeder in selection of suitable mates for breeding.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The same is true of working to eliminate the most common of the genetically carried diseases to which the Collie is prone, such as CEA and MDR1. If a breeder has a dog or bitch which is Affected, and so is carrying two mutant genes for any of the Collie panel of diseases, he/she must make every effort possible to breed in such a way as to begin to breed away from these mutant genes by finding a mate whose genes can begin to correct the problem, thereby raising offspring to the level of unaffected, but Carrier, with the eventual goal being the elimination of these mutant genes from the Scottish Collie gene pool.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />All dogs’ pedigrees will be kept and maintained by the SCPS, as well as records for: health, genetic testing, breeding, and litter registration of all eligible Scottish Collie puppies.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Records will be maintained in an online website database which may be viewed by the public. Entries will be the responsibility of the Registrar.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Admission of dogs to the registry will be based on evaluation and approval by a committee of three, including the Registrar, and appointed by the Board of Directors.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Evaluations will be based on a published list of criteria to include at least the following:</p><ul style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 300; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify; margin-top: 5px !important; margin-bottom: 5px !important; margin-left: 0px !important; padding-left: 3em !important; list-style-position: outside !important; list-style-image: initial !important;\"><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">A similarity to old Scottish Collie type as described in the original 1885 to 1910 Standards.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">Proof of at least beginning, and a commitment to, further genetic testing for all breeding dogs, or proof that the dog\'s genetic status is known and Clear by Parentage.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">A Veterinarian\'s certificate of good health for each dog admitted.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">Good temperament - not aggressive with either other dogs or people, although warning/alerting or guarding of his owner\'s property is acceptable.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">It will highly desirable if herding instinct or working ability is known.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">Dogs may be double- or triple- (Multiple-) registered with other collie, breed, or working collie registries.</li><li style=\"margin-top: 3px !important; padding-left: 5px !important; list-style: outside disc !important;\">All dogs evaluated for admission to the SCPS Registry will receive, in written form, a critique of their dog, noting strengths and weaknesses when compared to the SCPS Standard.</li></ul><p><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Evaluation will assist the Breeder/Owner in selecting a suitable mate strong in the areas in which their dog is weakest.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Genetic testing will be required to assist the Breeder/Owner to choose a mate whose genetic makeup will compensate for mutant genes in his own dog or bitch.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Genetic diversity must be considered in choosing a mate and Co-efficient of Inbreeding (COI) will be tracked within the pedigree database and be automatically published there.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Breeding to suitable mates within the Collie landrace, which will bring the breeder’s dogs’ offspring closer to the SCPS Standard, will be considered desirable. Males or females from the Collie landrace used for breeding are eligible for Registration through the same evaluation process as any other dog.

Our Members will be people keenly interested in, and dedicated to, preserving the classic type of useful collie: a Collie moderate in all physical attributes as outlined in the earliest Scottish Collie Standards of 1885 to 1910. <br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Members will have as their ultimate goal returning the Scottish Collie breed, as closely as is possible, to the type, character, and working ability of the early Collie of the Highlands of Scotland. The Scottish Collie of that era was so useful, and so beautiful, that it became the most easily recognizable breed of dog. It will be the job of our Members to return this historic breed to its former great temperament, its original functional form, its classic beauty, great health, and stamina, and its usefulness, so that the Scottish Collie can once again become North America’s favorite breed of dog.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 4.  MEETINGS<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS Annual Meeting (\"Annual Meeting\") will be held annually on a date, and at a time, and in a place decided upon by the Board of Directors at least two months prior to the Meeting date.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Every Member in good standing shall be invited to these Annual Meetings via email notification, unless otherwise previously arranged. In these few prearranged cases, postal notification may be used, if requested, in advance.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The Annual Meeting will be held at a predetermined venue, and provision will be made for electronic teleconferencing, or video conferencing, for Members unable to travel to the meeting. Because Members will be spread all over North America and possibly other locations around the world, efforts will be made to hold meetings in a location central to the greatest concentration of Members for the first three years.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />If, subsequently, members decide that it would be helpful to vary the Annual Meeting location to give both eastern and western members a chance to attend more easily, that can be decided at the Annual Meeting by a simple majority vote.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />For voting purposes at the Annual Meeting, a quorum shall be comprised of those Members in attendance, both those physically present, and those Members linked in by electronic conferencing methods.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 5. VOTING<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The election of Executive Officers will be carried out by the Board of Directors, with two Executive Officer positions up for election or re-election each year. If the incumbent is nominated to run again for his former position, he may do so as these By-Laws do not limit the number of terms a Director or Executive Officer may serve.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />After three years, all positions will have been renewed through an election process.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />A simple majority of votes cast shall decide all issues voted on, unless noted as exceptions within these SCPS By-Laws.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Election of Board of Directors shall be by an electronic balloting system as decided upon by the Board of Directors.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Election of Executive Officers and Board Members are to be held in the appropriate years, as identified by adherence to these same SCPS By-Laws, and will be held prior to the Annual Meeting to enable installation and swearing in of the newly-elected Executive Officers and Board Members at the Annual Meeting.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />For all votes decided by ballot, rather than an electronic balloting system, the Board of Directors shall appoint, in advance, a committee of three members to count the ballots. This election committee of three shall, after counting the ballots, report the results of the vote in writing to the Board of Directors. The certification of the vote shall be included in the Minutes of the meeting.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />If numbers are insufficient for a committee of three to be appointed, or if the voting is contracted to an electronic voting system, then one person from the membership shall be appointed, and shall assume these duties and responsibilities. No person standing for election may serve as Election Officer for that election process.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 6.

No dogs will perfectly fit the original Scottish Collie Standards, but by assessing the dogs critically against the amalgamated version of the three early Standards, we will be better able to choose mates whose strengths compensate for identified weaknesses. Each evaluated dog will receive a Score Card identifying strengths and weaknesses to assist the Owner/Breeder in selection of suitable mates for breeding.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The same is true of working to eliminate the most common of the genetically carried diseases to which the Collie is prone, such as CEA and MDR1. If a breeder has a dog or bitch which is Affected, and so is carrying two mutant genes for any of the Collie panel of diseases, he/she must make every effort possible to breed in such a way as to begin to breed away from these mutant genes by finding a mate whose genes can begin to correct the problem, thereby raising offspring to the level of unaffected, but Carrier, with the eventual goal being the elimination of these mutant genes from the Scottish Collie gene pool.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />All dogs’ pedigrees will be kept and maintained by the SCPS, as well as records for: health, genetic testing, breeding, and litter registration of all eligible Scottish Collie puppies.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Records will be maintained in an online website database which may be viewed by the public.

Our Members will be people keenly interested in, and dedicated to, preserving the classic type of useful collie: a Collie moderate in all physical attributes as outlined in the earliest Scottish Collie Standards of 1885 to 1910. <br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Members will have as their ultimate goal returning the Scottish Collie breed, as closely as is possible, to the type, character, and working ability of the early Collie of the Highlands of Scotland. The Scottish Collie of that era was so useful, and so beautiful, that it became the most easily recognizable breed of dog. It will be the job of our Members to return this historic breed to its former great temperament, its original functional form, its classic beauty, great health, and stamina, and its usefulness, so that the Scottish Collie can once again become North America’s favorite breed of dog.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 4.  MEETINGS<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The SCPS Annual Meeting (\"Annual Meeting\") will be held annually on a date, and at a time, and in a place decided upon by the Board of Directors at least two months prior to the Meeting date.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />Every Member in good standing shall be invited to these Annual Meetings via email notification, unless otherwise previously arranged. In these few prearranged cases, postal notification may be used, if requested, in advance.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />The Annual Meeting will be held at a predetermined venue, and provision will be made for electronic teleconferencing, or video conferencing, for Members unable to travel to the meeting. Because Members will be spread all over North America and possibly other locations around the world, efforts will be made to hold meetings in a location central to the greatest concentration of Members for the first three years.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />If, subsequently, members decide that it would be helpful to vary the Annual Meeting location to give both eastern and western members a chance to attend more easily, that can be decided at the Annual Meeting by a simple majority vote.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />For voting purposes at the Annual Meeting, a quorum shall be comprised of those Members in attendance, both those physically present, and those Members linked in by electronic conferencing methods.<br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" /><br style=\"color: #626262; font-family: Lato; font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: 0.32px; text-align: justify;\" />ARTICLE 5.
