Description
The Border Collie is a Scottish herding dog breed widely considered the most intelligent dog breed. They are descended from domesticated sheepdogs originally found in the British Isles. In the Anglo-Scottish border the breed became standardized. The border collie of today has been around for more than 130 years. Yet, their ancestors date all the way back to the first partnership between humans and dogs for the management of livestock. In medieval times, these dogs had specialized roles: some were drovers, some served as guards, and others were used as herders.
Border Collies continue to be employed in their traditional work of herding livestock throughout the world and are kept as pets.Although the main role of the border collie is to herd livestock, the breed is becoming increasingly popular as a companion animal. However, due to their working heritage, this energetic and playful breed requires stimulation and will thrive best in households that can provide them with plenty of play and exercise.
