Border Collie – Baynton

We have 1 beautiful male "Sprollie" pup available to a good home! Vaxxed, microchipped, regularly wormed, and raised on the land with plenty of space to roam. Vibrantly healthy, and well loved! This little personality has an energetic working and show dog lineage but stands out as a quieter version as he hails from a particularly calm pure bred Black and White Border Collie mother, and a sweet pure bred English Black Cocker Spaniel father- both intelligent and interactive parents. A delightful big inquisitive and cheerful male with unusual festive black and white markings. Black eyes, long silky ears, big paws, and a collie coat. He has a fantastic personality. Responds well to training. Already comfortable with children. Loves his toys, a walk, a warm bed and a snuggle. Will be active. Born to Mother Meg, just before Christmas, November 25th, 2025.

Border Collie – Logan Central

Purebred Border Collie Puppy for Sale – Loving Home Needed This is Spot, a purebred male Border Collie puppy, approximately 2–6 months old. He is a Blue and white Border Collie, as shown in the photos. Spot is a very good boy—friendly, playful, and full of energy. I really love Spot, but I currently have two dogs, and it has become a struggle to give both the time and care they deserve. Because of this, I’m sadly looking for a loving and responsible home for him. Spot is not microchipped or registered, so his new owner will need to organise that. I truly hope whoever takes him will treat him well, give him lots of love, and provide him with a fun and happy life. This is a hard decision, so I’m looking for serious and caring people only. Please Take good Care of Him.

Border Collie – Bonnyrigg

FREE to good home We are in need to rehome our 2 beautiful border collies because we have moved to a small place and our working schedules have changed. We no longer have time to take them out and they are just stuck in the backyard all day. I am feeling so guilty and do not want this life for them. They are good, obedient,well trained dogs but they also need to be taken out for a walk or ball play and we unfortunately cannot do that for them anymore. They know lots of tricks and will pee on command as they used to live inside at our bigger house. They are friendly with other dogs and cats and any other pets and anyone that will give them the right attention. Will walk on a lead with you comfortably and both love to be loved. These two are female (Zola- tri-colour) and male (Loki- white and tan) born in the same litter so they have never been separated since birth. Both desexed, microchipped and vaccinated yearly. Can provide papers from vet if needed. Please contact if you are interested in taking them both. They have a customised crate that they both sleep in and bath ponchos that can go with them if you choose to add them to your family.

Border Collie – Springwood

Milly is up for adoption. She turns 7 years old this November. Well trained. Listens to commands and crate trained. Unfortunately we cannot keep up with her needs. She deserves more attention and a walk everyday. She's a loving girl, loves pats and always up for a walk. She loves being outside but if you're inside she can be a great couch potatoe with you. Being a boarder collie she can be fussy or fine with other dogs. Usually fine with other collies/working dogs and smaller dogs. She is not desexed. She's a dog that likes her boundaries so if you have small children she's not for you. Preferable an adult couple who understands the breed with another dog for company. Ideally a decent size backyard.

Border Collie – Waterford

Free to good home. I'm currently trying to rehome my gorgeous Border Collie X Beagle. Her name is Mici (Missy), she's desexed, and she has the loveliest nature, very energetic, her favourite thing in life is fetch (it's not a game, she takes it very seriously haha). She needs someone active because even though she's nine-years-old, the border collie in her is strong, and she needs at least one walk a day preferably coupled with a decent game of fetch. She loves the beach and parks. We currently already have two dogs at my residence, and took on Mici to help a work friend out, however three dogs is just a bit much for our family, especially with Mici's needs. I have all the paperwork for her as well as collars, leads, a seatbelt and harness, etc.

The Ultimate Border Collie Guide

About Border Collie

Border Collie puppies are like a wind-up toy with an endless spring—they thrive on activity and adore having a job to do.

They’re whip-smart and often outthink their owners, but their devotion to their humans is second to none.

Grooming

Weekly brushing helps remove loose fur and prevent tangles.

Origins

The Border Collie’s origins are the windswept hills and rugged landscapes of the Scottish-English border, where it was bred for herding sheep with unparalleled precision.

Its roots date back hundreds of years, with ancestors that combined speed, stamina, and an uncanny ability to read livestock.

The breed as we know it was solidified in the 19th century, largely thanks to a dog named Old Hemp, the patriarch of modern Border Collies.

Today, they remain the gold standard for herding dogs across the globe.

Key Characteristics Of Border Collies

Are Border Collies Family-Friendly?

For the right family, a Border Collie is nothing short of a joy.

They bond fiercely with their people and are wonderful companions for active households, provided you gel with their specific quirks.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Border Collies may suffer from:

Seizures

Retinal atrophy

Hypothyroidism

Canine Hip Dysplasia

Nature / Temperament

Energetic, intelligent, loyal, focused, playful

Suitable Environment

Border Collies thrive in places where they can stretch their legs and have a safe space to run.

A house with a secure yard is ideal, and rural settings with wide-open spaces are even better.

Other Considerations

  1. Border Collies are famous for their intense gaze, or “eye,” which they use to control livestock with nothing but a look.
  2. A Border Collie named Chaser was known as the smartest dog in the world, recognising over 1,000 words – the biggest vocabulary of any non-human animal, ever.
  3. These dogs have graced the big screen, including memorable roles in films like Babe.
  4. They herd anything that is mobile: kids, dogs, sheep and even cats. It’s advisable to keep your dog in a securely fenced yard.
  5. These are workaholic canines so they thrive on physical and mental stimulation. Consider getting them puzzle toys to keep them entertained.

How can I take good care of my Border Collie?

Nutrition

Border Collies burn through calories like nobody’s business, so they need a high-quality, nutrient-dense diet packed with protein to support their muscles and healthy fats for energy.

Divide meals into two portions daily to fuel their active lifestyle without overloading their digestive system.

Grooming

Their double coat is weather-resistant and surprisingly low-maintenance.

Exercise

Daily activity is a must—long walks, vigourous games, or even agility training.

Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise, so include puzzle toys, training sessions, or even herding activities if possible.

A bored and energy-filled Border Collie puppy is a troublemaker lying in wait.

Training

Border Collies are sharp as a tack, but their intelligence comes with a side of stubbornness. Early training is crucial, and positive reinforcement works wonders. Keep sessions engaging and varied—they’re quick to learn but just as quick to grow bored if things feel repetitive.

Adopt from a reputable Border Collie puppy registered breeder so that your puppy has the best chance of growing into a well-behaved adult dog.

This is general information and should not be relied on for adopting or purchasing advice.

Most Asked Border Collie Questions

Responsible Border Collie breeders will be able to produce healthy Border Collie puppies with an even temperament. The average cost of Border Collie puppies will be between AUD $1000 and $5000.

Yes, they are very agile. They can jump as high as 1.5m, especially if they notice something interesting on the other side.

Yes, though their herding instincts may lead to playful chasing. Proper introductions and socialisation help them adapt.

They’re not excessive barkers but will vocalise to alert you or when excited.
