A purebred, Border Collies are well known for their intense stare and ability to move while staying low to the ground. Also called Borders, they are medium-sized with a lean frame and good muscle tone.
Born with an instinct to work, they make great mountain-rescue or sniffer dogs. They love a good challenge, so make sure they get plenty of mental stimulation.
Border Collies are a mix of the Roman herding dogs and the Viking Spitz variety. They trace their roots back to one common ancestor, a dog named Old Hemp.
Born in the late 1800s in the northernmost county of England, Old Hemp was intelligent and had natural herding abilities. His owner and breeder, Adam Telfer, made him the top working dog on the farm.
With a reputation as an outstanding herder, Old Hemp became a sought-after stud dog. Estimates say his offspring totalled more than 200, making him the foundation sire of the Border Collie breed.
Are Border Collies family-friendly? | Yes, they are. Because of their herding instincts, they are protective of their humans and can be good with children. They are also wary of strangers, making them a great family watchdog. |
Daily exercise needs? | At least 90 minutes of strenuous exercise per day |
Common health issues & considerations | While generally healthy, Border Collies are still prone to certain health conditions. These include:
|
Lifespan | 12 to 15 years |
Nature / Temperament | Tenacious, intelligent, energetic, alert, loyal, and athletic |
Size | Weight
Male: 15.9 to 20.4 kg Female: 13.6 to 18.1 kg Height Male: 48.26 to 55.88 cm Female: 45.72 to 53.34 cm |
Suitable Environment | These pups are happiest on a farm or ranch where they can run all day. An adaptable breed, they are also suited in fenced city homes where they have some elbow room. |
Grooming | Brush your pup’s coat once or twice a week. Daily brushing is required during shedding season. |
Border Collies typicaly range between $1000 and $5000AUD.
Any high-quality dog food will do well with a Border Collie regardless of his age. The recommended daily amount is 1.5 to 2 cups of dry food per day, divided into two meals.
These pups are prone to getting overweight, so you must watch out for their calorie consumption.
A Border Collie’s coat can be brushed bi-weekly to remove dead hair, prevent tangling, and keep shedding under control. During shedding season, however, his coat needs to be brushed daily.
Exercise
With a high energy level, Border Collies need vigorous exercise daily. This means, an hour or more a day. They are perfect for active owners who will support their need for mental and physical stimulation.
Border Collies are one of the most trainable dogs in the world. While quick to learn, they need a patient and dedicated owner to coach them as they are very independent and strong-minded. When properly trained, they can be very great at herding and sports.
Early socialisation is important to Border Collies, so obedience training should start from puppyhood through about seven months. They respond well to positive reinforcements, so reward them with treats.
This is basic information, and it should not be used to make adoption or purchasing decisions. Be sure to consult an expert if you’d like to learn about the breed’s care and requirements.
This is general information and should not be relied on for adopting or purchasing advice.
Border Collies are medium-sized dogs that have an athletic build. They come in all colour combinations and markings, including solid, bi-colour, tri-colour, merle, and sable. Their coats can either be smooth or rough.
Border Collies shed moderately during most of the year. However, they shed a lot during spring and fall.
The price of a Border Collie puppy for sale depends on his age, sex, and pedigree. The typical price is between AUD $1,000 and $2,000. A top-quality dog from a reputable breeder can cost $4,700 or more.
