Country of Origin: Scottland and Wales
The breed was initially bred for herding. These original collies were descended from localized variety of herding dogs from Scotland and Wales. The Rough Collie had been used for centuries as a sheepdodg in the Scottish Highlands.
After the industrial revolution, dog ownership became fashionable. It is believed that the Borzooi was mixed into the rough collie, producing the longer more noble head. Today this is the the main feature of the breed.
Todays Rough Collies are more show dog than working dog. The breed has been developed to be an excellent companion animal and fits perfectly in most homes. If you are looking to herd with your Rough Colie, then you will want to seek a breeder who’s program is specifically breeding for herding instincts in their rough collies.
Rough Collies should be of sound temperament, showing little or no nervousness or aggression. Rough collies are generally great with children. The breed is considered a one family breed, meaning that have a strong bond and loyalty to their original family. Aside from a possible visual deterrent Rough collies are not considered to be affective guard dogs.
Rough Collies are generally a healthy breed. Obviously a breeder who health test and breeds only healthy dogs, will produce healthier Rough Collies. Health issues facing the breed, include Colliey eye anomaly, a genetic disease that results in improper development of the eye and possible blindness. Progressive retinal atrophy can also be an issue in this breed. Hip dysplasia, a common issue with most medium to large breeds is also a potential concern.
Activities
In addition to herding other activities this breed excels at are agility, fly ball, obedience, tracking, and confirmation.
Grooming
Rough collies need consistant brushing to keep their coat in show condition. Dog’s in pet homes need less brushing maybe once a week, with a little trimming here and there.
Conclusion
The rough collie is beautiful and majestic. It is an amazing companion dog that will fit nicely in any moderately active home. It will be loving and attentive to its family and provide years of companionship and adventure.

i had a particular rough collie for many yrs. my niece loved my dogs from the time of her birth, and whenever she came to spend the night the first thing she said was 'can the dogs come in the house?' one night i heard her screaming 'make him stop! make him stop!' i ran to see what he was he was doing to her, and he had her herded into a corner and wouldn't let her out! she was 3 yrs old at the time, and she wasn't hurt; she was furious lol!
The world needs more dog breeds with little drive and placid temperaments because the vast majority of homes need that kind of dog for a pet. I've lived with collies and they're so sweet and easy and lazy. Great dogs.

Our Collie was great in letting us know when somebody was around.
It's a dog most suited for rural life. Hate seeing it become so much a show dog. They have so much else to offer.

ONE OF MY TOP10 BREEDS
ONE OF MY TOP50 BREEDS
I WISHD ID HAD 5 COLLIES
I WISHD ID HAD 7 COLLIES
I have seven Rough Collies and love them
Would you consider doing a video about Standard Poodles?
Any Lassie TV shows or movies that I was not around yet to see I watched in reruns. I love them all and Lassie is still one of my favorite TV shows LOL I am at the age now that smaller dogs are easier for me to have so I went to having Shelties. They are not the same breed but have the same temperament as well as both outer and inner beauty. Collies and Shelties are definitely two of my favorite breeds although I like all dogs!
The Cricket Chronicles has a good youtube channel with their Shelties, 💖🐶😊
I love watching dog videos.
eegegeggeeheheehehehehehe bunny
Can you dog living with rough collies or living with alaskan malamute?
I WISHD ID HAD SOME DAY 7 COLLIES
Thanks for another excellent video. My family has had a couple of collies, and they are wonderful dogs.
My love also started with the show Lassie and still remember so fondly. I just wish my pets weren't harmed here.
I have one
I really want a collie but I work a full time job. I got my first collie when I was 12 and I trained him to go off leash in a field and on our lawn in just 3 weeks at the age of 15 weeks. I work a full time job and I am going to give him 1 hour of field exercise in the morning and 1-2 hours when I come home. I will also be paying a neighbourhood kid to walk my dog around the block and play with him in my backyard for a bit. Do you think my dog will be ok.
Thank you for a direct informativeness to the point of information regarding the Rough Collie!!! 😊💜🐕 I have been blessed with a now 10 weeks of age, Amazing Collie. The Lord blesses every moment of my Life What an Angelic breed. 💕 🌞💖🎉🌟💜🎉🐕
I have never heard a good comment about the health of collies. They are plagued problems.
Just lost my Kit he was cooler than I. 14 years we had and all were the best. Now we have a few weeks before we pick up a brother and sister. Thanks for the video.

So wunderful Charactere , sweet heart and in all lovely dog. ( Colly)
I love my collie so much. She is the most loyal companion and is VERY protective of me. She does make a great guard dog.
I grew up with a collie and she was amazing and gentle.
I have a tri colored rough collie named Jovie
I've had two rough sable collies, and they were the best dogs ever. Sweet, loving, intelligent, and great watch dogs.
Fabulous dog great company full faithful love
I seen two today never seen them up close . Always assumed they were the same size as Shelties pretty large dogs beautiful!
I really, like REALLY want a rough collie, but I have a question. Are they likely to dig in the garden or make an actual mess out of it?
Thank you so much and looking forward to your answer.
Why are collies faces so weird. They look like their eyes don't match their face. They are too small or the skin looks stretched over their eyes.
Someday I am going to have a Tricolor Rough Collie and who knows a Samble too. Love this breed! ❤
