The detail
Bred on the Scottish border to gather sheep with an intense stare and tireless work ethic, the Border Collie is widely considered the most trainable dog there is. That brilliance comes with a need for real daily work, not just walks.
What to weigh
Without a job, a Border Collie turns its drive on cars, shadows, children or your furniture. It needs hours of physical and mental work every day, and it can be sound-sensitive and obsessive.
