About Collies by Niki Buchen.
Collies also “think” they are also great “lap” dogs. Collies are such an easy breed to collect, as there is so much available. They have been popular for so long, due to their charm and great beauty. Collies are both intelligent and sensitive, which can make them a joy to train. These traits combined with their independence can cause trouble. Collies should be tested for eye and hip problems. Collies have a life span of 12 to 16 years. Collies have had an enduring grip on the United Kingdom for centuries, and this has to do with their lack of aggressiveness, timidity, reticence, and negative mood. Collie puppies housetrain quickly, generally in about a week (after about 10-12 weeks old). They are good-natured, friendly, dogs. Collie Club of America’s collie rescue organization list : not all groups that rescue Collies are here, but it is a long list and a place to start. Google search “Collie Rescue” turns up hundreds of thousands of hits. Collies are generally medium-sized dogs of between 10 kg and 25 kg (22-55 lb), fairly lightly built with a pointed snout and erect or partly erect ears, giving a foxy impression. Cattle-herding types tend to be rather more stocky.
