The bearded collie probably originated in Scotland and
northern England in the 16th century. Originally used for herding sheep, it
has become increasingly popular as a family pet. The
Old English sheepdog and the
Border collie are both descendants of
the bearded collie. Bearded collies are loving, affectionate, eager to
please, and do well in obedience classes. They enjoy being around people,
including children (whom they may try to herd) and other animals. They may
bark when visitors arrive but are not known for protecting property.
Beardies can live happily in rural, urban, and suburban settings as long as
they get enough exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation. The bearded
collie's outer coat is medium-length, straight, and harsh in texture; the
undercoat is soft. Coat color is black, blue, brown, or fawn with white
markings. The bearded collie needs to be brushed and combed at least once a
week to avoid matting. This playful, energetic dog needs long, vigorous
walks and daily playtime. |
