the thing about collies being protective of children is very true. my grandparents had one, and when I was baby and I was sleeping, he'd sleep outside my door and get not aggressive but defensive over anyone that tried to come in, also he'd let me sleep on him and he'd protect me while I was sleeping. he did the same for my cousins. and he was also incredibly intelligent

I know right!??! I just love brushing the family I live with's collie, Lily. Lily doesn't like being brushed but she lets me because she knows if she's good while being brushed she gets a treat.

I've never had a collie, but my dad did, and he always holds them in very high regard, especially since the collie protected his wife from an invader once.

I miss my collie, Randy was my best friend growing up. My family had him for 14 years but I knew him for 12 of those years. out of all the pets I have lost, Randy was one of the hardest. Even now nine years later, I still tear up about it. Collies are wonderful dogs, and make amazing friends.

Lassie is the reason the collie is my favorite breed of dog

My collie, Winston, is the best ever! He's a fast learner (learnt how to sit in 1 day and potty trained in 3 days), he likes attention and bonding (loves to hug me, literally hug both paws around me and head on shoulder) and he always seeks me or my fiance's approval before venturing off into unknown terroritory, and he loves to express his feelings (talks a LOT)

I tried to teach my collie to keep her ears folded, but as foolish as she is, she keeps one up and one down. She's a complete nut and I love her the way she is. Loved this video.

I have a rough collie and he is by far the best natured dog I have ever owned. So intelligent and loyal xx

My rough collie was 2 years old when I was born. She apparently was extremely protective of me and would herd me places as soon as I could walk. She was the sweetest dog ever and passed when I was 12. Although I must say, she wasn’t the brightest but she was so incredibly sweet. She lived until she was 14, I still miss her

I think the only thing I would of changed on this info video, was about the shedding, yes Collies shed but not as bad as people think, at least not when the collie is on a good diet, males shed once a year normally around their birthdays, females twice a year around their heat cycles, they don't shed like other breeds, I have fostered many breeds of dogs including Golden Retrievers, St. Bernards and so on! and the Goldens shed way .. WAY!... way more than a collie does. I think they should info people how they shed, because the general public might like they going to come home one day to find a whole other dog in the amount of coat one might shed, and its not like that with collies Especially if the collie gets a brushing even only once a month!

What's your recommended grooming schedule for a rough collie? I've heard a light brushing a few times a week, plus one long, thorough brushing once a week. How about bathing and groomer visits? Do they need to be trimmed pretty often, in your experience? I'm hoping within the next couple of years I can get a collie. I just adore them!

@WildeManorCollies

9 жыл бұрын

superchubbles I recommend brushing them as puppies although they wont need it for grooming but for learning that brushing is good. I recommend brushing lightly at least once a week, and a full line brushing once a month or twice a month. if your grooming during their shed season then brushing them lightly daily followed by full line brushing once a week. Females shed twice a year and Males once a year. I never trim but that is because I show mine but you can ask a groomer for a trim but that means shaving them down, and I do not recommend that. there long coat actually protects them from the heat and sun because the top layer of outer coat is the one getting hit by the rays of the sun. but the under lining coat it cooler and protects the skin from sunburn. Learning to do line brushing is the best grooming advice I can tell you because that will fully brush them out if done correctly. But I will ad that I take the comb and brush out behind ears and elbows once a week to prevent matting. and I line brush the pants or skirt of a dog twice a month.

Thank you for replying so quickly! Sounds like their coats are easier to care for than I thought, which is awesome. I've been doing plenty of my own research, but it's great to hear from someone with lots of collie experience. I want to do therapy training with my dog, so I definitely want to start with a puppy and get him used to grooming and all kinds of handling from an early, early age. The grooming was one of my biggest concerns, since I've never had a dog with a higher maintenance coat before. But it is sounding more and more doable. :)

I agree

Agreed. I just had a Collie into the grooming salon I work at, and while he had some matting, he wasn't horrible. Besides, it's coat blow time, so the shedding picks up, and it they're not brushed, it can cause mats. I have a Great Pyrenees, and I find that he's not too big of a shedder, but come coat blow time (ie right now), the house is full of fine, white undercoat hair.

That collie herding duck was so cute

I'm gonna get a Collie soon and I'm so excited. I love them so much :)

i remember i was with my friend and my collie started barking at this person who talked to us. it is true that these dogs are protective

I have a collie and a sheltie. They are both so wonderful and loving. I feel blessed to have them in my life. They are fiercely loyal and extremely intelligent. If they are regularly brushed, they will maintain beautiful coats! Everywhere we go, people can't help but stop to admire them! Lord willing, I will always have an amazing Collie.

Damn - so many cool dog breeds. Collies, Belgian Malinois, German Shepherds, Border Collies, and Australian Shepherds to me are five of the most beautiful dogs. Bernese Mountain Dogs are cool. Then of course you got Bearded Collies, Corgies, Old English Sheepdogs, Westies, Beagles, Dachshunds, Poodles, Basset Hounds, Labs, and Golden Retrievers. Decisions, decisions. At some point in time I want to get a dog or two or three but the most difficult thing for me is picking. I love all dogs (not too keen on Rottweilers, Dobermans - at least with their ears cropped, I like them much better when they're floppy, Chihuahuas, and teacup Yorkies). Our old neighbor had a teacup Yorkie and even though he was cute he was too yappy for my taste. So it's going to be tough choosing. Plus I love cats too. Wish I could own and take care of 50 or more :) Dogs and cats are like cheese puffs - you can't resist them and you just can't have one.

rough and smooth collie are pretty their colors are pretty too like the rough and smooth collie colors like sable . tri color. white. and blue merle

i love collies!!! i have a collie and she is so cute

My ex babysitter had one of these dogs. Coincidentally he was named Lassie, but her daughters often nicknamed him "Laddie" and "Pipsqueak" because of his barking. He was a fairly well behaved dog and was allowed in the front yard unlike his dalmatian sister. He was also like a grumpy old man at times meaning that if he's sleeping, don't pet him or he'll bite. Unfortunately he had to be euthanized because of diabetes.

I have one. He so nice!! I love!

As for other grooming, just a little combing behind the ears every so often to prevent matting and I wash him once a year (in spring because it helps to get rid of the wintercoat faster). Collies are some of the easiest dogs to keep, I really don't get how they come up with this intensive grooming bit. Shorthair breeds may require less grooming, but you spend that time picking those short hairs out of your clothes (short hairs go through, long hairs stick on top and can be more easily removed)

I had a rough coat female collie when I was younger. Her name was Babe. She looked just like lassie. She was wicked smart! My mom told me a story of how babe saved my life when I was just a toddler. She lived to be 19. She passed away while watching fireworks on July 4th in my grandmas backyard. I will always miss her. I'm 38 now and I'll never forget her! My dream is to have another collie. They're wonderful companions. Till we meet again Babe!! I love u!

i love my collie and sheltie.

My collie is a white collie with a tan face and a tan spot right above his tail. His ears were taped down by the breeder, but his sister kept pulling the tape out, so one of his ears is folded down, and the other is pricked. I think it makes him look 10 times cuter!

id give anything to have a collie as good as my first dog was

Since I was a child, growing up watching Lassie, I had planned to get a Collie when I had a place of my own. But that massive thick under coat has kept me from doing it. The original Lassie did NOT have that much fur. Collies of old, did not have the coat of fur the modern Collies have. I live in TN and our summers are sweltering with heat and humidity. I just think our summers would be brutal for the modern Collie coat. I also live on several acres of land with all kinds of brush to get stuck in that coat. But should I ever come across a Collie like the Collies in the past, I just might get one. For now, I have Australian Shepherds. Which is how I know what dealing with long fluffy coats are like. But my dogs have nothing like the coat of a rough collie. Although my young one comes pretty close.

I feel like I am the only one who wants to have a dog that is not easy to groom because I fucking love brushing
