The Border Collie is a very athletic, medium-sized dog that is part of the Herding Group. They were developed for herding sheep along the border between England and Scotland. Their ancestry can be traced back to crosses between the larger, heavier Roman herding dogs and the lighter, smaller, and spitz-type Viking herding dogs.

It is from these agile and compact herding dogs that the modern Border Collie was developed. The AKC recognized the Border Collie in 1995 and they are one of the most popular dog breeds. Border Collies are considered one of the world’s greatest herding dogs and consistently dominate competitive sheepdog trials and other dog sport competitions.

Border Collies are still used as herding and working dogs on farms and ranches today. They are even considered one of the best dog breeds for farms. In addition to making a great companion for an active family, they excel at dog sports like agility, tracking, obedience, and more.
