BEARDED COLLIE

History - The Bearded Collie probably originated from the central European Magyar Komondor or Lowland Polish Sheepdog.  Some records show that they were brought to Scotland in the 1500s. These dogs herded sheep and cattle over rough terrain in the cold Scottish winters.  The AKC recognized the breed in 1977.  It has become a prominent showdog and is still a capable herder.

Temperament - This breed is lively and  playful, full of energy and enthusiasm.  It is obedient and smart. It likes  children, but may be too rambunctious for small children.

Upkeep - This dog needs a lot of exercise.  It enjoys a long walk or a romp in the park.  They prefer to live outside where it is cool and have access to the family.  Its coat needs combed every other day.

Size - Both males and females can reach  weights of 45-55 pounds and heights of 22 inches.
