Hooldus

Iseloom

Kind, sensitive and loyal, often a little reserved with strangers at first. It is attentive and keen to cooperate. It can be vocal and does not cope well with harsh handling.

Liikumine

An hour or more of daily walks and play suits it. Obedience, agility, rally and herding are all good outlets.

Karvahooldus

The short double coat needs a weekly brush and more during seasonal shedding. No trimming is needed.

Koolitus

Learns readily and responds best to gentle, reward-based methods. Work on calm greetings and limit nuisance barking early.

Tervis

Collie eye anomaly and sensitivity to certain drugs (MDR1) are well known in the breed, and hip dysplasia and degenerative myelopathy also occur. Ask the breeder for the parents' eye results and DNA test results.

Tõust

The Smooth Collie shares its roots with the Rough Collie as a Scottish farm dog of the 19th century, and the two were long bred together. It differs mainly in its short, dense coat, which made it a practical drover's dog.

In the home it is affectionate, gentle and quick to read its people's moods. It is usually good with children and other pets, and it likes being included in daily life. It needs regular exercise and something to think about, but it is generally less intense than working sheepdog lines. It is uncommon, so finding a puppy can take time.

Kas teadsid?

In Britain the Smooth and Rough Collie were treated as one breed for many years, and both coat types could appear in the same litter.
