The border collie is an intelligent, hard-working dog. They thrive on praise, and are the leading competitors in agility, herding, and obedience. Borders are very energetic and have good stamina.
My dog Dutchess is a border mix. This is a picture of her. Here are some pics of pure bred borders (who are cute, but not even close to being as cute as my Dutchy)
Border collies are good with childeren provided they get enough exercise. They need consistant leadership, daily romps, and a job to keep them occupied. They wouldn't be very good for apartment life. They live about 12-15 years and have an average of 4-8 puppies per litter.
