• Border Collie Breed Standard The Border Collie originated in the border country between Scotland and England where the shepherds' breeding selection was based on biddable stock sense and the ability to work long days on rugged terrain. As a result of this selective breeding, the Border Collie developed the unique working style of gathering and fetching the stock with wide sweeping outruns. • Border Collie Dog - Breed Information The Border Collie's rootstock is of western European origin, with northern England and Scotland being the specific areas of development. People wanting specific herding characteristics isolated individual dogs exhibiting those traits and bred them, thereby developing a "pure breed." The Border Collie breed was established just over 100 years ago. • Border Collie Dog Pictures A collection of photos and pictures of Border Collies.
