i feel kind of annoying for how much i tend to recommend collies whenever people ask for breed suggestions, but also i do think it's true! they are such awesome dogs that i think they get overlooked a lot and i need to do my part to spread the collie propaganda! like:
"i want a dog that's smart and easy to train" collie
"but i need a dog that won't go insane if i can't do high-level training or take a lazy day" collie
"i want a dog that i can do sports like agility, obedience, rally, barnhunt, nosework, etc with" collie
"i want a dog that i can train as a therapy dog or service dog prospect" collie
"i want a dog that i can take for long hikes and jogs and can keep up with me all day" collie
"but i don't want a high-energy or destructive dog" collie
"i want a dog that's good off-leash" collie
"i want a dog that gets along peacefully with other dogs, cats, and small animals" collie
"i want a dog that's friendly but not obsessed with making friends with strangers" collie
"i want a dog who will keep watch and alert me to any intruders on my property" collie
"but i don't want a dog who's a bite risk" collie
"i want a dog who's overall healthy and robust with a good lifespan and as few major health problems as possible" collie
"i want a dog who comes in different coat colors" collie
"but i don't want a long-haired dog or one that i have to groom a lot" smooth collie
GET IT TOGETHER, PEOPLE.

Pippa, Rough Collie (4 y/o), Prince & Mott St., New York, NY • “She’s nervous right now – she’s from the suburbs, so she’s trying to figure out what to do. But she’s mellow and very friendly. Collies are excellent family dogs – they love kids, they’re very affectionate. People are afraid of the fur, but we love the fur. Our dogs are like our whole world. Basically the entire house’s art is dog art of some sort. We have a lot of photographs and various signs about ‘hug your Collie.’ All the cheesy stuff.”

New petblr reblog game: How did your pet(s) get their name(s)?
Tessa got her name simply because I liked the name and Buckets got his name because my sister had a dream that we had a golden retriever named Buckets.
