When ever most people think of a Border Collie, the most famous Border Collie probably comes to mind, Lassie. Border Collies are herding dogs. They were used all over Scotland and England to control flocks of sheep and they are still used all over the world today, to work on farms and ranches as herders. These are one of the most beautiful dogs of any breed. They are also very loving, affectionate and loyal dogs. Collies are extremely intelligent and very trainable and have an unending amount of stamina and energy. They are often seen in canine events, competing in canine athletic sporting events and obedience. These are very popular dogs among dog owners who want a smart and trainable dog, as well as one who is active and loves to get out and have fun with them or the whole family. To this day, Lassie has played a role in keeping this breed on the list as one of the most popular breeds owned.
