Mable you could help at a collie rescue? Collies will chase everything and even mine at 55lb is hard to control. Glad you like the video , there will be more to come. Please keep watching!
I had to put my rough down 3 days ago. She was 14, I adopted her at 6 yrs. I'm 75 and adopted her worried that she wouldn't get the exercise needed as I lived in an apartment but even at 70 I had no problem with that as Collies are just as happy napping in the corner as running free. I was a volunteer at the local kill shelter and that's how we met. Get one you'll never be sorry.
@@lunaazule1899 I am so sorry that your Rough Collie has gone over the Rainbow Bridge. I know exactly what you mean about collie temperament. We have two herding dogs and for the first two years it was go go go. All of a sudden they are happy to just laze around the house. I know there is nothing I can say to make you feel better about your loss. I am sure I speak for everyone on the channel that out thought are with you.
I cried during this video. Our collie passed away a year ago, just 1 month short of 13 years old. Your collie looks almost exactly like my Bailey, who I miss so much. I've decided not to get another one right now, since we travel a lot. I don't miss the fur on the floor, but the love was priceless.
You sound like a wonderful dog owner. Sometimes people do realize the commitment that it takes. Our ability to leave at a moments notice for travel is all but gone. The reward is so great and would not trade it. But some days I do miss the ability to be free for anything.
Miss my collies soooo much. I've had 2 over the last 3 decades. I look at other breeds as I'm going to get another dog. I ALWAYS go back to the collie. Love the breed and this video was perfect!
my brother got one for his 10th birthday. when he got older and moved into an apt, i took it to my house. loved him terribly. he was also a sable, and he lived 15 yrs. i also had 2 others, a mix, a 3/4 sheltie, and 3 border collies (one of whom is laying on my bed right now lol). have always loved these herding breeds ☺.
I (12 year old female) somehow, convinced my parents to get me a rough collie this year! :-) After wanting a dog for so long I finally got one and his name is Sidney and he is five months old. He is the cutest ever and I cannot wait for our journeys. xxx
Mine would never except food or water from strangers. My collie would always look to me first to see if she could eat what a friend of mine was offering. She was so smart.
Hi! I'm thinking of getting a Sheltie next year! I have a garden and a decent sized house. Definitely not too big. How much exercise do you give him a day? And do you do agility, or obedience training. Is agility compulsory? As I don't have a club like that near me. I can do training in my garden (more complicated stuff) and long walks, fetch , frizbee, and biking but with biking I don't want to hurt his joints so I'll have to wait until a year old, and with a slow pace, sometimes a fast pace and lots of breaks. How do you groom your sheltie? What brushes and what order, do you ever have to use scissors or thinning shears, or can you just brush (excluding the underside of the paw, and nails). How did you socialize him? Please give me tips because I'm worried about that the most, i have a friend who has a golden who I can socialize him with but that's just about it :(. How do you socialize him at dog parks, of pet shops? I hope you can answer my questions! Thanks!!
@@unaestrella1876 all good questions! So we do not have a yard hardly at all and I walk him about twice a day (a mile after everything is said and done). I always make sure to do one big, fun activity with him every week, whether that's the park to walk a few miles or taking him to play with dog friends for an afternoon. We also play in our small front yard often in the afternoon. My husband and I work full-time so I walk him when I come home for lunch and when I get off. He's adapted very well to the schedule. Shelties are very eager to please! As far as grooming, use a fine tooth brush that gets their undercoat. I brush him every week but I should be doing it twice. I have a mobile groomer come to us once every three months. And lastly, in regard to taking out and socializing, don't be afraid of the age! Absolutely take your puppy to parks and such. Of course, not until they have their last round of shots at about 15 weeks. Look into pet stores near you - our Petco has a puppy playtime every Saturday at 1 that they can play for an hour with other puppies up until 7 months old. One of the trainers facilitates it and it teaches them how to play and interact safely.
@@unaestrella1876 you will love having a sheltie! They are one of the easiest dogs to train! I can probably count on both hands how many accidents he had in the house they were so few. I didn't grow up with a dog and I have fallen completely in love with Shelties.
I like this video! A 4 months old girl puppy just arrived in our family; she's so smart and sweet... I had a rough collie when I was a child, I think it's the best breed in the world ;)
We have grown to love ours more each day. The grooming and shedding are not for everyone. Have you named your new Girl? My first choice for a name was Lassie, thought it would be fun to yell it at the dog park.
@@DogThecity Her name is Roxy. Our son chose the name for her. I've been impressed by how well trained your dogs are. How did you teach her to sit, hold and wait for your okay before start eating? Roxy jumps eagerly on her food... Some videos about how to train your dogs would be very useful. :) :)
@@virginiaisabella5717 OMG My mom will be so happy, she has also named her dog Roxy! Excellent name! We started young and it took some work to get her to 'Hold' for food. I would suggest getting you dog used to some every day sounds like the Vacuum Cleaner and Hair Dryer; give them treats when you vacuum so it is a positive experience! Not all fun and easy with a new dog. Watch Cesar Milan videos and be diligent. This first year is important as it is difficult to change bad behavior later on.
@@DogThecity Thank you for your precious advice. Shes very smart and learns quickly. I have the impression she feels ashamed when she does something she knows she shouldn't have done. So sweet :)
@@virginiaisabella5717 My Sheltie know when she is doing something bad and looks guilty. My Collie just goes with if and plays dumb. Guess I am a sucker for a cute face!
OMG! Your little one looks exactly like my little girl.She was a Sheltie /Papillon mix, so she was the papillon size but looked sheltie. Lost her to cancer 6 years ago and she was a gem!!! I have a rough coat Collie now and she is an amazing dog.
The small sheltie was wonderful for getting around NYC. Sheltie Personality and Small Size. I am definitely partial to herding breed, they will chase everything but follow you everywhere and not leave your side!
I adore shelties!! I've had 2. My first was 6 years old when I got him. He lived to 12 when he started having health issues and unfortunately passed from pneumonia. I found my 2nd about 6 months later I had him also 12 years until he got cancer and I had to make the decision to let him go. That was May 7,2020. These videos are great but I cry every time I watch them. Toby was my emotional support buddy. My husband said I could get another but I don't know if I can take losing another sheltie. I'm 65 and would love another but II haven't got over the loss of my others yet. I've had several dogs while growing up but shelties have stolen my heart. They're the best.
Sheltie have the personality of a person. Slowly the Sheltie has begun to run the Household and make the rules to fit in her schedule Many other out there also agree that Shelties are a most wonderful breed!
I’ve always had collies and the funniest things about is how fast they run cause they can do such tight turns and I call my dog thunder puppy when she is hyper and also they’re snouts are soooo long lady is my best dog
Absolutely gorgeous Collie :) I recently got my first Rough Collie and he is now 4 months old. I have always wanted a Rough Collie since I was a little girl and my dream has come true! I am in crazy love with Colin and even though of him being in a little puppy has been overload of cuteness, I am really looking forward seeing him all grown up and watch him how handsome boy he is going to be :)
Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful videos. We will be getting our Collie from PA, at the beginning of November. We are so excited and your videos were very informative.
this makes me miss my collie so much. she was the best dog. she passed when i was 13, saddest day of my life but im 22 now and i hope i can adopt one soon
I just got two 8-week-old rough collies three days ago. They are so full of love and playfulness, but they are definitely a handful. Jovi & Jewel, I will do a video like this with them...
OMG I miss my rough collie so much after watching this. Unfortunately my collie's hips went and had to put him down. Thank you for bringing the some joy back into my life. I sincerely hope your collie doesn't go through what mine did. Cheers.
My Collie always wants to have is hips massaged. I am wondering if they hurt already. She is only 18 months old. I know it will be an issue when she is older
@Jane Cartwright im looking for my first collie, and I want her to live a long life with no health issues like hip displacement. Does the breeder you know only offer them to friends and family or do they give to anyone willing to care for them (at a cost i know). If they do can you tell me who they or their business name, I dont mind the distance unless if you're outside of the US.
I have had collies most of my adult life. My current pup is Lelani (11yo) and our late puppy a harlequin blue Merle collie, Kakoa would have been 16 months today. He arrived on 8/18/23 and we lost him to an accident on8/18/24. Please love your four legged babies. Hug them often and enjoy your time with them as their time is too short but the love they return is immense
We just lost ours this year and I miss him so much. We had a smooth tri-collie and he was the loves of our life. Very loving, very playful Male who liked playing agility games and walking. He had a loving personality and loves his crunchie and his water games backyard. I miss him so much. Best dog in the world.
You have just described out dog exactly. They have some many wonderful traits and so diverse. I am sorry for you loss. Only a dog owner really understand the bond we have with out dogs.
Love your beautiful collie. We just put ours down 3 days ago. he wasn’t doing so good. We had him 16 years and unfortunately we had to say goodbye so that he would be free in his spirit away from the pain he was in 🥺💓 this video gave me comfort, thank you!
Your Rough collie is utmost heartwarming and so lovely to watch run and do whatever it is up to, I wish to have any major tips and advice on taking care of a rough collie and or tricks on how to make my dog silent and not bark all the time. - Your humble doctor
Someone once told me to train for 'In-Door' Bark. They must have been tired of hearing my dog bark at the dog show all the time. Rough Collies seem to be random barkers at the most strange things.
Gwen I’m 62 and we are getting our Akita puppy at the end of September. Our female Akita is 12 and we don’t have much time with her. After I get my Akita boy trained I am getting a collie. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis. I can’t take the medications that would prevent bone and joint damage. We just do pain management. I intend to live every moment to the fullest. My dogs are necessary for my peace of mind and my heart. I just train or have them trained early so I’m not wrestling a badly behaved large dog. Go for it Gwen!
@@tiffanylosh1579 After a year our collie got super cuddly. The first six months with a dog is a challenge and learning process. Glad to hear things are going well
@@DogThecity I live on the island of Oahu although at the moment I am visiting my brother in Tracy, Ca., who is thinking about getting a Rough Collie. Aloha :-)
@@16brenlee Spent 10 years in Hawaii on and off. 5yr on the Big Island , year on Kauai, and the rest in Oahu. I miss surfing & Waikiki . My dogs definitely love the cold of the mountains in Colorado. I miss living on the ocean! - Aloha
@@DogThecity I moved to Oahu by myself in 1986 where I met my husband who was born there. I would love to move to the Big Island but my husband wants to stay in his parents house. Funny I am not a beach person but love the warm weather and the sun which is why I moved there. There is no other place for me, I love Hawaii! But you are right in saying that dogs love the cold. My brother use to take his Aussies to Lake Tahoe where they really came alive in the snow. :-)
Some people are against Pure Breed dogs. Some people are only happy when they are unhappy and push their unhappiness to others. Keep POSITIVE and keep watching!
I grew up with a collie; named Miele. Incredible animal. After he died, my family got involved with German Shepherds which we've owned, bred, trained & shown both here in the States as well as in Germany. I, still to this day think of Miele! As great as the Shepherds are; i still miss Miele. The 2 breeds share similarities; strong prey drive, enjoy doing obedience, loyal & protective. But, the collie is more sensitive and docile around the house. I have many ask me, because they know how much i love the German Shepherd; if i were to get involved with another breed, what would it be, a Doberman, Rottweiler, Belgian Malinois, Giant Schnauzer? I say no to all; i tell them it would most definitely be a collie, hands down! The older i get the more I'm becoming more drawn to my child hood dog, the collie. Yes, i have a 2 year old male German Shepherd now, plenty of both time and room for a great Collie puppy too. I truly enjoyed watching the video, took me down memory lane; got me thinking once again,,,,,,,
Thank you for sharing, i have a sable 7 month old male rough Collie. He weighs 66 pounds now, he is huge compared to my two shelties. He is such a love bug. He adores my wife. We call him a termite as he loves to find wood from the back yard and drag up close a chew on it.
Wonderful and beautiful. Thank you! I'm trying to watch for temperament and tendencies. I'd love it if you'd do a, "things I wish I knew about owning a Collie" or a "life in the day of" or a "pros and cons..." Those videos are priceless in researching breeds.
I never had collies but as a child I remember seeing them walk on the street with my neighbor. He had 3 incredibly smart collies that didn’t even need a leash. They were majestic and so intelligent. Pretty much the entire city (200k people) stopped to watch as he passed through the streets. Everyone wanted to pet them. They were pretty much the celebrities of my town. I always wanted to have one until I started to read more about the breed and realized it wasn’t a match. They need a lot of exercise and fun activities to keep them happy and healthy. I am more of a couch potato. 😊
This has been my fav video of yours, our aussie passed away May during covid. We got a new rough collie in July, it seems like we watch this each month, to see the stage of where our collie pup Nova should be! Thx!
It is really amazing the change that happens they go from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly. I though out R Collie was a bit slower than most to develop,
@@DogThecity we have 4 in our family, lucca, ollie, Elmer and Walter. 3 sable and white and 1 tricolour. They are special beyond belief!!!! When I was 5 I had our simba he passed away @the age of 14 in 1985, I think about him a lot to this day and I still miss him beyond words.
@@nelvaldo.4850 I had a wonderful Mutt growing up but I feel that Rough Collies are super majestic. I can not imaging the sound when all your dogs get barking together!
We got a collie puppy some time ago too and he actually looks really similar to yours! Right now he's about 4 months old and hes already getting lots of attention from people since collies aren't very common where I live. I really love him :') ❤️💖😍
I had a collie since birth named Larson sadly we had to put down and that destroyed me and this morning my parents have told us we will be getting another one so I can’t wait to have fun times with the little guy
So sorry about your collie. Best of luck on your new search. I think collie are the perfect dog. The way our collie was as a puppy and now two years later is completely different. Sorry again for your loss and good luck on the new dog search.
Hi there. A very nice video of the growth transition over 12 months. Your dog looks wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I'm one of those eternal owners-to-be as i live in a flat and its a bit difficult to convince my wife to accept a dog in the apartment. I'm contending with a choice over a white swiss shepherd or a dogue de bordeaux for quite sometime now but the rough collie was one of my first breeds of choice. Your video made me reconsider that. How well do they do in apartment life. Thank you again for sharing the wonderful footage. Take care.
Great Comment! Our dogs are Hearding Dog so they need a lot of exercise. You need to be very dedicated to raise an active dog in an apartment. We walk three time a day rain, snow, or sunshine. To keep you dogs happy with out any behavior issues you need to keep them active. A tired dog is a happy dog and happy owner. The dogs are like my kids so I have lots of spare time to delicate to them. Also having an elevator is a big plus if you dont live on the group floor. Our Collie mellowed out very fast and at two years she is much less active the our 4 year old sheltie. Sure you would be a great dog owner as you are asking the correct questions. It is a commitment of 14-16 years of life, glad you are taking it seriously!
@@DogThecity Hi there. Thanks for the reply. When I envisage becoming a dog owner is pretty much in the way of "adopting" a pet-child. 😊 I would like for them to become a part of the family and the family life in all our daily routines, as much as us adapting to their needs and somehow changing our habits to meet them in terms of exercise. I'm a great fan of the outdoors and enjoy going for very long hikes and weekend escapades that allow for the opportunity to explore and walking around in the mountains, seaside or within city areas or suburbs. I wouldn't dream of having a dog to leave him behind at home while the family goes away, even if we're just going out to get some groceries. I'm a firm believer that a pet can become a true friend and a creature that you can grow to love and care so much for. I live close to the beach - a 25m walk from the house - and around my neighbourhood there are a few nice city parks with specific areas for dogs, where they can run and play with other dogs. I thought of getting a rough collie because 1. I love the "boy-scout" soul of the breed and 2. Even if they require exercise like all dogs do, they're not as high-energy as other sheep-herding breeds (border collie, malinois, etc) and 3. They seem to be quite happy lying around the house if you give them those 2 or 3 daily walks for them to burn steam. Anyway, for the moment it's just one of those long-cherished dreams I hope life will give me the opportunity to fulfill some day in the near future. Take good care and continue posting videos. It's my daily bliss - dusting my dreams with other people's video happiness. Cheers 😉✌️
Very interesting for me to watch: I have a 16 week old RC (and I got one aged 6). They are beautiful dogs - both to look at and temperament. I'm hoping to get the grandson of my eldest (if he's ever born). I'd like another blue merle but a boy this time.
My male rough collie passed 19 yrs ago, I cry when I see this video. I'm 64 years old and would die for the chance to have another one.
Mable you could help at a collie rescue? Collies will chase everything and even mine at 55lb is hard to control. Glad you like the video , there will be more to come. Please keep watching!

I’ve always had collies and the funniest things about is how fast they run cause they can do such tight turns and I call my dog thunder puppy when she is hyper and also they’re snouts are soooo long lady is my best dog
Thunder Puppy! What a great nick name
What a beautiful Collie!
Thank You!
Excellent video= beautiful dog, scenery, and dogs. GOOD JOB! I see you take great care of the collies.
These dog are our treasures and priceless to us
I sheltie and collie mix....they're sweet dogs. Mine passed away at 4 years old. I miss my little fur baby.
The are certainly like a cuddly teddy bear with all that fur
Had a collie when I was a kid, brilliant at football miss him called him laddie gorgeous dog 🐶
They are really quite stunning and majestic dogs!
Wowwwwww... CONGRATS!! Yo tengo una cachorrita... Espero y crezca así.... Es mi adoración...!!!
Both of your dogs are just beautiful. Enjoy them!!!
Absolutely gorgeous Collie :) I recently got my first Rough Collie and he is now 4 months old. I have always wanted a Rough Collie since I was a little girl and my dream has come true! I am in crazy love with Colin and even though of him being in a little puppy has been overload of cuteness, I am really looking forward seeing him all grown up and watch him how handsome boy he is going to be :)
Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful videos. We will be getting our Collie from PA, at the beginning of November. We are so excited and your videos were very informative.
HI do you have your collie picked out all ready?? We got our collie from NJ and she has been a wonderful dog
this makes me miss my collie so much. she was the best dog. she passed when i was 13, saddest day of my life but im 22 now and i hope i can adopt one soon
They are an amazing breed. They quite rare now so everyone on the street wants to stop and talk to you.
You will not regret it.
I just got two 8-week-old rough collies three days ago. They are so full of love and playfulness, but they are definitely a handful. Jovi & Jewel, I will do a video like this with them...
Beautiful Dogs. :)
You are so kind
I've got a 9 year old rough collie and my dad just got a 6 month old collie, beautiful dogs
They are very stunning, still amazed how beautiful!
OMG I miss my rough collie so much after watching this. Unfortunately my collie's hips went and had to put him down. Thank you for bringing the some joy back into my life. I sincerely hope your collie doesn't go through what mine did. Cheers.
My Collie always wants to have is hips massaged. I am wondering if they hurt already. She is only 18 months old. I know it will be an issue when she is older
@Jane Cartwright im looking for my first collie, and I want her to live a long life with no health issues like hip displacement. Does the breeder you know only offer them to friends and family or do they give to anyone willing to care for them (at a cost i know). If they do can you tell me who they or their business name, I dont mind the distance unless if you're outside of the US.
I have had collies most of my adult life. My current pup is Lelani (11yo) and our late puppy a harlequin blue Merle collie, Kakoa would have been 16 months today. He arrived on 8/18/23 and we lost him to an accident on8/18/24. Please love your four legged babies. Hug them often and enjoy your time with them as their time is too short but the love they return is immense
Precious 💙 collies are the best 🥰
They are truly an amazing breed, surprised they are not more popular
Congratulations!! Your dogs are so cute, beautiful and I am happy they have a very nice life with interesting activities. Kisses and hugs from Brazil.
So cute I would love to see you more sheltie videos
The Sheltie is so wonderful. She is a bit stubborn and runs the house. She is the one bossing us around. See if I can get some more videos of her.
A Beautiful Collie...😍👏
You are so kind
We just lost ours this year and I miss him so much. We had a smooth tri-collie and he was the loves of our life. Very loving, very playful Male who liked playing agility games and walking. He had a loving personality and loves his crunchie and his water games backyard. I miss him so much. Best dog in the world.
You have just described out dog exactly. They have some many wonderful traits and so diverse. I am sorry for you loss. Only a dog owner really understand the bond we have with out dogs.
Beautiful dog
Thank you very much!
Love your beautiful collie. We just put ours down 3 days ago. he wasn’t doing so good. We had him 16 years and unfortunately we had to say goodbye so that he would be free in his spirit away from the pain he was in 🥺💓 this video gave me comfort, thank you!
So sorry for your loss. 16 years is amazing life span. Must have been the most loyal dog ever!
Just beautiful!!
I am still amazed at the beauty!
I think im getting a collie this year im pretty excited
They are a most wonderful breed! Make sure you find an excellent breeder so the temperament matches.
Adorable
Beautiful dog!!
Thank you for the kind comments
Your Rough collie is utmost heartwarming and so lovely to watch run and do whatever it is up to, I wish to have any major tips and advice on taking care of a rough collie and or tricks on how to make my dog silent and not bark all the time.
- Your humble doctor
Someone once told me to train for 'In-Door' Bark. They must have been tired of hearing my dog bark at the dog show all the time. Rough Collies seem to be random barkers at the most strange things.
Gwen I’m 62 and we are getting our Akita puppy at the end of September. Our female Akita is 12 and we don’t have much time with her. After I get my Akita boy trained I am getting a collie. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis. I can’t take the medications that would prevent bone and joint damage. We just do pain management. I intend to live every moment to the fullest. My dogs are necessary for my peace of mind and my heart. I just train or have them trained early so I’m not wrestling a badly behaved large dog. Go for it Gwen!
I am wising you the best and there is nothing like the love of a dog. Treasure every moment you have!
I just got a collie a couple months ago and I love him 😊
How is the new Collie going?
Really good he’s such a smart pup
@@tiffanylosh1579 After a year our collie got super cuddly. The first six months with a dog is a challenge and learning process. Glad to hear things are going well
Awesome video thanks for sharing. Beautiful Collie! Aloha :-)
Thanks for the wonderful comments!!
Aloha - What island are you on?
Mahalo - Dog & The city
@@DogThecity I live on the island of Oahu although at the moment I am visiting my brother in Tracy, Ca., who is thinking about getting a Rough Collie. Aloha :-)
@@16brenlee Spent 10 years in Hawaii on and off. 5yr on the Big Island , year on Kauai, and the rest in Oahu. I miss surfing & Waikiki . My dogs definitely love the cold of the mountains in Colorado. I miss living on the ocean! - Aloha
@@DogThecity I moved to Oahu by myself in 1986 where I met my husband who was born there. I would love to move to the Big Island but my husband wants to stay in his parents house. Funny I am not a beach person but love the warm weather and the sun which is why I moved there. There is no other place for me, I love Hawaii! But you are right in saying that dogs love the cold. My brother use to take his Aussies to Lake Tahoe where they really came alive in the snow. :-)
@@16brenlee There is something about living in Hawaii, you have many options at you doorstep - Aloha
Beautiful dog smart
You are so kind
when i was born we had a collie, her name was lassie and i was convinced she was the one on the tv! best dog ever
That was my choose for a name also ' Lassie ' but I was over ruled on that decision.
What a glow up
Thank you for your kind comments!
Beautiful my favorite breed. Had a sable n a blus merle
They are really just an amazing breed. They are so different from when you first meet them
Why would anyone dislike this video. So jealous.
Some people are against Pure Breed dogs. Some people are only happy when they are unhappy and push their unhappiness to others.
Keep POSITIVE and keep watching!
I grew up with a collie; named Miele. Incredible animal. After he died, my family got involved with German Shepherds which we've owned, bred, trained & shown both here in the States as well as in Germany. I, still to this day think of Miele! As great as the Shepherds are; i still miss Miele. The 2 breeds share similarities; strong prey drive, enjoy doing obedience, loyal & protective. But, the collie is more sensitive and docile around the house. I have many ask me, because they know how much i love the German Shepherd; if i were to get involved with another breed, what would it be, a Doberman, Rottweiler, Belgian Malinois, Giant Schnauzer? I say no to all; i tell them it would most definitely be a collie, hands down! The older i get the more I'm becoming more drawn to my child hood dog, the collie. Yes, i have a 2 year old male German Shepherd now, plenty of both time and room for a great Collie puppy too.
I truly enjoyed watching the video, took me down memory lane; got me thinking once again,,,,,,,
Thank you for sharing, i have a sable 7 month old male rough Collie. He weighs 66 pounds now, he is huge compared to my two shelties. He is such a love bug. He adores my wife. We call him a termite as he loves to find wood from the back yard and drag up close a chew on it.
I know I do not understand the obsession with Wood & Sticks. Sounds like they are similar!
Enjoy your beautiful collie, I have a male 14 year old,love him to death
Have you had collie since a puppy
Jaka slodka!!!!
Wonderful and beautiful. Thank you! I'm trying to watch for temperament and tendencies. I'd love it if you'd do a, "things I wish I knew about owning a Collie" or a "life in the day of" or a "pros and cons..." Those videos are priceless in researching breeds.
I never had collies but as a child I remember seeing them walk on the street with my neighbor. He had 3 incredibly smart collies that didn’t even need a leash. They were majestic and so intelligent. Pretty much the entire city (200k people) stopped to watch as he passed through the streets. Everyone wanted to pet them. They were pretty much the celebrities of my town. I always wanted to have one until I started to read more about the breed and realized it wasn’t a match. They need a lot of exercise and fun activities to keep them happy and healthy. I am more of a couch potato. 😊
This has been my fav video of yours, our aussie passed away May during covid. We got a new rough collie in July, it seems like we watch this each month, to see the stage of where our collie pup Nova should be! Thx!
It is really amazing the change that happens they go from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly. I though out R Collie was a bit slower than most to develop,
Omg so cute! I had a collie when I was a kid. She was the most amazing dog I ever owned
i grow up with collies dogs and still have collis , the love is wonderful
Chris you are so lucky
All dogs are amazing, but rough collies are another level.
That is what I think also but I admin to being biased!!
@@DogThecity we have 4 in our family, lucca, ollie, Elmer and Walter. 3 sable and white and 1 tricolour. They are special beyond belief!!!! When I was 5 I had our simba he passed away @the age of 14 in 1985, I think about him a lot to this day and I still miss him beyond words.
@@nelvaldo.4850 I had a wonderful Mutt growing up but I feel that Rough Collies are super majestic. I can not imaging the sound when all your dogs get barking together!
Watching this video wit my 6 month old rough collie pop hes my best boy fr
I love both breeds! Had one of each myself but tri- colored, that's my favorite,miss them both!!
I totally agree! Amazing Breed!
Beautiful
Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland.
Sie sind beide so süß ❤️
We got a collie puppy some time ago too and he actually looks really similar to yours! Right now he's about 4 months old and hes already getting lots of attention from people since collies aren't very common where I live. I really love him :') ❤️💖😍
Rough Collie are very rare, Outside of a Dog Show I have only seen two in Colorado
Beautiful😍😍😍
Hello. It's a huge Pomeranian Ritz. It's cute ♫ I subscribed to the channel.
Thanks and welcome
Ich liebe collis über alles so schön im hundenest zu schlafen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love collie
I had a collie since birth named Larson sadly we had to put down and that destroyed me and this morning my parents have told us we will be getting another one so I can’t wait to have fun times with the little guy
So sorry about your collie. Best of luck on your new search. I think collie are the perfect dog. The way our collie was as a puppy and now two years later is completely different. Sorry again for your loss and good luck on the new dog search.
I would definitely buy one from you.
I sure miss my Collies
Sorry, we are happy to share .....
@@DogThecity Thank You 😊
👌👍💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 BEAUTIFUL!!!👏💕 I love colie and Sheltie 💕 Maťa from Slovakia. Bye💞🍀
Thanks You !!!!
Bellissimo ..il mio primo cane è stato un collie uguale a lui..amavo quella creatura..non lo dimenticherò mai..💙💙
She is beautiful! We have a 6month old tri-color and he is a handful :) big drama queen, but such a sweetheart.
Ours really started to calm down at 11 months but is still a Handful
Hi there. A very nice video of the growth transition over 12 months. Your dog looks wonderful. Thank you for sharing. I'm one of those eternal owners-to-be as i live in a flat and its a bit difficult to convince my wife to accept a dog in the apartment. I'm contending with a choice over a white swiss shepherd or a dogue de bordeaux for quite sometime now but the rough collie was one of my first breeds of choice. Your video made me reconsider that. How well do they do in apartment life. Thank you again for sharing the wonderful footage. Take care.
Great Comment! Our dogs are Hearding Dog so they need a lot of exercise. You need to be very dedicated to raise an active dog in an apartment. We walk three time a day rain, snow, or sunshine. To keep you dogs happy with out any behavior issues you need to keep them active. A tired dog is a happy dog and happy owner. The dogs are like my kids so I have lots of spare time to delicate to them. Also having an elevator is a big plus if you dont live on the group floor. Our Collie mellowed out very fast and at two years she is much less active the our 4 year old sheltie. Sure you would be a great dog owner as you are asking the correct questions. It is a commitment of 14-16 years of life, glad you are taking it seriously!
@@DogThecity Hi there. Thanks for the reply. When I envisage becoming a dog owner is pretty much in the way of "adopting" a pet-child. 😊 I would like for them to become a part of the family and the family life in all our daily routines, as much as us adapting to their needs and somehow changing our habits to meet them in terms of exercise. I'm a great fan of the outdoors and enjoy going for very long hikes and weekend escapades that allow for the opportunity to explore and walking around in the mountains, seaside or within city areas or suburbs. I wouldn't dream of having a dog to leave him behind at home while the family goes away, even if we're just going out to get some groceries. I'm a firm believer that a pet can become a true friend and a creature that you can grow to love and care so much for. I live close to the beach - a 25m walk from the house - and around my neighbourhood there are a few nice city parks with specific areas for dogs, where they can run and play with other dogs. I thought of getting a rough collie because 1. I love the "boy-scout" soul of the breed and 2. Even if they require exercise like all dogs do, they're not as high-energy as other sheep-herding breeds (border collie, malinois, etc) and 3. They seem to be quite happy lying around the house if you give them those 2 or 3 daily walks for them to burn steam. Anyway, for the moment it's just one of those long-cherished dreams I hope life will give me the opportunity to fulfill some day in the near future. Take good care and continue posting videos. It's my daily bliss - dusting my dreams with other people's video happiness. Cheers 😉✌️
Happy 1st Birthday from our Prince who is 8yrs. God bless
Please say a happy to Woof Woof to ' Prince '
They grow so fast! 😢
I know amazing!
Sometimes I miss our dog dutchess
Each Dog Touches our heart differently! Sending best thoughts to ' Dutchess '
CUTE!!!!!😂🤩😍
Thank You!
Habe auch ein 4 jährigen colie aufgenommen er brauchte ein Zuhause. Tolle Rasse total ein Familienhund
I love the collie Lassie the Reginald collie dog
Very interesting for me to watch: I have a 16 week old RC (and I got one aged 6). They are beautiful dogs - both to look at and temperament. I'm hoping to get the grandson of my eldest (if he's ever born). I'd like another blue merle but a boy this time.
They change so fast, one day that puppy is an adult dog!
Beautiful! Mine was the same color!
Very traditional markings for Rough Collie
Sable is definitely my favourite
