Smooth Collies are just a short haired variety of the Rough Collie. The reason why they are becoming extinct is because in the UK they separated the breed from the Rough Collie. In the USA both varieties are bred together and the genetic pool of both varieties is better preserved. It is one breed with two coat types
It would be a sad day if Rough and Smooth Collies became extinct. They can adapt to urban life but would need lots of attention and brushing. Admittedly they need a *job" to do. On farms with attentive families, a Collie would have many things to " supervise". 😂 They don't do well being alone for long periods. The copious brushing and grooming is not really that bad if one accepts this as QD, and Qweekly bonding sessions. My last Collie though, hated brushing. Hope anyone who gets a Collie would have one that does! 😂😂
My family have been two generations of Rough Collie owners and they are fabulous family dogs. If you don't want the grooming the Smooth are perfect. They are a beautiful breed to own. Now I've got Shelties, lovely as well.❤️🇦🇺
@@stephaniemccord6100 the word "extinct" is the wrong term to use. There are modern breeds of dogs that SHOULDNT be bred any more dingus. Their population isn't sustainable because they're inbred or have a ton of health problems. I know it's hard to actually "think" when your brain is a sock full of popcorn but give it a try some time
For the breed where there are fewer than 1,000 in the would, it would be good to cross them with another breed with certain similar traits. When dogs are in-bred too much it is bad for them, leads to bad health outcomes.
I've had 2 deerhounds now and couldn't recommend them enough. Super intelligent they train you to get what they want with a mischievous humour that melts you. They are not high maintenance at all and don't require a lot of exercise. Being short fast sprinters they do need to run but unlike lurchers they won't go far. They are very passive and great around people and children. I also have wolfhounds which are larger and heavier built, super affectionate and more exercise needy. Also quite rare these days. The world has enough cockapoodle farms, I hope your next dog helps keep a rare breed alive.
They're all mixed origins, so no "pre historic" breeds... Lots of dog breeds have had a unique purpose, but are no longer in demand, so they will be eighter lost, or cross bred. Even our Norwegian six toed LUNDEHUND. That's the Norwegian name. = Lunde (puffin). Hund (dog) Love from Oslo 😊❤
We also have to consider what job they are bred to do. A high-energy hunting or herding or sledding dog will quickly become bored and potentially destructive when they don't have their moose to chase, their reindeer to corral, or their carts to pull. Ask anyone who has lived with a husky. On the other hand. I knew an elderly disabled lady who got a Norwegian Elkhound, on paper a very poor fit for her situation, but she and the dog became inseparable, the dog adapting to the low-energy lifestyle. Her experience led me to choose elkhounds for myself. Great dogs, ideal for active families and adventurous individuals.
@@CandideSchmyles I've met a couple of deerhounds at dog shows, absolutely delightful dogs, friendly and cheerful, well behaved, but just more dog than I have room for. Funny thing is, when I say _Norwegian Elkhound,_ a lot of people envision a deerhound or an Irish Wolfhound, or another giant sight hound instead of a spitz-type pup a bit more than knee-high at the shoulder. My elkhound has always been welcome to sleep on the bed. a fine social bonding exercise and welcome in the cooler nights as a heating pad, but the past few evenings he's been lying on top of me.
I think the smooth collie would be a much more popular breed if it were better known. It's shorter coat would mean it needs less constant grooming than a long haired collie, and if it has a similar temperament it should actually be much more appealing to modern family life.
As a smooth owner, I strongly disagree about blowing coat. My roughs blew coat twice s year, my smooth constantly sheds! That said, Collies are an amazing breed, worthy of any family's love and attention. Just brush them a LOT.
LOL... yeah, my dogs, shorter haired, shed all year, just worse at some seasons than others, but they don't really require much brushing, just more sweeping and vacuuming. LOL !
Lost my blue merle Smooth Collie in January after 14 years. As a behavioural dog trainer who has worked with many many breeds I can only say what a fantastic breed with a fantastic temperament and of course he was a fantastic dog!
When I lived in Tallahassee FL (USA), there was a man who owned a handful of blue merle collies. I will never forget the first time I saw them: I stopped dead in my tracks, thinking “that is the most beautiful dog I have ever seen!” I always enjoyed seeing them out and about. My best to you on the loss of your dog.
It's a vicious circle. Since they are rare, a well-bred pup is very expensive compared to more popular breeds. So they become even more rare, etc., etc.
Nah, I'd say the recent 100% purity culture of kennel clubs is the biggest threat to rare breeds. Kennel clubs used to register a cross as purebred after 5 generations of back breeding, now it's a No. But rare breeds are too few healthy examples left to correct health issues from a ringfenced population. I was looking at otterhounds, I found the average bva hip score was 46, serverly dysplasia, so decided not to get one. The breed like many others is in desperate need of a controlled out crossing programme without which it won't survive, as responsible owners will do the research and decided against a breed with health issues same as I did. Unless the kennel clubs and show breeders drop the purity extremists, and goes back to pre 1970s attitudes to registering descendants of outcrosses, breeds will be lost.
@@bthyme unfortunately even the purity extremists in the Kennel clubs ruin inter variety breeding too. It's now banned from being registered unless you've gotten 'pre approval' for the inter variety breeding before the breeding takes places. And that's usually a NO too. Even with permission the resulting puppies are registered with *** (something that used to be reserved for the pre 1970s cross breeding, ie treating them like a true cross breed) and treated like a priva by other show breeders so trying to breed the next generation to quality dogs becomes next too impossible
The kennel clubs are causing way too many problems in a variety of breeds. Look at the issues with the brachycephalic breeds.... Extreme purity and breeding for particular characteristics like the Roman nose of the Bull Terrier, The extreme pushed in snout of Bulldogs and French Bulldogs or the slope in a German Shepherds hind end. It's sad.
None of these wonderful dogs should ever go extinct. Some are old breeds and it's a shame they are overshadowed by today's "flavor of the month" breeds favored by celebrities. My mother in law had a beautiful smooth collie for many years, what a wonderful dog.
We have a large red heeler that actually looks like a dingo. We thought he was a big hunter since he loves to chase things. He caught a sick cat yesterday, in our back yard. When we got to him he was just licking it all over like "are you okay?" and the poor sick cat just looked up like "Oh I thought you wanted to kill me", The cat lost his fear, we took her to her owner. So our big hunter just wants to play or help. so much for being vicious. ha! I was proud of him. My husband always believed he would kill something. I knew he wouldn't. +
Sussex Spaniel, I've been fortunate enough to have owned 5 of this incredible breed over the years and you really do have to live with them to truly appreciate this incredible breed
🙄 the smooth collie is not “a cousin” of the rough collie. It is two different coat types of the same breed. You can have smooth coats and rough coats born in the same litter. In the UK, they have separated them into different breeds, so breeders will exclusively breed for one coat or the other, but that’s an artificial distinction.
Sussex Spaniel: goodness. Our first family pet was a Sussex Spaniel, Biff. He was all you said, he lived to be 19+ years old. Gifted to us by my Grand Parents in 1955. He was amazing, loyal and played with all the kids in our neighborhood. Love loved him. Great family pet.
My sister's mother in law used to own 2 Otterhounds. Archie and Maude. Maude wandered off one time and, 2 weeks later was discovered by a farmer. She was entangled with barbed wire and survived drinking rain water. To cut a long story short, she had to have a leg amputated and recovered! She then won the bravest dog in Britain award and appeared at Crufts! Unfortunately I cannot remember the year. Early 2000's. A very brave dog. ❤
Best dog i ever had was a cockapoo. He had long straight fur and was very smart. He was 19 when his stomach twisted and had to be put to sleep. Miss him..
It's a shame breeds like pug, Frenchie and English bulldog and neo mastiffs aren't on this list Seeing people breed dogs for features that are counter productive to health makes me sad
Thanks for the interesting video. My favorites of these dogs are the Mudi and the smooth Collie. Unfortunately, life is too short to own all dogs we would like to own even though I always had (and still have) more than one dog. Most of them were herding dogs.
Still popular enough in England. Still breeders in America. Excellent family dog, I grew up with one and had another as a young adult. Cost about $3k each.
Another rare one that I had and enjoyed was a Bear Coat Shar Pei. Breeders (as in bad ones) believed they were so bad for the breed that they would cull the puppies before it had the chance to grow.
They all deserve to continue, so long as the owners give the breed what they need as far as exercise, stimulation or whatever. At the opposite of the spectrum is breeds that become too popular, sadly many end up abandoned and people breed for a quick "buck" . In Australia Smooth and Rough can be in the same litters,(not too often but they can) Collies are wonderful family dogs and if someone doesnt like grooming or the environment is tough for a long coated Rough Collie, then they are PERFECT. ❤️🇦🇺
It's OK because evolution dictates that something is going to evolve to take the extinct species place. Not sure when that ever happened, but that is their claim.
I love the Scottish Deer Hound and the Smooth Collie are beautiful, and would love to give them a home if I could supply them with all the exercise they wanted.
When I was about 16, I babysat for a family that had a Dandi Dinmont Terrier. I laughed at him as I'd NeVER seen a dog that looked like that, assuming it was a mutt! Maybe a cross between a Basset and a Poodle. Boy, was I wrong. He was an awesome dog, indeed!
The Scottish deerhound is in genetic bottleneck territory, too… with the limited gene pool that’s left, they’re in trouble and suffering a health related population collapse. It’s speculated that - without some selective crossbreeding for new genetic material - each generation will have shorter and shorter lifespans, and eventually die out. This breaks my heart. I’m a borzoi and silken windhound owner, and have always loved the “deer-ies”
In Canada, out west on the prairies, they cross Borzoi with Scottish Deer Hounds to run down the coyotes. It is said that the cross makes them a little more robust.
@@pseudopetrus Yep... I've seen some of these, and yeah, they're lovely. And HUGE!!!! They seem to all get some version of the "wiry" deerhound coat. Softer than a deerhound, but nowhere near the silky curls and waves of a borzoi.
@@ChelGriffith I have only seen pictures, but I love sight hounds, so the clownish appearance of this cross (the coat colours are wild as well as the coat texture) does not bother me at all. I would love someone to do more research on this cross. Do they live longer, and are they truly more rugged? As a child, I loved Irish wolf hounds, but their size hurts their speed. That is when I became interested in Borzois and Scottish Deer hounds. Right now I have a Malinois, and she is very fast! They are quite light built and fast.
@@ChelGriffith I am thinking black and tan Borzoi. I have seen pictures, but they are very rare or extinct. As you know black and tan is a dominant trait, so one allele gives the colour. That would be a cool cross with the Deer Hound, a black and tan Deer Hound mix.
As the owner of two rough collies, I am heartbroken to find the smoothie on the list at all, let alone the number one! Because I’m older, and the coats of my boys are difficult for me to groom, I have already decided my next collie boy will be a smooth coat… if I can find one. 💔
Lots in the USA. Part of the problem is spray neuter contracts from breeders, how can you promote a breed if only a handful own intact dogs? The snobbery is a bit much.
It's so sad and tragic especially when irresponsible people are breeding poodle crosses with invented names and also brachycephalic breeds which, beyond all my comprehension seems to appeal to potential dog owners. As a result, these beautiful, rare breeds are becoming even scarcer. Personally, I have a soft spot for Terriers. Especially the Dandie Dinmont. Unlike Dachshunds, their back is sloping so their hind legs are slightly longer than the fore legs, hence no back problems. I would dearly love to own one. A perfect companion for my pedigree Jack Russell Terrier ❤
Great dog , we’ve a 4 yr old boy . He’s a nice size , doesn’t shed and is quite the character . He loves lots of walks where there are scents , hence the truffle dog abilities
Lagotto are very much around in healthy numbers and whilst not up there with the Spaniels I’m seeing them out and about on a regular basis whilst walking mine .
The Dogo Argentino is a phenomenal specimen of a dog. The Cordoba fighting dog is extinct now. It was one of the 10 foundation breeds that made the Dogo . I don't think anyone cares though.
This is one step beyond breeds that never exited. It reminds me of when my house didn't have Central Air. It's hard to miss something that has had literally no impact on your life.
@@anastasiawortham8833 This is the thing, many of these breeds could exist in some form if they where bred temperamentally away from their original purpose. Dogs need to live closely with man and if the temperament no longer matches man's life either they go extinct or be bred for a temperament that does match man's changed needs. Unfortunately the problem is the 100% purity extremists who refuse to admit this and continue breeding temperaments that no longer fit with modern society. Like the ADBA continuing to breed pitbulls for DA with dog face offs instead of breeding it out and going to gentle more pet suitable temperament. All that has happened is that aggression has been redirected too many times and resulting in the law stepping in to ban the breed in dozens of countries. Had they back in the 50s as a breed club decided to breed out all aggression, temperamentally 70 years and 25 generations later would be completely different and no one would bat an eye seeing a pitbull. You can't 'live' history to breed 'living history'. Either adapt to modern needs of the average dog owner or go extinct.
In Sweden, I see these Lagotto Romangnolo everywhere. Only in our apartment complex there were 3 different families with that breed. I regularly see Lagottos in the park. My uncle have 2 Lagottos (although they're getting very old)... and when my puppy and I went to puppy training, our coach had one. And now, an old friend on social media I haven't seen in over 10 years just got one about a year ago. So I'm very surprised to see they are considered extinct.
Then those that appreciate a particular breed should do something about it. By the early 80's the Cane Corso was in the same situation. Those that cared worked hard to change the course and fate of the Cane Corso.
And now they are popular, which is the worst thing that can happen to a dog breed. They’re being overbred, poorly bread, they are in the hands of people that should never have them, and they’re being put down at a high rate because of behavior issues. I’m glad they’re not extinct but popular is never a good thing for a breed.
@nogames8982 ❤ Well said. 101 Dalmatians & Blue Peter television program to name just two had dreadful impact on dogs & breeding. (Blue Peters dogs encouraged childeren to want \ demand unsuitable breeds for town folk)❤ 🐕
Not just the smooth collie is at risk but the rough collie is facing declining numbers as well. As a rough collie owner I have never seen any other collies around before. It’s sad.
I have a Smooth Collie and his intelligence as near equal to my DDR German Shepherd. He’s beautiful to watch move but has a stubborn streak. These are intelligent dogs who like their independence but an excellent family dog
I have a lagotto! In my country they're not rare at all and they're popular with families who live in apartments because they don't shed and are friendly and love children.

Honestly rarer breeds should be promoted more often. It would be a shame for them to go extinct.
Exactly
True
They're outrageously expensive.
@@barbarat5729 that is unfortunate, but if bred responsibly they could gradually lower in price given that the breeds have rarer coat patterns.

Even our Norwegian six toed LUNDEHUND.
That's the Norwegian name. = Lunde (puffin). Hund (dog)
Love from Oslo 😊❤
Other factors like, they cost ten grand for a puppy.
We also have to consider what job they are bred to do. A high-energy hunting or herding or sledding dog will quickly become bored and potentially destructive when they don't have their moose to chase, their reindeer to corral, or their carts to pull. Ask anyone who has lived with a husky.
On the other hand. I knew an elderly disabled lady who got a Norwegian Elkhound, on paper a very poor fit for her situation, but she and the dog became inseparable, the dog adapting to the low-energy lifestyle.

Every single one of these breeds won their group at the dog show in November.
I want the lagotto romagnolo and the truffle orchard along with. Good combo.
I'd get a Sussex. Love that they are less active. Sound perfect! My current Whoodle is too much energy although she is dearly loved.
I would love the smooth collie.
What a shame if the dog world were to lose these breeds, they are all lovely dogs, and they should be promoted properly
Scottish Deerhound absolutely!
There too many in breeder who are breeding fashion accessory dogs ( hand bag dogs ) who have so many ailments !
When I was about 16, I babysat for a family that had a Dandi Dinmont Terrier. I laughed at him as I'd NeVER seen a dog that looked like that, assuming it was a mutt! Maybe a cross between a Basset and a Poodle.
Boy, was I wrong. He was an awesome dog, indeed!
the Smooth Collie which I had owned and Love, Follow by the Dannie of course.
The Scottish deerhound is in genetic bottleneck territory, too… with the limited gene pool that’s left, they’re in trouble and suffering a health related population collapse. It’s speculated that - without some selective crossbreeding for new genetic material - each generation will have shorter and shorter lifespans, and eventually die out.
This breaks my heart. I’m a borzoi and silken windhound owner, and have always loved the “deer-ies”
In Canada, out west on the prairies, they cross Borzoi with Scottish Deer Hounds to run down the coyotes. It is said that the cross makes them a little more robust.
@@pseudopetrus Yep... I've seen some of these, and yeah, they're lovely. And HUGE!!!! They seem to all get some version of the "wiry" deerhound coat. Softer than a deerhound, but nowhere near the silky curls and waves of a borzoi.
@@ChelGriffith I have only seen pictures, but I love sight hounds, so the clownish appearance of this cross (the coat colours are wild as well as the coat texture) does not bother me at all. I would love someone to do more research on this cross. Do they live longer, and are they truly more rugged? As a child, I loved Irish wolf hounds, but their size hurts their speed. That is when I became interested in Borzois and Scottish Deer hounds. Right now I have a Malinois, and she is very fast! They are quite light built and fast.
@@ChelGriffith I am thinking black and tan Borzoi. I have seen pictures, but they are very rare or extinct. As you know black and tan is a dominant trait, so one allele gives the colour. That would be a cool cross with the Deer Hound, a black and tan Deer Hound mix.
@@pseudopetrusTan points (like a Doberman) is recessive.
As the owner of two rough collies, I am heartbroken to find the smoothie on the list at all, let alone the number one! Because I’m older, and the coats of my boys are difficult for me to groom, I have already decided my next collie boy will be a smooth coat… if I can find one. 💔
Lots in the USA. Part of the problem is spray neuter contracts from breeders, how can you promote a breed if only a handful own intact dogs? The snobbery is a bit much.
The Sussex Spaniel is beautiful! I would love one!
All great dogs
I would love a dandy dinmont terrier!! Great size
Love my OTTERHOUND!
Pretty sure the collie my boss’s boss had is a smooth. Not sure how thrilled the cats are lol
I'd love a spinone Italiano. I met one and was very nice. Really friendly
First video that actually listed dogs I’ve never heard of ! I have multiple dog books and most of them don’t even mention these breeds
It's so sad and tragic especially when irresponsible people are breeding poodle crosses with invented names and also brachycephalic breeds which, beyond all my comprehension seems to appeal to potential dog owners. As a result, these beautiful, rare breeds are becoming even scarcer.
Personally, I have a soft spot for Terriers. Especially the Dandie Dinmont. Unlike Dachshunds, their back is sloping so their hind legs are slightly longer than the fore legs, hence no back problems. I would dearly love to own one. A perfect companion for my pedigree Jack Russell Terrier ❤
I’ll have all of them thank you very much but the Sky Terrier if I must choose probably because of Greyfriars Bobby
The Smooth Collie would be my choice.
Smooth Collie x Boxer would give all I need.
Can we make extinct the show line german shepherds, any extreme bracci cephalic dog, and cavaliers
Why Cavaliers?
I like the Lagotto Romagnolo.
Great dog , we’ve a 4 yr old boy . He’s a nice size , doesn’t shed and is quite the character . He loves lots of walks where there are scents , hence the truffle dog abilities
Spanish Water Dog
Smooth collie!!!
Sky terrier is my favourite ❤
I don’t get why the Lagotto Romagnolo. It seems just like some of the Oodle breeds out there.
Lagotto are very much around in healthy numbers and whilst not up there with the Spaniels I’m seeing them out and about on a regular basis whilst walking mine .
I love to see the Otterhound.
The Dogo Argentino is a phenomenal specimen of a dog. The Cordoba fighting dog is extinct now. It was one of the 10 foundation breeds that made the Dogo . I don't think anyone cares though.
It is such a shame if anyone of them goes extinct
This is one step beyond breeds that never exited. It reminds me of when my house didn't have Central Air. It's hard to miss something that has had literally no impact on your life.
You may call a skye terrier small but in my book any dog that weights up to 40 lbs. isn't small.
If we can't give them what they need we should not have them.
❤ Well Said.
Worry when working breeds get stuck indoors. Wee sections & na work. ❤ 🐕
@@anastasiawortham8833 This is the thing, many of these breeds could exist in some form if they where bred temperamentally away from their original purpose. Dogs need to live closely with man and if the temperament no longer matches man's life either they go extinct or be bred for a temperament that does match man's changed needs.
Unfortunately the problem is the 100% purity extremists who refuse to admit this and continue breeding temperaments that no longer fit with modern society.
Like the ADBA continuing to breed pitbulls for DA with dog face offs instead of breeding it out and going to gentle more pet suitable temperament. All that has happened is that aggression has been redirected too many times and resulting in the law stepping in to ban the breed in dozens of countries. Had they back in the 50s as a breed club decided to breed out all aggression, temperamentally 70 years and 25 generations later would be completely different and no one would bat an eye seeing a pitbull.
You can't 'live' history to breed 'living history'. Either adapt to modern needs of the average dog owner or go extinct.
In Sweden, I see these Lagotto Romangnolo everywhere. Only in our apartment complex there were 3 different families with that breed. I regularly see Lagottos in the park.
My uncle have 2 Lagottos (although they're getting very old)... and when my puppy and I went to puppy training, our coach had one. And now, an old friend on social media I haven't seen in over 10 years just got one about a year ago. So I'm very surprised to see they are considered extinct.
My father had a Lakeland Terrier, it is a rare breed also. It was OCD about tennis balls.
Then those that appreciate a particular breed should do something about it. By the early 80's the Cane Corso was in the same situation. Those that cared worked hard to change the course and fate of the Cane Corso.
And now they are popular, which is the worst thing that can happen to a dog breed. They’re being overbred, poorly bread, they are in the hands of people that should never have them, and they’re being put down at a high rate because of behavior issues. I’m glad they’re not extinct but popular is never a good thing for a breed.
@nogames8982 ❤ Well said.
101 Dalmatians & Blue Peter television program to name just two had dreadful impact on dogs & breeding.
(Blue Peters dogs encouraged childeren to want \ demand unsuitable breeds for town folk)❤ 🐕
@@nogames8982its a delicate balancing act for sure
I have only seen the Dindi. I would love a smooth collie.
Not just the smooth collie is at risk but the rough collie is facing declining numbers as well. As a rough collie owner I have never seen any other collies around before. It’s sad.
I have a Smooth Collie and his intelligence as near equal to my DDR German Shepherd. He’s beautiful to watch move but has a stubborn streak. These are intelligent dogs who like their independence but an excellent family dog
I have a lagotto! In my country they're not rare at all and they're popular with families who live in apartments because they don't shed and are friendly and love children.
