Bearded Collie is a medium sized, long-haired herding dog - it's a hardy and lively dog with few congenital health problems - the breed is one of the oldest Scottish herding breeds who have worked hard in the Scottish highlands many centuries .
HISTORY
The story goes that trade between Poland and Scotland started in the 1500s . There is a story about a man named Karzimicz Grabski who traveled with corn and would trade for some 20 specially selected sheep. He brought with him six own shepherd dogs that would separate the sheep from a herd of 60 animals , and get them safe back to the ship. The owner of the sheep was so impressed by the dogs' incredible skill and traded goods to a pair of dogs. It therefore considers it certain that some long-haired Hungarian breeds such as : Kommondor and Nizinny have helped to shape the breed's appearance .
In the late nineteenth century began the need for herding dogs to slow down, and the dogs became more and more rare. In the absence of other breeding material was Old English Sheepdog and Border Collie used. The dogs were working and were owned by farmers who only was interested in working properties , it was then of course natural to not bother to refine the breed. The breed standard was written in 1912 by the new Bearded Collie Club of Edinburg, but the war made short work of the club, so in 1955 it formed a new club in England.
In 1944, Mrs. G.O. Willison accidentally owner of a brown Bearded Collie bitch named Jeannie . ( She had ordered a Shetland Sheepdog puppy! ) Mrs. Willison was a big supporter of the breed that she started her search for other Beard Report . All Bearded Collies today have her famous " Bothkennar " dogs behind his pedigree.
Like most herding dogs are beardis an active, happy and easily learned dog. It learns quickly in both the positive and the negative. They require lots of love and closeness to his people, but at the same time discipline throughout life. A Bearded Collie bored or feel neglected can be very resourceful when it comes to getting attention!
Grooming and training to make grooming is also part of the responsibilities in owning a Bearded Collie . This is what most people feel is the biggest deterrent to buying a Bearded Collie puppy. But the truth is that there are not nearly as much work as you think. And with the right training right from puppyhood and proper equipment so this is something that is far more affordable than one's worst suspicions.
