We are considering the name Roo but haven’t completely decided yet! This is my first smooth collie, I’ve always had rough. We used a slicker brush and a comb. Do any of you know what brush you would use on the smooth coat? Thank you!
Does anyone have recommendations on collars that won't damage collie hair? I feel like I probably just need to ditch the collar altogether and get her chipped earlier than her spay date. But I'm so used to all my dogs having collars! Or does anyone have other recommendations for identification if they were to get away?
Hey guys, was planning on taking my lil pup out to the Vet to get this checked out but I wanted to know if anyone's seen this. Got a pup from a shelter and apparently she was taken from bad conditions in a puppy mill. Picked her up two weeks ago and she quickly became part of the family and we all love her, and she celebrated turning four months old recently. We've been going to get her all checked our, vaxxed and taken care of, but we noticed she had an overbite as she sleeps upside down [pick related]
It's a pretty bad one, her front teeth never enter her mouth properly or get covered by her jaw. How rare/bad is this for her in the long run health? She has a harder time picking up her toys than a lot of dogs but shes also a clumsy puppy. Its not effected her eating from what we have seen. What should I expect from a vet visit from those who have seen this before? Any help is appreciated. I just want to make sure I know what to expect and guarantee I got the money squirreled away if it needs to be fixed.
My collie loves her cat brother
My girl is only three months old. We had a 7 1/2 hour drive home after I left the breeder. She was completely ok and I thought maybe she was lucky enough to not be affected. Yesterday I loaded her into the car while I went to get coffee. It was a 20 min drive round trip. She started drooling almost immediately and then vomited. I know collies are more prone to car sickness while they’re young but does anyone have advice? I hate seeing uncomfortable. Pic is of her getting on a chair that she knows she’s not allowed on. That look..
Who has a low endurance collie? This girl can run and run for short periods, but she gets wiped out and needs to rest after short periods of exercise.
I've wanted a rough collie my whole life, since befriending a neighbor's dog as a kid. I've followed local collie rescues in my area for years now. I'm grieving the loss of a pet, and decided to submit an adoption application just for the hell of it. They can keep it on hand.
Of course it asked a bunch of questions, but the one that tripped me up was "Why do you want a Collie?"
I have a little beagle mix, and I love all her quirks, but she's my first dog. It was at that point I realized that I never fully considered why I want a collie specifically. As a kid, I just thought they were beautiful.
He’s SO not into it haha
Lassie and her Sheltie puppy, Happy, resting. These two love the chase.
