About the Collie (Rough)
Sharing its heritage with the Smooth Collie, the Rough Collie emerged from the working sheepdogs of Scotland. Early Collies were smaller, but the arrival of the sable-coloured 'Old Cockie' in 1868 popularised the sable and white coat, though tricolour and blue merle remain. Queen Victoria's fondness for the breed further boosted its profile. With its glamorous coat, it has long been a beloved and striking companion.
