Border Collies are one of dog’s most intelligent breeds. This high intelligence makes them easy to train and allows them to make strong companions for people. They learn new things quickly and enjoy taking part in competitions such as agility and obedience. At home, Border Collies provide a powerful family defense system because they’re very protective, particularly around children in their families. As friendly dogs who want to be with their people, Border Collies can’t handle long periods alone in a yard and need daily interaction with their owners. When socialized correctly from an early age, Border Collies get along well with other pets including cats when raised with them.
