Rough Collies are not typically considered good guard dogs due to their friendly and gentle nature. They are more known for their intelligence, loyalty, and ability to herd livestock.
Yes, they are awesome and good at everything
Border Collies are probably the best. (They are the smartest dog)
Yes, Rough Collies can be good at Flyball. Their intelligence, agility, and speed make them suitable for the sport, which involves racing against other dogs to complete a series of jumps and retrieve a tennis ball. Additionally, their strong work ethic and eagerness to please can enhance their performance in competitive environments. However, individual temperament and training can significantly influence their success in Flyball.
Any as long as they're trained right.... But mainly Collies and labs;)
Yes. The Shetland Sheepdog is one of the leading breeds in agility competitions. As these dogs are originally bred to herd sheep, they have high energy levels and are talented athletes.
Herding breeds are usually the best agility dogs. Example Border collies and Blue Heelers. But also Jack Russels and other small high energy dogs can make great agility dogs too.
Yes, Brittany Spaniels are generally well-suited for dog agility competitions. Their energetic and athletic nature, coupled with a strong desire to please their handlers, makes them quick learners and highly trainable. Additionally, their agility and keen instincts allow them to navigate obstacles effectively, making them competitive in this sport. With proper training and socialization, they can excel in agility events.
yes border collies are friendly. and they do live many years. they are obedient, good to train
Herding breeds such as Australian Shepherds, Border Collies, Corgis, Australian Kelpies, Queensland Heelers, Australian Cattle Dogs, Shetland Sheepdogs, and others have a *tendency* to have the traits that make good agility dogs: Eagerness to work, agility, speed, trainability. However, not all dogs of these breeds necessarily have these traits, and there are many other breeds where some or many of the individual dogs might have these traits. For example, many Papillons are amazing at agility, and so are some Poodles (of all sizes). Other working breeds might have some or all of those traits, such as Dobermans, Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Chesapeake bay retrievers, Springer Spaniels, and many others. Don't just get a dog for agility though, you need to be able to love it, even if it turns out hating agility. I have a dog agility course myself and a doberman she is still young so you must be very patient with your dog while doing the course.
Technically, all dogs can be good agility dogs, it just requires training. Since dalmations are big and not square-body shaped, they should be pretty good, even though you dont usually see them on TV running courses.
