EVERYTHING! GSDs are larger often 65-100 lbs. and can be long or short coated BCs are always long haired a 30-55 lbs. BCs are recognized as #1 most intelligent dog and GSDs are #4. GSDs also have a stronger bite force at 238 psi and ranks in the top ten highest jaw strength for domestic dogs. I don't believe they have tested the BC, if they have i haven't found the results. BCs are most commonly black & white but can be red, blue and i have read black and tan. GSDs are usually black mixed with red, tan, silver, or white. They can also be black, white, sable, cream, or yellow. GSDs don't need as much exercise and can be kept as apartment dogs if given fair exercise BCs are not recommended for apartments because of there very high exercise needs.

∙ 13y agoThe Border Collie has a more tall, lean and muscular structure- whilst the Collie has a much longer snout, head shape, and bone structure. I show Border Collies, and after a while- they look completely different. But they already do so I don't know what the problem is about noticing the difference.

Two totally different breeds of dog. The welsh sheepdog has a wider muzzle and a broader chest then a border collie.

∙ 12y agoNow that's a hard one. The Border collie (normally) has two layers of dark colored fur. Only a little white show on the belly and the nose. The English shepherd has one thick layer of a mixed color. They can be black, brown, grey, or white. The Border collie is a good watchdog and is very well behaved. It is great for a family pet. The English Shepherd, however, is breed for speed and control. They are good watchdogs but can be a little stubborn at times. You can have them as a family pet but make sure he gets lots of room to run and play. Otherwise, he'll get restless and start chewing and barking at lots of things!
