They were bred for herding cattle.
as shepherd
Legend has it there was a dog in Northumberland, England, who was the first border collie, called Old Hemp.

No two dogs simply make a collie. They are the result of high drive herding dogs from multiple countries, which were bred many hundreds of years ago. They're an ancient breed that can only continue by being bred collie-to-collie.
she is probably a mix with rough collie and sheltie
Collies is the plural of Collie which is a type of dog. A Collie is a sheepdog with long hair and has traditionally bred in Scotland. These are extremely intelligent dogs.
I believe it is a smooth coated collie. Very cute dog. It looks just like my dog (Labrador/collie mix) but with collie coloring and long fur. It's definitely not a pure bred collie, it's got lab in it's face.
I had a Wicklow Collie in Ireland. She was about one third smaller than a normal sized Border Collie. Her parents were also smaller. She was very smart with strong work ethic. I was unable to find that breed anywhere else outside of Ireland.
I would say that a collie is better, since a black mouth cur was bred as a multi-purpose dog rather than a herding dog.
Ancient people first domesticated dogs in really early years of life. Ancient people were also first to breed them to make other breeds such as a border collie and a lab sorry this is kinda screwed up but the answers at the top

They were first bred for hunting otters
