Yes they can. Border Collies are one dog that shouldn't be cut short, but their hair thinned down to let the air at their skin. Border Collies are noted as being a beautiful breed because of their fur and intelligent look to their eyes (they are smart, but then you know that already.) You can buy thinning scissors from a good pet store. I have one. They look like scissors, but have serrated edged teeth along the inner edge and the tip of the two blades are rounded instead of pointed like regular scissors. Instead of having your Border Collie clipped short, use the thinning sheers and be sure to groom your pet with a good brush (one recommended by a groomer.)

There is no such thing as a hypo-allergenic dog, and anyone who tells you otherwise knows NOTHING about the causes of dog allergies.Answer:No. Border collies tend to shed heavily, and would be particularly bad for allergy sufferers to be around.
