The Border Collie is a very gentle, absolutely non-biting breed. It is also a dog that is very friendly with family and friends, but clearly reserved with strangers, making it a very good watchdog. He is happy and content to learn. Among his genetic breeding requirements, temperament is the most important factor to evaluate. These natural temperaments come from the Border Collie’s nature – vigorous, gentle, hard-working, sharp, alert, not only non-neurotic, but also non-aggressive. His intelligence and willingness to learn make him the number one dog in the world for intelligence and obedience. And these excellent traits make the Border Collie often the biggest winner in obedience competitions.
