Irish Collie
No full profile for this one: none of the major kennel bodies (FCI, AKC, UKC) publish a breed standard for it, so there are no first-hand figures or health notes to draw on. The name and portrait are here.
At a glance
This page is general information compiled from published sources. It is not veterinary, legal or purchase advice. Dogs vary within a breed — talk to a vet or a reputable breeder about the dog in front of you.
No breed standard, so every dog is different
A breed standard is what sets out the size, build and character expected of a breed. There is none for this one, so dogs called by this name can vary a lot in size, health and temperament, and there are no typical figures we can responsibly give.
Judge the individual dog
Meet the dog itself and, where you can, its parents. Ask for its vet records and vaccination history. Before you commit, have a vet examine this particular dog.
Still have questions?
Ask owners on the PawMunity forum — every breed has its own board.
