Curry (ScotlandSheepdog is known as Collie in foreign countries) accurate genetics Lost and hidden, it has been controversial for centuries. MARGARET OSBORNE mentions in her book that today's popular Collies appeared in 1957, but no one knows for sure what breeds the Collies were mixed with. At first, a collie for work was selected to see how its instincts and leadership abilities were, and later people might teach the collie some actions and methods that are useful for shepherds.

As a result, the Scottish Highland dog looked more or less at first The ugly, slow Collie was evolved in the hilly regions of Scotland and northern England. At that time the dogs were called COL, COLLEY, COALY, and COLLIE, which were spelled differently in different eras. The origin of these names is mysterious and controversial. The most popular at the time was COL, which in the Anglo-Saxon language means black long-haired. It was an uncertain name until blackfaced sheep were bred and popularized in Scotland.
Unfortunately, Collies were created by people randomly crossing different bloodlines. During this period, Irish Setters were used to try to breed enough black genes, Gordon Setters were used to try to breed enough tan genes, and Russian Wolfhounds were used to try to breed Increase head proportions. The end result was a successful cross-breeding with the Irish Setter, but the red setter is disqualified in the early breeding standards, which was quickly dropped by breeders who knew the color's Genes are unavoidable. The genes of the Russian wolfhound also emerged, but unfortunately turned into a shrunken skull and a Roman nose.
It is a fluke that these exotic bloodlines in Collie breeding have slowly been diluted over the centuries. However, due to the problem of reproductive skills, their bad genes are still maintained.
The Collie's popularity began with Queen Victoria's love for the dog. This is roughly Belomon in 1860, she brought a collie back to Windsor. The so-called COLLIE started in the Queen's kennel. The Collie suddenly became popular among the aristocratic dog breeds. Owning a Collie became fashionable at the time, and it was so important to the future of Collie breeding that avid breeders came together to discuss improvements to the Collie's structure. The history of the Collie Show is a bit confusing and I can't give a brief introduction here.
