The Bearded Collie is a hardy active dog, with an aura of strength and agility characteristic of a real working dog. He is stable and self-confident, showing no signs of shyness or aggression. He has a high level of intelligence and resourcefulness and owners must keep him busy or he will invent things to keep himself occupied. A good family dog, his natural instincts of guarding the flock will translate to guarding his family.
