The Collie: Nobility and Intelligence for Quebec Families
Made famous by Lassie, the Collie is a dog of remarkable beauty and intelligence. With 11 listings on QuebecAnnonce, this elegant breed is less common but highly valued by dog enthusiasts in Quebec. Its graceful appearance and expressive gaze draw admiration in parks across Montreal, Quebec City and Gatineau.
The Collie comes in two varieties: Rough Collie (long-haired) and Smooth Collie. Weighing 45 to 65 pounds, it is a medium-to-large athletic elegant dog.
A Natural Guardian Devoted to Family
The Collie is one of the best family dogs. Gentle and patient with children, protective without aggression, it has a natural herding instinct often applied to "its" family. Its intelligence makes it one of the easiest breeds to train using positive reinforcement methods.
The Collie in Quebec’s Climate
The Collie is perfectly suited to Quebec winters. Its dense double coat provides excellent insulation, and it loves snow. Health concerns include Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), MDR1 drug sensitivity and hip dysplasia. Choose CKC-registered breeders who test for CEA and MDR1. Browse our dog listings in Quebec.
