Frequently Asked Questions
About Collie Puppies

What are Collies known for?
Collies are every bit the calm, caring, affectionate family dogs that they’re portrayed to be. They need lots of love and are happy to return the favor. Full-grown, they typically weigh 50-75 pounds and stand 22-26 inches tall.
Will a Collie get along with my other pets?
Collies are generally excellent with children of all ages. Collies are great with children, and with socialization, they can get along with other pets too. These dogs may be suspicious of strangers or nip at your heels (especially as puppies), but they tend to grow out of those behaviors with age. They're very vocal and bark quite a lot.
How much exercise does a Collie need?
Collies need at least a good daily walk, a chance to run around, or active playtime each day. They’re sensitive to heat though, so if you live in a warmer climate, wait until the sun sets to let your Collie outdoors, and give them plenty of water when temperatures rise. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
How much grooming does a Collie need?
The Collie can have a rough, straight, long coat or a smooth, hard, flat coat. Both types have a soft undercoat and short, smooth hair on their head and legs. Collies may be tricolor, blue merle, white, or sable and white. Grooming-wise, this breed is moderate.
Where do Collies do best — city or country?
Collies are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. Collies love being around people, so they should live indoors with the family. They are fairly easy to train.

Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
