Description
Dog Breed: Collie (long coat). Kaylee is a 6-year-old Rough Collie with a big presence, a bigger coat, and an even bigger heart. From the moment you meet her, she’s friendly, polite, and happy to make a good impression—often sealed with one of her signature Collie chin kisses. She enjoys interacting with people, has lovely manners (no jumping!), and knows her “sit” cue very well. On leash, Kaylee is a pleasure. She walks nicely without pulling and is calm and attentive. At home, she’s equally well-behaved—she is not destructive (no chewing, digging, or mischief). One thing to know about Kaylee: she is vocal and likes to keep her humans informed of interesting sounds or sights. She takes her neighborhood watch duties seriously! Other Dogs Kaylee can live with other dogs, though slow introductions are important. She can be a bit pushy or dominant in her play style and was initially standoffish with her current canine companion. With time and proper introductions, they are now great friends—playing together, sharing beds and toys, and happily coexisting. Considering that successful match is between two adult females, that’s no small achievement! Cats & Other Animals Cats are unfortunately a no for Kaylee. She is very reactive to them, and even dog-savvy cats are uncomfortable around her. We believe she would chase, and the safest choice is a cat-free home. We don’t have experience with young children or small dogs, so we can’t offer guidance there. Kaylee is a big solidly built Collie with a thick, beautiful coat. The Ideal Home Kaylee would thrive with someone who appreciates: A well-mannered, affectionate adult dog A vocal Collie personality A cat-free household Kaylee is a wonderful blend of sweet, sensible, and spirited. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with classic Collie charm and don’t mind a little commentary on daily life, Kaylee just might be your girl.

Overview:
The Collie, a majestic and intelligent breed, originates from Scotland where they were primarily used for herding sheep. Known for their striking beauty, Collies typically possess a long, flowing double coat that comes in a variety of colors including sable and white, tricolor, and blue merle. They have a graceful, athletic build, with a distinctive long muzzle and expressive eyes. In terms of temperament, Collies are renowned for being incredibly loyal, gentle, and highly trainable, making them excellent companions. Their affectionate nature makes them particularly well-suited for families with children, though their need for moderate exercise means they thrive in homes with yards, rather than cramped apartment living. While generally a healthy breed, potential owners should be aware of a predisposition to certain conditions like Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and drug sensitivities. With proper care and training, a Collie will enrich any household with their devoted companionship and bright personality.
