Our little girl, Frankie, is a Scottish Collie, but the breeder we adopted her from said the only difference between this breed and Border Collies is they were a little less spastic. She looks just like a Border Collie, and is too smart for her own good. One of the most loving dogs I've ever had.

how to get into trouble. I had a husky years ago. He was way too smart. That little rascal was an escape artist.

several decades ago.

Their intelligence is amazing. And their ability to pick up vocabulary from context is downright spooky.
