The Border Collie is a working and herding dog breed developed in the Anglo-Scottish border region
I have always liked collies!  They are a pretty dog!  Do you have one?
I do. They are a very intelligent and obedient breed of dog.
Are they a good dog if you have kids as well?
They are actually very good with kids!
That's good since I have little ones!  Isn't that the breed of dog on the show "Lassie"?
Indeed. Lassie was a fictional character created by Eric Knight that was a femal Rough Collie dog. 
That's what I thought!  That was a great show!
She was a Rough Collie, though, which has to do with the length of her coat.
Interesting!  I never knew that!  Is one better than the other?
