About Border Collies
The Border Collie takes its name from the border regions of England, Scotland and Wales, where it worked sheep in the hills. The Royal Kennel Club calls it a "naturally active and intelligent herding specialist and all-round worker", says it is still seen working sheep and cattle, and says it "needs to be engaged to lead a fulfilled life".

Are there Border Collie puppies for sale in England?
No. Rescues rehome Border Collies for an adoption fee rather than selling them, so be wary of any advert that asks for a deposit before you have met the dog. In England today, Border Collies are listed by The Freedom Of Spirit Trust For Border Collies (at Bingley), Animal Care Lancaster Morecambe & District (at Lancaster) and Ashbourne Animal Welfare (at Ashbourne), and 16 other rescues. Animal Care Lancaster Morecambe & District asks a minimum of £150 for a dog and Ashbourne Animal Welfare £275 for an adult dog. For The Freedom Of Spirit Trust For Border Collies, see the rescue's own page for its fee.
Can I get a free Border Collie to a good home in England, or one under £500?
Usually not from a rescue: each asks an adoption fee towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations, and a "free to a good home" advert is a private one with no rescue checks behind it. Of the rescues listing Border Collies in England today, the published fees run from £150 at Animal Care Lancaster Morecambe & District to £450 at Chesterfield Animal Rescue. Every one of those is under £500. For the other 9, see the rescue's own page.
