Meet Marley
Border Collie, 12 years old
My favourite thing about Marley is...
He talks and high fives you!
The biggest challenge with Marley is...
He will chew mail up.
The most surprising thing about owning a Border Collie is...
The intelligence of this breed.
What I wish I’d known about Border Collies is...
Hip problems.
Did you know?
There are many theories on how Collies got their names but as ‘collie’ is Gaelic for ‘useful’ perhaps it’s as simple as Scottish farmers recognising one of the key traits of their dogs.
