Adopting a Collie

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Collie - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

Adoption fees for rescued Collies are typically much lower than purchasing from a breeder, and you’ll be providing a loving home to a dog in need. Adoption fees for Collies usually range from $50 to $300, depending on the organization and the age and health of the dog.

On average, you can expect to pay anywhere from $800 to $2,500 for a Collie puppy from a reputable breeder.

The easiest way to adopt a Collie is through a breed-specific rescue organization that specializes in them. You can also look for Collies at local animal shelters. A great place to start is creating a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Collies and Collie mixes in your area.

Collie fun facts

Fun Facts:

The original dog cast to play Lassie refused to swim on film. Pal, the stunt dog, easily jumped in and swam as the Technicolor cameras shot test footage. The footage looked so good, the director reshot it in Technicolor, casting Pal as the beloved Lassie.

Frank Inn, one of the men who trained Lassie, also trained Benji!

Like so many breeds, Queen Victoria popularized the Collie after she visited Scotland in the 1860s and took a liking to the breed.
