Queen Victoria, a purebred dog enthusiast, became enamored of the collie and added her first to her kennel in 1860. Her involvement with the breed caught the interest of other dog fanciers and of upper society people who wanted the same breed as the Queen's favorite. In 1886, an official breed standard was drawn up. Collies came to America both as working sheep dogs and elite pets. Learn more at https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/dog-breeds/collie
