Summary

About Collie
The Collie is an intelligent, medium‑large herding dog with a long double coat needing regular grooming. Gentle, loyal, and sensitive, it bonds closely with family and prefers kind training. Adaptable to town or country, it needs daily mental stimulation and exercise to stay content.
About Norwegian Lundehund
The Norwegian Lundehund is a rare, small spitz-type dog with at least six toes per foot, great flexibility, and a weather-resistant double coat. Once used to hunt puffins on Norwegian cliffs, it is now an active, alert companion needing gentle training and regular mental and physical exercise.
