This copper
Bearded Collie Dog weathervane features a glass eye and brass and
copper patterns to mimic the spots on this particular Beagle. Customers can

their favorite dog. Glass eye color can be selected to accommodate a
variety of dog eye colors.
A
Collie refers to various breeds of herding
dog originating primarily in Scotland. The exact origin of the name is
uncertain, although it probably originates in Early Scots col(l)
(coal), meaning black. Another explanation sometimes put forward is that
collie was a regional word for "something useful".
The fictional Lassie, star of movies, books, and
television shows, was a Rough Collie, which helped to popularize Collies in the
United States and the United Kingdom, as well as in many other countries. Lad of
Sunnybank also deserves credit for making the collie popular and was a real dog
written about by Albert Payson Terhune. The Collie Club of America is one of the
oldest breed-specific clubs in existence in the United States (founded in 1886).
However, there are three different dog breeds with "Collie" in their name:
- Collie (including both Rough Collie and
Smooth Collie varieties)
- Border Collie
- Bearded Collie
