    Bearded Collie Puppy

    The Bearded Collie is a medium sized dog that is often referred to as a working dog. It has a long and lean body. When it comes to the head, it is broad, large and relatively flat. The muzzle is short but strong and full. Its nose is square in shape and relatively large. The teeth make a scissor bite. The eyes of the Bearded Collie puppies are normally wide set and often take the color of the coat. The tail is carried low except when the dog is excited.

    The San Diego Bearded Collie puppy is best known for its shaggy double coat. The coat is normally waterproof and hangs throughout the body. The name Breaded comes from the fact that the coat hangs under the chin. The puppies that are bearded are usually born in such colors as blue, black, fawn or brown. They may have the white marking or not. As the puppies mature, their color may fade to cream or gray. Before getting to the adult color, the colors change many times.
