It is fairly easy to maintain the coat of a Border Collie, simply just requiring a weekly brush. The Collie has two varieties of coat; moderately long, or smooth. The topcoat is dense and medium-textured, while the undercoat is soft and dense. In the longer variety, the abundant coat forms a mane, breeching and brush.<\/p>\n

The Border Collie coat looks easy to maintain \u2014 provided it is groomed regularly. Some coats can be quite profuse, and will mat terribly if neglected, so a groom at least once a week is vital.<\/p>\n
