Rough Collies are my favorite breed. I've owned Rough Collies for more than 30 years. A Rough Collie trained as a service dog would be fantastic now. A dream... ❤

Woah! I'm training my tri boy right now and love seeing a mature dog doing the job. They are so similar in behavior! Thanks for the insight in how we keep going! Beautiful video
Supper she is the spitting image of my Collie, my best friend, I could not think of any other dog to have I wish more family's would consider them they are so easy going and such a part of family life, life without meine would have less meaning. Keep up the good work.
I had two strokes when I was a kid. A therapist told me I should look into a service dog. I grew up with a Yorkshire terrier. I always loved collies even golden retrievers, and all dogs. In this video it sounds like it will help me like going up steep curbs, brace, mobility. I do not use a wheelchair unless I’m at like Disney World. My stroke gave me poor balance and vision loss. I’m trying to find out if I get a service dog will I have a harness like that lady was using and maybe a visual aid harness just to move out of tight areas, get out of objects from my right vision. Last year I was at Disney World. The park was really crowded and I could hear everybody having a good time.My vision made me nervous. I staggered I felt like I was going to fall. But I caught myself. If I have a service dog with both handles. Would this not have happen?
A mobility dog can definitely help you with balancing and bracing before you fall! My service dog in training is being trained for mobility when I have drops in blood pressure, which causes difficult leg and arm fatigue. Look into Yupcollars and Bold Lead Designs. They have a wide variety of harnesses where you can have a guide handle and mobility handle attached to one harness to fit both your needs!
Dear Snoopy 82, Part of the application process to apply for a mobility collie from my program involves your coming to Oregon and actually walking with a fully trained demonstration dog. This give you an opportunity to feel what this type of mobility assistance feels like.😊
Absolutely they can, yes! The dogs are trained to maintain their working positions. The harness provides the "connection" to the dog but is not a source of control. Control is done verbally and with light collar cues.
Hello CV Ranch, No this was a dog named Laddie. This video was created 10 years ago. You can did a Playlist of Crede in my PLAYLIST tab. Each dog has a playlist created when they are in training. Just click on SEE ALL to open the entire playlist library. I hope you enjoy it!

Hello Snoopy82, Yes, a Mobility Dog would indeed help you move through a place like Disney World with confidence and ease. I offer a "Walkabout"(walk with a trained dog) experience if you can come to Corvallis, OR. That way you can "feel" your way into this option for mobility assistance. Please call me if you have questions. I invite you to visit my youtube channel called Leslie Rappaport to see a video PLAYLIST called Living with Balance and Mobility Challenges. Also one called The Walkabout Program. Enjoy!

Don't worry. The dogs who do this work love to be helpful, have big generous hearts and feel fulfilled by their careers. Their human partners show them love, respect and appreciation at all times😊❤
There is nothing on earth more wonderful than a collie....very special dogs...

You're welcome Emily :-)

I have an Australian Shepherd and he is amazing. A Collie may be my next!
I am so glad to see you again. I lost 60 pounds and put it back on. Now trying hard to get back on. I still pray/hope for a partner.
What a beautiful, happy dog.
Beautiful bond.
I ❤ Collies 🐶❤🐾

Lovely and so needful, great work.

@@kvcolliegal I have mobility problems and eye sight issue. I had two strokes as a kid. It affected my right peripheral.
Can a kid control one if they need that moblity??
Absolutely they can, yes! The dogs are trained to maintain their working positions. The harness provides the "connection" to the dog but is not a source of control. Control is done verbally and with light collar cues.
I shared this video.
can you post a video with a smooth collie? idk if its the fur, but smooths seem smaller?
No. Smooths are not smaller. Take a look at the Playlist called Shelly & Jordan. Jordan is 25" and 85#'s. Enjoy!
You'll see a Playlist on my RUclips channel for Mr.Belvedere who is a big smooth boy!
Amazing work! Is this Crede from the Parsons?
