The Beaumont Collie is a working breed perfected on the Blue Beaumont Ranch, known for producing bison/cattle crosses and the dogs to herd them. The three major breeds used to develop this breed were the border collie, kelpie, and the blue lacy, making them a versatile hybrid cross.
The Beaumont Collie is an adaptable breed suited to a variety of tasks. Temperament varies throughout the breed, but all collies should be handler-driven, eager, intelligent, loyal, alert, and willing to work - these dogs thrive in an enriching work environment where they are allowed an outlet to express themselves. While suitable as a family pet, collies are high energy and need to be a 'dog with a job'. The breed is especially suited to sports and service work due to their capacity to learn and motivation by praise. Individually, personalities may range from calm and collected to vivacious and active, which allows for their wide spectrum of work.
