2. Border Collie - Advances in DNA testing have made it easier to control the relatively few minor genetic conditions known to affect border collies. As a high-energy dog with a life expectancy of up to 14 years, the Border collie is a fantastic choice for active individuals and young families-- just be ready to provide her with lots of outdoor playtime and exercise.
