Beardie

Pro Tip 1/3

Dog Breed

Remember, 'beardie' refers to a specific kind of herding dog with a shaggy coat, not just any dog.

At the park, we saw a beardie rounding up the geese like a pro.

Pro Tip 2/3

Not Always Bearded

'Beardie' might suggest all these dogs have beards, but it's about their overall long, furry appearance.

Despite the name, not every beardie's facial hair looks like a traditional beard.

Pro Tip 3/3

Common Misconception

Some might wrongly think 'beardie' means any dog with a beard-like feature, but it's breed-specific.

I initially thought any long-haired dog was a beardie, but I was mistaken.
