    Only about six of your reasons are close to reality. All the others only deal with human heart strings. They think the world revolves around them is true. They are a working dog to the core. They want to work or play hard, and please their master. That's all period. So you need open space, and lots of it, a flock of sheep, a heard of cattle, or lots of human interaction. you know what I mean, not an apartment, or house with little or no back yard. If they don't have the area to run they will be unhappy, become overweight, and may rebel in a dog way. You may loose control and several pairs of shoes or worse. They are a wonderful pet to have just don't short change the future adult collie because he or she is so cute as a puppy. Move on to another breed that will be more at home with your living situation, and always look into a rescue dog, as there are many out there just as cute, loveable, and loyal.
