The Collie's parent club, The Collie Club of America, was organized in 1886, two years after the establishment of the American Kennel Club and was the second parent club to join the AKC. The Collie was first shown in the United States in May of 1877, at the second show of the Westminster Kennel Club in New York. The collie comes in two varieties, the longhaired Rough and the shorthaired Smooth.
