Mixed breed from United Kingdom
The Sprollie is a large mixed breed dog originating in the United Kingdom. It is a cross between a Border Collie and an English Springer Spaniel, though its recognition status varies by registry. Known for being intelligent, energetic, loyal, athletic, eager to please, and work-focused, the Sprollie typically stands 46–56 cm tall and weighs 16–32 kg. Its estimated lifespan is 12–15 years. Because it is a mixed breed, individual dogs may vary widely in appearance and temperament.
The Sprollie is a modern designer crossbreed developed in the United Kingdom. It was created by crossing English Springer Spaniels with Border Collies. The goal was to combine the intense intelligence and work ethic of the Border Collie with the friendly, eager-to-please nature of the English Springer Spaniel. The result is a versatile companion and sporting dog. However, as a mixed breed, its history is not as well-documented as that of purebred dogs, and its recognition status varies by registry.
