Collies seem to be in a league of their own when it comes to training though, some of the things they can be taught to do are incredible and they also seem to get real enjoyment /satisfaction out of it, so I'd say there's just a good chance that the breed in general tends to have a better understanding of what's going on (e.g. That people are trying to help them when they're injured) so they won't be as scared / confused and snap?
