Amid the growing controversy over'Border Collie', which appeared in an entertainment program, the story of three Border Collies that quickly restored the Chilean forest that suffered from a large forest fire is being re-examined.

In January 2017, a terrible wildfire broke out in Chile to declare a state of emergency. More than 7,000 displaced people have burned forests over seven times the size of Seoul.
At this time, it was the three sisters of Border Collie'Dass','Olivia', and'Summer' who appeared as the solution to the forest restoration.

Francis C. Torres, a representative of the environmental NGO'Pewos' and assistant dog training for the disabled, came up with the idea of ​​taking advantage of Border Collie's boasting activity. Put a bunch of plant seeds in a perforated bag, and then let the dogs carrying the bag run freely through the ruined forest.
The dogs were running around 30 km on average per day, sowing about 10 kg of seeds. This was equivalent to doing tenths of each person, and thanks to this, the forest was quickly restored and it was known to bring hope to Chileans.
In this way, Border Collie is a species that is not only active, but also capable of various sports and has a reputation as'the smartest dog in the world.

However, KBS 2TV'Dogs are great', and the dogs from Koby and Dambi have been criticized by many viewers because they are being raised in an environment that does not consider the characteristics of the border collie species.
