Border Collie – Recommended Dog Pod SizeUpdated 2 days ago

Size Category: Medium
Weight Range: 14–20 kg
Build/Body Type: Athletic, long-legged, lean, and highly agile. Longer body length and upright posture; prefers room to stretch out.

📏 Recommended Pod Size

Most Border Collies will be most comfortable in the XL Pet Pod.

Although highly flexible and able to curl up, Border Collies have a longer frame, high energy level, and upright resting posture, making the XL a better long-term fit.
The added room allows them to comfortably shift positions, stretch out, and settle more deeply during car rides or travel days.

🐶 Multi-Dog Capacity

Two Border Collies should not share a single Pod.
Their athletic medium-sized build requires their own space to remain comfortable and secure.

Each XL Pod includes two built-in safety leashes, allowing you to secure your dog properly during travel.

👀 Breed-Specific Tips

Border Collies are alert, intelligent, and active working dogs.
The additional space in the XL helps them relax more easily, especially on busy, bumpy, or longer drives where they benefit from extra stability and room to reposition.

A cushioned blanket or mat may help them settle faster, as Border Collies tend to stay mentally engaged even during travel.

💡 Alternative Options

If your Border Collie is on the smaller end of the breed and curls up tightly, the Original Pod may work for short trips or occasional car use — but for regular travel, the XL Pod is strongly recommended.
