Lassie
Lassie is a fictionalized sable & white rough girl collie character who has been beloved for more than half a century and depicted in books, movies,
The first Lassie was played by a collie male named “Pal”. There have been 9 generations of Pal’s decendants to play Lassie since, all of which have been male. It is said that Lassie was played by a male in the television series so that the children co-staring with him could grow up and Lassie would still look like a good sized dog in comparison (female collies are smaller than the male).
