Either keep cooked rice hot (above 60 Â°C) or cool the rice as quickly as possible and store in a refrigerator below 5 Â°C. Rice cools quicker if removed from the hot container and divided into smaller, clean shallow containers less than 10 cm deep. Keep the containers separate, not stacked.
Caring For The Senior Collie. On average, Collies typically live 10 to 13 years, but many go well beyond the age of 13 and I have heard of a few Collies reaching 15 and beyond. Generally it is thought that the smaller the dog, the longer lived and the bigger the dog, the shorter lived. Just like with people, old age is relative.
An average male collie weighs between 60 to 75 pounds and stands 26 inches at the shoulder. The female collie weighs from 50 to 60 pounds and is 22 to 24 inches at the shoulder. The sheltie runs from 13 to 16 inches tall at shoulder height and weighs from 20 to 25 pounds. The collie muzzle is longer than that of a sheltie. Both the rough collie and the sheltie carry a full, lush outer coat over a thick undercoat.
