PUPPIES AND DOGS
Is A Border Collie Right For You?
Available puppies and dogs
Border Collies are special dogs, and are one of the few breeds still bred to do a job. They are in a class of their own.
A great Border Collie should be loyal, intelligent, obedient, sensible, with an “off” switch, yet willing to work at the drop of a hat. This makes them a great work dog, and can also be a good companion for those with active lifestyles.
DAVY
Want a semi-retired fully-trained dog either for very light chores on your farm, to learn herding, or as a loving, quiet companion happy to lie around, get loved on and go for quiet walks?
Davy is a 9-year-old fully-trained USBCHA Open dog. He is completely healthy and sound, sweet, housebroken and laid back. He is neutered (has been used at stud in the past).
Looking For A Puppy?
PLEASE NOTE: WE WILL NOT BE BREEDING UNTIL 2022!
Typically, we only breed once or twice a year, because we believe in producing quality companions and working dogs, not quantity.
One of the reasons you buy from a reputable breeder is health testing. We do hips, eyes and a panel of genetic tests, plus only choose the best temperaments and working ability.
The other reason you buy from a reputable breeder is we are there to help you after you bring home your pup and will always take a dog back that isn't working out.

Finding the Right Dog
Our services include assessing your needs and finding the right puppy or dog for your situation as well as helping you raise a great Border Collie.
Adult Dogs
An adult dog can be the perfect solution when you want a Border Collie but either don't want to deal with the puppy stage and the training, or want to be more certain about the personality of the dog you are getting.
We occasionally have teenage or adult dogs available, either for herding, goose work, or companionship. These dogs have a range of training from manners right up to fully-trained livestock dogs.
Special dogs require special owners
The owner of a Border Collie is a committed dog lover who likes training and spending active time with their dog.
The Border Collie is not suited to a leisurely lifestyle. Their drive and intelligence makes them excel at dog sports, search and rescue, or working all day on a farm, but those same traits can go very wrong when they are bored or when unsupervised around young children. Border Collies can be trained to have an off-switch, but be sure you are up to the task of training.
