We health test our parent dogs to screen for genetic issues common in Border Collies, such as hip dysplasia and eye disorders. We carefully select breeding pairs to enhance both temperament and health, and each puppy undergoes a health check, vaccinations, and microchipping before going home.
We specialize in a variety of coat colors and patterns, including white and wheaten/chocolate/black/lilac, tri-color and merle (plus more to come in the future ). Our dogs are medium to long-haired, and we breed for coats that showcase the breed’s beautiful and distinct appearance.
Puppies are exposed to various household noises, toys, environments, children, and other animals from an early age. We also introduce basic manners and positive reinforcement to help them adjust to their new homes smoothly.
We take the time to understand each puppy’s temperament and personality, as well as the lifestyle and preferences of the adopting family. Our goal is to match puppies to homes where they will thrive based on energy levels, personalities, and family dynamics.
Our puppy care package includes a crate, blanket with the mother’s scent, bowls, toys, collar, lead, grooming supplies, a week’s worth of food, treats, a training booklet, and a record folder with vaccination and health details. We aim to set each family up for success with everything needed for their new companion.
To reserve a puppy, we require an initial deposit. This deposit ensures your place in line for upcoming litters and allows us to start the process of pairing the right puppy with your family. We’ll discuss your preferences and provide guidance on selecting your new family member.
Puppies are ready to go to their new homes around 8-10 weeks of age. This allows enough time for critical socialization, health checks, and bonding with their mother and littermates.
Absolutely! We offer lifetime breeder support, so you can reach out at any time for advice on training, health, and care. We’re committed to ensuring our puppies thrive in their new homes and are always here to help.
We encourage all owners to reach out to us if they can no longer care for their dog. We assist in rehoming, ensuring the dog finds a loving new family and never ends up in a shelter or rescue. If this is not possible, we will happily take the puppy/dog back at any age to live with us.
Yes, we welcome visits by appointment! Meeting the puppies and parents provides insight into the dogs’ temperaments and the environment they are raised in.
Border Collies are known for their intelligence, loyalty, and high energy. They thrive in active households where they can participate in physical activities and mental stimulation, making them great companions for families who enjoy an active lifestyle.
Yes, Border Collies can be excellent family dogs. They are loyal and gentle with children when properly socialized. Our puppies are raised with children, which helps them adapt well to family environments.
Border Collies are highly energetic and require at least an hour of exercise daily. Puppies need shorter, age-appropriate play sessions, gradually building up to their full exercise requirements as they grow.
We recommend high-quality, protein-rich dog food tailored for active breeds. We provide guidance on transitioning to your chosen food and are happy to make specific recommendations based on your puppy’s needs. They will leave our care with a bag of ‘Advance Puppy Medium’ kibble and wet food tins, however we also recommend transitioning them onto a partial raw diet too such as ‘Big Dog’.
Yes, we provide regular photo updates of the puppies as they grow and develop. We enjoy sharing these milestones with our puppy families.
