We love chatting and meeting with potential buyers to make sure everyone is educated about what to look for in a reputable breeder and knows the origins of the breed. When buying from us, you can rest assured knowing your puppy is as healthy as possible within limitations of current OFA exams, genetic profiling, other health testing such as BAER and CAER testing.

Only one of four puppies/ adults that come into our program are entered in our program after their first two years of testing. We run rigorous working ability, temperament, and health testing. We only breed dogs that are free and clear of any common collie genetic abnormalities (such as MDR1, CEA, TNS, etc.). Short of a previous injury, we only keep dogs in our program that have been OFA systems testing come out as normal or non-clinical. These tests cannot be done, unless preliminary on dogs younger than 24 months of age. We test for patellar laxation, degenerative shoulder joint disease, thyroid disease, congenital or acquired heart disease, elbow dysplasia, hip dysplasia; and lastly test the lumbar, cervical, and thoracic spine for anything that may pass on to puppies. We test both parents of each litter.
