We breed and raise wonderful working Collies. We work with them constantly, training and getting ready for shows. They really love all the work and attention. Currently, we do not show in conformation because this has never been our passion. We have a deep passion for Agility, Packing, and Obedience. We breed our dogs to do well in these areas.

All of our dogs are raised with the family and treated as pets as well as show dogs. They are kept in the house at night and not in a kennel. We train with positive reinforcement wherever possible. Very little negative reinforcement is needed with these dogs.

Over the years we have had many extraordinary Collies. This page will always contain the dogs that we currently own. Every couple of years we have a litter and keep one of the puppies. Check back after the next litter to see our new addition!
