Sadie was the dog that started it all. I dreamed of having a Border Collie since being a little girl and my eldest daughter shares my passion for this beautiful intelligent breed also. That’s when we happened upon the Merle Border Collies and I was sold. We searched for a puppy and when we saw Sadie, I knew she was our dog. Sadie is a lover. She is very calm, with a beautiful quiet temperament and people oriented and loves playing ball with our family. She is most content right at our feet and comes up to me, burrowing her head under my arm for cuddles.
Sadie has proven to be a five-star mother and has whelped our famous full merle litter, including two Harlequin pups who caught the interest of a researcher from Clemson University in South Carolina.

Pippa
Lilac Border Collie
20kg
As the newest female addition to our program we are still learning a lot about Miss Pippa but so far she has proven to be such a little lady. We love getting to know her everyday as we keep working on basic training and we are so excited to see where she helps us take our program!
While she has completed a Border Collie - Full Breed Profile for us, it has been noted that she carries one copy of Adult Onset Deafness . Because she only carries one copy of the AOD gene, this is known as Heterozygotes, or carrier, and she is clinically asymptomatic.
Recognition of carrier dogs allows their inclusion in the breeding program, with obtaining healthy litters when mating with clear dogs, and at the same time it enables avoiding mating two carriers or affected dogs and appearance of affected puppies. Simultaneously, keeping carriers in cleverly planned breeding program will maintain the stability of the genetic pool, without increasing the risk of new, unknown disorders emerging. Genetic tests for dogs offer an easy and simple way to identify the genetic heritage of your dog and improve the quality of future litters without the deleterious effects of gene pool shrinkage.
