Puppies
As health is very important to us, we only breed from hip-scored, eye
tested dogs and the puppies are eye tested and BAER hearing tested at
6 weeks. Our aim is to breed dogs with a solid temperament, which are
suitable for any discipline, be it breed showing, agility,
obedience, or herding.
The Border Collie is a lively breed, needing stimulation to stop
boredom. For this reason, we will not allow a puppy to go to a home
where all the family members work full time. A Border Collie is not
the right breed for someone who wants their dog to lie on the sofa all
day!
Our puppies are raised in the house (all our dogs are house dogs),
they are frequently handled and well socialized. They will be wormed
and registered, and they come with life-long backup. Therefore, in
the event that the owner is no longer able to keep their puppy, they
must return the puppy to us or contact us to assist with its rehoming.
We do have a waiting list for our puppies, so please get in touch
sooner rather than later. To express an interest in an upcoming
litter, please
email us some
information about yourself. On the recommendation of the vet, we are
currently planning on repeating the
Gala
to
Aragorn mating late in 2010: both
puppies from the previous litters are highly workable with great
temperaments (as well as looks!), and our vet will work closely with
us to try to get us a reasonable size litter this time. We are also
planning a litter out of
Eowyn in early 2011.
