*New breeding for 2025!!

Both parents have been full panel health tested via GenSol (for NAD) and via Embark. Both parents are full panel clear. Pups should be between 13 - 15 inches in height and under 20 pounds full grown. Based on parents' temperaments, these pups will be VERY sweet and amazing. Gracie is a very soft natured and friendly dog. She is not picky about anything and simply goes with the flow. She is extremely docile. She is highly intelligent, easy to train, obedient, and calm. She is focused, predictable, loyal, and observant. She is affectionate with all of the family opposed to being one person oriented. She also self occupies very well. She loves being around other dogs and puppies but is also not bothered by being alone. As for conformation, Gracie is perfect all around. Perfect ear set, nice almond eyes, great bone, great muscle, great balance, beautiful coat, perfect bite, and an amazing gate. She has recently placed 1st place in two dog shows. We used Trigger (a stud from Lindsey's Aussies) who will compliment her very well with his outgoing and friendly nature. He has an amazing build. He conforms structurally in every way. He passes down a very deep/rich copper to his offspring. He is a proven producer. On his profile, we have listed past litters of Lindsey's with him as the sire. Go ahead and check them out! If you are looking for an extremely loyal life companion and want a dog to accompany you and your family with a calm and gentle disposition, who can also self occupy while you are busy or away, then a pup from this litter is your best bet. These puppies are likely to always have a forever puppy-face with big puppy dog eyes, even as adults :). Waitlist is open. If you don't make the waitlist for this breeding, you will be notified and placed on the next breeding. 4 spots are available for this breeding.

It is imperative to join our waitlist if you are interested, so that we can make breeding decisions based on demand for our pups. NOTE: We will have a gender preference, but not all families will be guaranteed that gender. Please check out our content on instagram and facebook.

Both parents are full panel clear for DNA/health, including NAD! It has been SO difficult to find males who will complement all of Oakley's amazing traits, but we think we finally found one! Oliver's amazing personality and calm, content, and eager demeanor will complement Oakley very well. Oliver is very calm, extremely playful, and very confident. He is super affectionate and loves any kind of human or dog interaction. He is such an obedient young pup and also fearless. A major plus to this breeding is that Oliver will tone down Oakley's high drive. These pups should be perfect companions. Both parents are also blue eyed carriers and red factored. We will likely get blue eyed tri's or red/blue merle's from this pairing. I anticipate these puppies will have a medium drive (which makes that off switch so much easier to train) and cuddly demeanors with very high intelligence. They will want to work for you. These pups should be smaller, mini size. Estimating between 25 and 40 pounds. 

Based on BOTH parents' temperaments, these dogs will be extremely agile, cuddly, obedient, energetic with a medium-high herding drive, yet very biddable and very eager to please with excellent off switches. They will easily learn tricks, tasks, and participate in any activity with you and the family. They would make amazing agility prospects and will most likely be on the smaller side. They will be naturally friendly and gentle with people and children or smaller dogs at play. Oakley is one of the smartest dogs I have ever owned. She is clever and has a sense of humor. I compare her intelligence to that of a 4-year-old child. Seriously. The dog is a genius! She is my best friend and the love of my life. Her charming, gentle, and playful personality wins everyone who meets her over. Oakley is well versed in herding endeavors and agility and can learn commands in two repititions. If you are seeking an active family oriented collie for companionship, agility, tricks, or sport, a pup from this litter would be your best bet. If you don't make the waitlist for this breeding, you will be placed on the next breeding. 3 spots still available for this breeding.

Scarlett is full panel clear as is Shadow, including NAD. She is a blue harlequin merle with deep copper undertones and a long silky wavy coat. She has amazing conformation and a very traditional Aussie look. She is very charming and easy going. She is highly obedient and biddable. She is a very fast learner and has a silly and soft natured personality. She is average drive with a great off switch. She will immediately win over anyone's heart instantly with the way she adores people. She is one of the best tempered dogs we have. She does not have an ounce of fear or aggression. She is OBSESSED with water or any water activities and of course the ball. She is a "family" dog, being that she does not favor one person over the other for affection, however she still follows me around everywhere. It was a blessing to have found such a wonderful girl for our program with such an amazing temperament, and that opportunity not to pass us up! She descended from decades of show lines and dogs with proven structural accuracy. She is currently showing in conformation.

After a temperament analysis of both parents' traits, Shadow is A PERFECT pairing for her.  Shadow is minimal white black tri with a long flashy and silky straight coat! With this pairing we will have lots of variation of coat color as well as reds with deep copper undertones. I love the long silky coat traits as they are SO easy to maintain and shedding seems to be less of a mess. Shadow is an extremely laid back boy. He is a lap dog. Anytime anyone sits down, he goes straight to the lap! Shadow is VERY affectionate, loyal, and eager to please (as is Scarlett). He is fearless (as is Scarlett) and is the ultimate companion. He wants to be wherever his favorite people are at all times. He loves people and animals of all kinds. He also enjoys and excels at agility and tricks and enjoys playing (especially in water, same as Scarlett). He is brilliant to say the least. When he was a baby, he was the first at everything. The first to waddle, the first to open his eyes, and the first to seek human interaction. He is very intuitive and sensitive to human emotion. We held Shadow back for our program because of his temperament and unique characteristics. He scored as "the perfect dog" on his Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test (PAT), which he has turned out to be just that! He will complement Scarlett with both traits and looks! He has deep rich copper that will enhance hers and they will produce some unique and beautiful pups. 

We will be holding a puppy back from this litter as well (a third generation HFA Male) which will be future paired to a female that we hold back from one of Mickey and Delilah's litters. SO EXCITED!! 

These babies could be small to medium toys. Possibly 11 - 13" weighing between 8 and 15 pounds (est). This litter will likely be the perfect companions, fearless, completely suitable for emotional support, service animal work, for people of all ages, travel or any activity/endeavor you plan for them! If you want a very sweet puppy who will adore you and your family and be an obedient, easy to train, loyal 'family' dog... a pup from this litter is your best bet. This littler will be very focused. If you don't make the waitlist for this breeding, you will be placed on the next breeding. 3 spots still available for this breeding. Remaining pups after waitlist picks will be listed.

100% of the litter is predicted to have a black tan point coat with black pigment and masking.

Both parents are full panel DNA/health tested and clear, including NAD! Based on parents' temperaments, these pups will be amazing. Just. amazing. Delilah is the perfect dog, in every way. She is highly intelligent, fearless, people oriented, eager to please, extremely affectionate, VERY focused, endearing, and silly. She gets along with people and animals alike. And oh my gosh she is full of facial expressions its hiliarious! Shes human like in sooo many ways. She loves to love you and to please you. She has a big heart, and loves to be spoiled and coddled. She is a little drama queen. She expects to be treated as if she is a child (and yes, we are guilty of spoling her to this extent!). She is lower energy, but ready for any activity you have planned for her. She is one of the best dogs I have ever owned. She stole my heart completely with her phenomenal human-like personality. She excels with tricks and self occupies very well. She LOVES to dance. Girls' got some moves! Check her out on our social media pages. As for conformation, she is perfect. Perfect ear set, nice almond eyes, great bone, great muscle, great balance, beautiful coat, perfect bite, and her gate is amazing. In her very first show ever (at 12 weeks of age), she won best in class, best female, and best of breed.. If we didn't have to leave the show early, she could have easily won best in show. Hopefully next time!! We have decided that Dragon will be her sire, who is her grandfather's great great grandson. This is a very safe line-breeding to solidfy the BEST of the "dragon" lines. We expect per pups will be heavily sought after. We very carefully selected him based on generations of proven temperament within his bloodlines. Dragon's traits will compliment Delilah to a t. He is robust, eager to please from a very young age, very people friendly and outgoing, very playful and affectionate. He has great conformation just like generation of his parents'. Great head, muscle density, bone, bite, and eye set. He is already displaying a symmetrical gate and remarkable balance as a puppy. He is a show champ, who placed first place in two classes recently. If you are looking for a very well rounded Aussie, with a traditional look in a smaller package, a pup from this litter will be your best bet. I also expect this litter to have a low herding/prey drive and just the right amount of energy. The personality of this litter will simply be magical.

Current Waitlist: 4 (FULL)

(Note, you can still specify an interest in this breeding as some people could pass on a pup (if for instance the gender they want is not available, deciding not to wait this long, or the dam has more than 4 puppies). This pairing will also occur again, after Delilah recovers fully and is cleared by the vet.

Both parents are full panel health/DNA tested and clear, including NAD! Based on parents' temperaments, these dogs will be agile, athletic, fearless, obedient, energetic with a high herding drive, biddable, polite, playful, and very eager to please. They will easily learn tricks, tasks, and partake in any activity with you. They will excel with herding, agility, and obedience and will have a higher drive. They will be naturally people friendly and gentle, but may favor one person in the family. Kallie is very affectionate. Kallie likes to watch everything you do and wait for commands. She is clever and also has a sense of humor. One of her favorite games is hide and seek with our daughters. She also tries to herd everything, even the other Collies. I compare her intelligence to that of a 3 or 4 year old child. Kallie loves people and is very sensitive to human emotion. She is a service dog and is currently in training. We are planning for her to go into an additional therapy dog program due to her desire for human affection. If you are seeking a tentative, loyal, family oriented and highly motivated dog for companionship or work/herding, a pup from this litter would be your best bet. If you don't make the waitlist for this breeding, you will be notified and placed on the next breeding. 6 spots are still available for this breeding.

River is also very loyal and polite. River has a silly and adorable personality, and is also very eager to please. River is very curious, and has a lot of confidence. River is a champion in conformation and has earned his "PDH" (polite herding dog) performance titles. River is also more outgoing and will compliment Gracie who is a bit more reserved. River is also smaller, so these pups will be inbetween the two. If you are looking for an extremely loyal life companion and want a dog to accompany you and your family with a calm and gentle disposition, who can also self occupy while you are busy or away, then a pup from this litter is your best bet.

Both parents have been full panel health tested via GenSol (for NAD) and via Embark. Both parents are clear of everything, including NAD. Based on parents' temperaments, these pups will be little characters to say the very least. Cassie is a very loving and gentle dog, great with other dogs/animals and young children. She is highly intelligent, easy to train, obedient and very eager to please, extremely affectionate, and calm. She loves to be babied. Like her full sister (Delilah), she is focused and absolutely endearing, but she is far more observant and less curious. Her loyalty is through the roof, far beyond that of any dog I have ever owned. Cassie is definitely a "shepherd's shadow". She also self occupies very well, as long as she is by your side. She is VERY ONE PERSON oriented. She picks one person in her family (me!) to give most of her affection and loyalty to, which is a trait common to the Aussie breed -- however, some Aussies display this trait more than others. She possesses more of this trait than any of our other dogs. She loves to go anywhere I go, including traveling. She is a great little travel companion, even if its just up the road to the local Tractor Supply Co or an hour away to the farm.

As for conformation, both of them are perfect. Perfect ear set, nice almond eyes, great bone, great muscle, great balance, beautiful coat, perfect bite, and an amazing gate. In Cassie's very first show with her previous owner, she earned the title of an International Puppy Champion through the International Canine Kennel Club. She does come from international lines. We currently believe River will compliment her very well, as he is extremely outgoing and people oriented. River is also very loyal and polite. River has a silly and adorable personality, and is also very eager to please. River is very curious, and has a lot of confidence. River is a champion in conformation and has earned his "PDH" (polite herding dog) performance title. If you are looking for an extremely loyal life companion and want a dog to accompany you day-to-day with a calm and gentle demeanor that loves to be babied and coddled, a pup from this litter is your best bet. Pups from this breeding may also be excellent candidates for service or emotional support for their human. These puppies are likely to always have a forever puppy-face with big puppy dog eyes, even as adults. Waitlist is open. If you don't make the waitlist for this breeding, you will be notified and placed on the next breeding. 4 spots still available for this breeding.
