Transport!

​
​I recommend Cerulean Pear Pet Transports from FL (licensed and bonded). They offer door-to-door service with lots of photos, check-in's & texts en route. They are booked waaaay out, so please connect with them early to reserve your place. in the travel adventure! Or visit Citizen Shipper for licensed & bonded transporters. 
​

Payment!

I require payment in full 5 business days prior to scheduled departure of dog. I will either send an invoice via PayPal, or payment can be rendered through Good Dog's payment portal if you located me through Good Dog (this is my agreement with Good Dog). 

Pick-up & more...!

This farmette is closed to visitors, exceptions are made for folks collecting their puppies in person. Under no circumstances do I allow animals other than our own on our property, this includes pets remaining in cars. Pets in cars must be parked at the top of our driveway & not let out at all. I thank you for respecting my position.

I avail our wee lads & lassies to conscientious, permanent, rural or urban homes with great backyards. Folks with lots of dog savvy, kindness & nurturing are required! My Collies are not for breeding kennels, though I'm are happy to send excellent, in-tact puppies into holistic dog breeding homes if the puppy is to reside in-home as a family member. I select homes for my Collies based upon what is relayed to me during initial conversations...then, I employ all of the zillions of hours I've enjoyed with the available Collies & I matchmake. The entirely dated concept of selecting a bouncing baby Collie from a basket full of puppies is just that. Dated. 

I DO NOT glue, tape, frame, post (etc...) Collie ears. I prefer the work of Mother Nature! If Collie ears are wonky, they're wonky.
.
I do not sell "service dogs", or prospects. For an ADA-specialised Collie breeding program, we recommend King's Valley. 
 
I do not export dogs, nor do I sell our puppies to brokers or agents. 

Companion puppies (to be altered at 18-24 months) vary in price.

Puppies to remain in-tact as adults (whether for breeding or not) are $4000.00-$10,000.00 depending upon color, testing, genetics & other nuances.

​I do not fly our Collies (please don't ask me to). As you've likely noted, extreme turbulence is a thing these days. The jet-stream has morphed & we would never subject a puppy to potential injury/trauma, whether in air cargo, or in the arms of a flight nanny. Beyond this, there are constant airline delays these days & I'm not cool with it. 

 First time dog owners, though admirable, are not a responsibility I can currently undertake as regards puppy placement. I adore kiddos, but prefer homes with older 4-H & FFA kids as pup-siblings. 

Our Collies require a large, grassy, well-fenced yard or pasture to which they have free access from their home. Nearby parks & trails do not qualify. In addition, my policy is to avail our puppies to home-owners with at least 1 adult present in the home at all times. Condos & apartments are not conducive to our Collie temperaments (as a rule)...though I have made many exceptions & they have been the best homes EVER!

All puppies are fed a diet of Inukshuk kibble in conjunction with daily raw meat (from Idahound) & lots of yummy tidbits (carrots, apples, broccoli, asparagus, cabbage, cheese, pasta, oatmeal, pineapple rinds, celery, kale etc...). Their future diet should resemble this.

All puppies have received a wellness exam performed by our veterinarian Dr. Elizabeth Behrenfeld & additional check-ups as I deem suitable. Should puppy-people desire further pre-purchase exams/testing/assays etc., they may do so at their sole expense & per our convenience with the licensed mobile veterinarian of their choosing. This shall be done at our home. 

I personally perform an excellent vaccine & worming protocol utilising Neo-Tech & Nobivac Edge.
​
All puppies depart with collar, leash, a large supply of dry food, a toy, their current health record & a pedigree. 

Finally, I bend over backwards to help folks achieve their Collie dreams! Occasionally, I'll find that I am falling over backwards to help folks achieve their Collie dreams. To that end, I very much reserve the right to refuse service to any one at any time. 

​ I truly wish that I had the time to respond to every questionnaire submitted to me, as I fully understand how thrilling Collies are! However, I do not reply to applicants who don't operate within my framework.
