Our family unexpectedly grew last week, when it was decided that Skye would be staying with us! We were fostering her for a few weeks, and she quickly had us wrapped around her paw.

Welcome home, Skye!

We have some exciting puppy plans this spring and summer, which means we are opening up a few co ownership opportunities.

These co ownerships are unique contracts, specific to each home. If you are interested, please reach out for more information!

Co owns get a few benefits, including priority placement on puppy lists.

Lucie had a great weekend at the NoLA Herding Association's February trial, and earned her HIC and HT! Super excited for this girl and her budding herding career.

We've been a little quiet the past couple weeks because we've been so busy!

Last Monday Finn showed in Best of Breed at Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Not only did he show, but he is the most titled border collie to ever show in conformation at Westminster!

By Friday, Finn was back in the herding pen, winning his HSBd class back to back, and High Started Dog-Ducks twice!

He really proved that he embodies the essence of a border collie in both type and talent last week 💜💛

We're in the home stretch of Finn's Westminster prep! A spa day was in order, of course.

Thank you Sherilyn at Fur-Ever Fresh Pet Spa for taking such good care of him! If you know me, you know I'm very picky with who I leave my dogs with, and even pickier on who uses scissors on them!

Finn's road trip starts today, and it's starting to feel surreal that this is happening!

This Valentine's Day, find someone who looks at you the way Finn looks at his dumbbell♥️😍❤️

Get you a man that can do it all! Finn and I are thrilled to represent the true do it all dog at next week, as one of the most titled border collies to ever attend. From the show ring to the field, Finn defines the essence of a border collie; versatility, athleticism, and intelligence.

29/01/2025

One week until Finn leaves for New York City! We're counting down the days til dog show!

Finn celebrated title number FIFTY this weekend! We still have a ways to our goal of one hundred, but I have no doubt we can do it.

We are thrilled to announce that we are the FIRST and ONLY border collie breeder to become Better Breeder Institute Certified. This certification is the only breeder of merit program that supports efforts to breed a better dog. It recognizes purposeful purebred dog breeders who are ambassadors for breed preservation and advancement.

To become BBI Certified, we had to submit proof of our health testing, prefix titling, facilities, and more. We are excited to be a member of this exclusive group of breeders!

Last update for the week, I promise!

Team Finn has a (loosely kept) secret, we're going to Westminster! 💜💛💜

I never dreamed that I'd have a dog entered at the Super Bowl of dog shows, but Finn has shown me time and time again that he deserves to be there.

I would be remiss to not mention that Finn will be one of, if not the, most titled border collies to attend in history. I guess he's kind of a big deal!

I'll be sure to post the link to the livestream for my non dog show friends who are Finn fans!

Finn came out for a little pre BCSA National practice, and walked away with his first Open Q and a 2nd place in a large class!

Lucie's first taste of #Fastcat

Carly is starting her training for Open. Sometimes dogs don't enjoy holding the dumbbell initially, not this one!

Finn keeps up the momentum in 2024 with some incredible agility runs this weekend. Two novice standard legs and a novice jumpers leg. A win in every class as well!

Carly got to try out Fast Cat for the first time today at a local fun run. Looks like she found a new sport to enjoy!

Another weekend of agility with Pawprints Agility Club! Finn got his first USDAA Gamblers Q, and won his class. No other Qs this weekend, but not bad for our green team.
