Welcome to what collie-book writer Terhune famously described as "swirl of exultant collies."
We raise old style Collies. We also have registered Missouri Fox Trotter gaited horses/ponies as well as a few Nigerian dwarf goat and laying hens. Our collies are the historic old-style collie that the storybooks tell of. They are faithful and eager to serve with an intelligent and gentle nature. They enjoy working on our small farm, training in agility and rally obedience, accompanying us on trailrides, hikes, and city adventures too, and babysitting our children. Unlike many working and herding breeds, they are calm by nature and are content to take a nap when not working. They have a laid back attitude and are very attuned to their families' needs. They are ideal for the family, farm, therapy, or service work. They have low-maintenance coats. Our dogs weigh 35-60 lbs and have soft, biddable temperaments. If you want a loving, low-maintenance companion with high intelligence and gorgeous good looks an old-style Collie is for you. We do genetic screening on all of of our dogs as well. Our dogs are registered with the Old-Time Scotch Collie Association (OTSCA).
