The reason for this is that they are not the best qualified dogs for producing better and better collies. If you are interested in breeding stock, we do have some available. Please feel free to inquire not only about puppies, but older dogs who might be looking for a retirement home, or who we have grown out only to find that the needs of our breeding program have changed and they no longer are an intregal part of it. We ask that before deciding on the type of dog you want to own, you evaluate your needs, inclinations and requirements. Not every dog or every breed is right for every person.
Collies tend to be quiet members of the family indoors but active outside.
They enjoy a good romp and play session but also enjoy curling up on the couch with their people. If your main desire in a dog is someone to play fetch with, other breeds like retrievers, might be a better choice for you. Collies love to be with people and can become easily bored by themselves in the backyard. A bored dog can be a problem dog. Boredom leads to distructive behavior like digging and chewing and often to barking.
