Q. & A. with Sue

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We wanted to do our part to better the breed. Our breeding program strives to maintain the unique characteristics of the Bearded Collies while placing an emphasis on producing puppies of superior health, temperament, and conformation. These pups have proven to be wonderful companions in my life, and it is a privilege to share that love and friendship with others.
  • What makes your program special?

    We take great care with each breeding to ensure we are producing puppies that are excellent representations of the breed. We love what we do and truly want the very best for our puppies and their forever families! We consult with our breeders and take our breeding program seriously to get the BEST! We train the puppies following "Puppy Culture." With that said, this helps them in so many ways!
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
