Meet the breeder

I'm Thomas B., the breeder behind Border Hollow Border Collies located in Meridian, MS. I am passionate about raising well-rounded pups who will excel in any venue with their new families.

I am passionate about the work I do and truly love my dogs.

Q. & A. with Thomas

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My puppies’ health and wellbeing are my main priorities. I commit to devoting my time, energy, and efforts to each litter to ensure my puppies are properly socialized from the moment they are born and prepared to excel throughout life's adventures.
  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs are bred to produce healthy, sound, and versatile pups. My ultimate goal is to produce athletic and well-structured canines that can excel within various performance venues and have the ability to be the greatest family companions. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for before joining their forever homes. Each pup is raised inside my home where it can be evaluated and socialized before leaving.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include rough and smooth coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include lilac merle, blue merle, black, red, white and blue, white and blue merle, seal, and slate. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Thomas was easy to work with. We told him exactly what kind of dog we were looking for and he made several suggestions. He not only knows the breed but he was very knowledgeable about the parents of the puppies we picked out. He answered all of our questions and was patient while we made our selection. Thomas sent us a video and from that we chose the right one! Our female puppy has a wonderful temperament and personality and we couldn't be happier. I would recommend this breeder to anyone who loves Border Collies!

    Thomas is very knowledgeable about the breed and steered me towards the right litter for the type of border collie I wanted. Setting up the transportation and info was very easy to do with Thomas. His pup is super confident and absolutely beautiful he gets along with everyone and is the exact kind of pup I wanted. If you're thinking of getting a border collie Thomas pups are the ones to get. My fiancé and I are super happy with our new pup, and it was all thanks to Thomas.

    Working with Mr Thomas was a wonderful experience. He was extremely knowledgeable on the breed & helped us pick the perfect pup. My husband and I are just over a month married & live on his family farm. He wanted a dog as a companion and help on the farm! Our little collie has been perfect & is having so much fun. We love him so much and are so appreciative of Mr Thomas!

    We can't thank Thomas enough for responding to all of our many questions while making a difficult decision to select one of his adorable puppies. He not only provided photographs, but made a video in order for us to get a better idea of the personality of the puppy. Since we live several states away, it was necessary for us to have the puppy flown home, and he was willing to drive a great distance in order to bring the puppy to the airport that our flight-nanny booked. We were thrilled to see that she was even more beautiful in person, and had the most amazing and affectionate personality. If any one of our friends or family are looking for a border collie puppy, we would most definitely recommend this breeder.

    Thomas clearly loves his pups! He went above and beyond to arrange the handover of our gorgeous puppy who traveled well on his first flight and has settled beautifully with his new pack. He is a lovely little guy with a curious nature and holds his own with the big dogs. This is in no small way the result of a loving and well socialized environment.Thank you Thomas, we are very happy with our pup!

    Thomas was great throughout the entire process. He has more than proven to be extremely knowledgeable about this breed, kind, and responsive. He was very quick to respond to any questions we had while also providing updates (pictures, videos) of her growth and progress. It is evident that he cares deeply about his dogs and their pups as he invites, welcomes, and appreciates updates on how our pup has been adjusting to her new home. Also, he has contributed sound advice on what we can do to make the transition as smooth as possible for Fly. We could not have asked for a better experience with Thomas and Borderhollow Border Collies.
