Meet the breeder

I'm Alan W., the breeder behind Bordercolliecouple located in Goldston, NC. We are lifelong dog enthusiasts, and we’re excited to share our passion and purpose with others through our breeding program. We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish all of our animals and enjoy sharing the love of this breed with other individuals and families!

Q. & A. with Alan

  • Why did you start breeding?

    After we retired we wanted to share our experience with the breed. For us there are no others quite like this breed.
  • What makes your program special?

    All hands on. Our puppies are part of our family and are treated as such. Your new pup will be loving and rest assured they have always been cared for as our family members. They really are part of our family. I still keep in touch with most of the folks that we have sold too.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

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

    Our puppies are black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

  • Alayna R.

    Verified owner · Sept. 2025

    Alan was wonderful to work with! He obviously loves his dogs and sent us home with everything we needed for our puppy, who was healthy, clean, and sweet.

  • Rachel L.

    Verified owner · Sept. 2025

    Alan and his wife were exceptionally kind, accommodating, and informative. Alan was extremely responsive, in a timely manner, and it only took about 3 hours from first contact, to arriving at their house and purchasing our newest family member. The puppy is healthy, rambunctious and abundantly sweet. We could tell she was well-cared for, and they even gave us a whole years worth of supplies for her. The pricing was fair, and our interactions with them were positive. If we should ever decide to add more pups to our pack, we will be sure to go back to them. Thank you again, and we will be sure to send pictures of our puppy as she grows to be a beautiful dog!
