Meet the breeder
I'm Dianne T., the breeder behind Calabria Kennel located in Illinois. My focus is on excellence in every aspect of my breeding program. I offer top-quality Collie for show and pet homes. I am purposeful in everything that I do regarding my dogs, which includes careful selection of breeding dogs and extensive health testing. My goal is to produce healthy dogs with great temperaments that are exemplary representations of the breed.
Q. & A. with Dianne
Why did you start breeding?
Pat Toledano sold me my first show dog and guided me through breeding after her championship. I fell in love with the Collie breed and decided to start my own responsible breeding program in order to continue my incredible line and to share these wonderful dogs with others. I’m passionate about what I do and am dedicated to producing healthy, quality dogs.What makes your program special?
Health and socialization are what make my program special. I hold myself to the highest standard when it comes to my dogs and my policies. I am thorough in health testing and caring for my dogs, and I make sure each puppy gets the proper group and individual care that it needs to thrive. My goal is to ensure that every dog that comes from my program is set up to live a happy and healthy life and is prepared for its future role when it leaves my care. I love what I do, and I can't wait to help you welcome home you next Collie!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
