Meet the breeder

I'm Chelsea D., the breeder behind D8 Ranch Border Collies located in Nampa, ID. We run a cattle & sheep ranch. Meg is a beloved part of our family and a huge help with our animals. She has the most calm loving personality and is a go getter at work. Loves to play ANY type of ball, fetch, tug of war, go for long walks and runs, and anything else we do she wants to join in, she aims to please.

Q. & A. with Chelsea

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When we bought Meg we always expected we would breed her (this is her 3rd litter, but the 1st with us). We waited over a year and worked hard to learn and prepare to bring puppies into our family. It has been a wonderful experience and we look forward to meeting the families that our sweet puppies will be blessed to join.
  • 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 blue merle, red merle, black, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
