Parent dogs
Sarge, dad
Border Collie
About Sarge
Sarge is one of our up and coming males that enjoys pleasing his owner. He's a great dog to be around. He's coming along with his training on the livestock and we feel his pups could go on and do great in herding, agility, farm work or even an active home that enjoys an extremely loyal companion.
Dan, dad
Border Collie
About Dan
Dan is our new stud dog here. He loves to please his owner just as much as he loves to work livestock. He's a great dog to have around and we look forward to seeing how he passes his traits on to his pups. He is tested DNA clear.

Angel, mom
Border Collie
About Angel
Angel is a pup we raised and trained ourselves. She has done some competing in the trial fields. She enjoys daily work on the farm as well as long walks. She is an "in your pocket" type of dog that you'll nearly trip over because she loves to be so close to her handler! She is tested DNA clear and she is an excellent mother to her first litter.

Bloom, mom
Border Collie
About Bloom
Bloom is very biddable and wants to please her owner. Great drive but also just as happy to go for a walk with you. She's sired by Mouras Joker who has won countless Cattle trials in his career and has been featured on RFD-tv. Her dam side goes back to the NCA hall of fame dog JR Red. Blooms last litter have gone on to make great working dogs as well as great family pets!

Strap, dad
Border Collie
About Strap
Strap is hands down the smartest dog we've had here. Loves to work but has a great off switch. With a simple recall he's at your side and just as happy with you and he is working! He's sired by the highly sought after Imported Jim who had numerous offspring compete at the National finals this year in sheep and cattle. His mother goes back to the NCA Hall of fame dog JR Red. We're really excited for some offspring from Strap

Jacob was very responsive to all my messages and helped me pick out a puppy based on my needs. I was looking for a puppy that could show prospect as a livestock working dog and I think he will be a great fit for me. Mack is a wonderful puppy and very sturdy for his age. You can tell that he was well taken care of since he was born, he is a very healthy puppy. I appreciated that he was seen by a vet for his 8 week shots (not something that breeders do as much anymore). Overall a great purchasing experience and an excellent quality dog.

+4We picked our puppy (Arlo) up right at the 8-week mark and since then he's been great! Arlo has been the best dog we could've ever imagined and is so much fun! He loves car rides, meeting every person he sees, and playing with all the neighbor dogs! He has already proven how smart he is with how quickly he has picked up commands, how he figured out to coerce belly rubs out of us nonstop, and it only took him a few days to start ringing a bell when he needed to go outside. Jacob has been extremely helpful with advice on how to get him used to water and everything else we've asked him. He is very responsive and has been great to work with!

A good breeder that does things right. Puppy was as described, had a physical exam by a veterinarian and a vaccine from an actual clinic as well which is so rare these days. Also was fast to respond to messages, and was honest when the pups had a worm issue did not try to hide it or act naive but in fact called to make sure we were aware. It is obvious pup was well loved and socialized. For all of those reasons I recommend Jacob. We just love our border collie pup and cannot wait to see how she grows into her roles on the farm. (Also got to see mother dog at time of pick up which is always a good indicator of the breeder being a good responsible one that isn't hiding anything.)

For anyone that may question the process: Jacob was not only knowledgeable but very responsive. I flew from Florida and met him in Pittsburgh, I could not have been happier about the process and my pup! He gave me wipes for the plane flight and my pup was clean and happy when I picked him up! Trust me when I say this was an easy and painless process for both me and my new pup!!

We selected Boy 2, now named Jax. He’s an absolute doll and a bundle of energy! Jax is amazing with his kennel time and quickly learned the commands “sit” and “down”. He’s so smart and keeps our other doggies on their toes. Our experience with the breeder, Jacob, was great! He was quick with his responses and made sure we had everything we needed when bringing Jax home. He followed up the same day to make sure all was well and again when he suspected Jax may have worms. We’re in love with our Jax and he’s as healthy as can be!
