Hidey Hole Kennel

Angela S.

Breeder of Border Collies

Meet the breeder

I'm Angela S., the breeder behind Hidey Hole Kennel located in St. Louis County, MN. The Embark DNA test showed two healthy border collies with compatible DNA. We managed a modest litter of 5.

Q. & A. with Angela

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I had the time and resources, found a compatible male for my healthy, well-adjusted, moderate energy dam.
  • What makes your program special?

    I'm breeding tri-colors that are DNA- and vet-tested healthy, athletic, smart and beautiful. The pups travel to my office with me during the week and are well socialized and puppy cultured. Potty trained and some recall.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have rough coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
