I'm Stacey H., the breeder behind Hoskins Collies located in Norris City, IL. My name is Stacey. Along with my husband Jim, we are the owners of Hoskins Collies. Our 4 legged family has complete run of the yard and climate controlled kennel to sleep at night. They are handled on a daily basis and groomed weekly. We will only allow our puppies to go to loving/caring families.
Q. & A. with Stacey
Why did you start breeding?
due to the fact that collies seemed to be harder to find in our area, thought I would give others the opportunity of enjoying this wonderful breed of dog. We purchased Bojangles and then 2 months later picked up Raven. Thru the first litter of Bo and Raven I decided to keep Annie and we added Memphis to our family.
What makes your program special?
The first thing that comes to mind on what makes my program special is love. All of my 4 legged friends are family.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have rough coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include sable merle and sable and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Stacey is so kind, quick and consistent in communicating all things puppy. From vet checkups to breed and litter questions. I love that she sends pictures and videos of the puppies while you wait for them to be ready. Luke is so sweet and well behaved already! I’d recommend Hoskins Collies to anyone☺️

Stacey was amazing to work with! She sent me multiple pictures and videos of Honey and answered any questions I had along the way. When I went to pick up my puppy she was so sweet and let me meet Honey's parents and grandparents! She even gave me a little care package of food, a toy, and some other puppy items to help make the long drive with Honey much easier. You can tell that she absolutely loves her dogs and treats them as family. If you're looking for a collie, Hoskins Collies is the one to go to!
