I'm Maggie P., the breeder behind M Bar M Border Collies located in Williston, FL. We breed Border Collies whose lines have been chosen to make rally, obedience, agility and herding prospects.

Q. & A. with Maggie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My mom's sister was a breeder and judge and l grew up helping her. I have had dogs all my life and always used them on our ranch. I have always been especially interested in genetics and knowing what allows different traits to pass through.

  • What makes your program special?

    I feel that the health and temperament l select for in my lines make my dogs outstanding individuals.

    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 blue merle, red merle, black, lilac, red, and slate. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?
