Q. & A. with Mary

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding many years ago with Border Collies to help preserve and better the breed. I had many puppies go on to excel in various sports and shows and carry on the excellence of the Border Collie. After not breeding for many years, I decided to get back into breeding to produce a mix that would suit the need in my surrounding community for a dog that could fit both farm and family life.
  • What makes your program special?

    My breeding program is special because it's goal is to create a dog that can fit into both farm and family life. With the rise of homesteads and family farms many have found the need for livestock guardian dogs however they do not want a traditional farm dog. We have set out to create a mix that's temperament and ability allows them to work the farm by day and be a family dog at night.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are large size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have long coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
