Quamash BCs
Meet the breeder
I'm Frances H., the breeder behind Quamash BCs located in Connecticut. Our dogs are bred for health, temperament, and ability. We strive to produce beautiful, athletic and versatile beloved companions. Border Collies are an incredible breed, and we decided to start our breeding program in order to preserve the wonderful qualities we found in our dogs. They excel across a wide spectrum of sports venues including Agility, Disc and Dock Diving. We are dedicated to improving our dogs with each generation so our puppies will thrive as sporting companions for a long time to come.
