Meet the breeder

I'm Chanelle J., the breeder behind Stratum Run Border Collies located in Barnwell, SC. At Stratum Run, the goal is to produce well-rounded dogs that love to work but can still easily settle when asked.

Q. & A. with Chanelle

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I’m still beginning that journey but I’m fully committed to building my program responsibly and carefully rather than rushing into it. I fully committed when I went down a rabbit hole of genetics, structure, and what went into producing sound, stable dogs.
  • What makes your program special?

    My goal is to focus on quality over quantity and build a program centered on versatility, health, temperament, and structure. I’m passionate in producing well rounded border collies that will succeed in active companion, sport, and working homes.
  • 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 tri-color, chocolate, lilac merle, gold merle, blue merle, red merle, black, blue, gold, lilac, red, sable, sable merle, and saddleback sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
