I'm Christine D., the breeder behind Sugar Hill Border Collies located in Anthony, FL. Sugar Hill Border Collies has carefully selected and bred for temperament and athleticism. We raise our pups in our home and they are exposed to animals on our organic farm. Here at Sugar Hill we have 3 generations living and working together. Pups are exposed to adults, as well as, children of many age groups. We also expose them to larger dogs of other breeds.
Q. & A. with Christine

Our puppies have rough coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
