A Note About Breeding
I retired from breeding Shetland Sheepdogs in 2020 after eighteen years. While I am happy to discuss my experiences as a breeder, I cannot provide referrals to current breeders or assist with puppy placements.
If you are looking for a Sheltie or Collie puppy, I recommend contacting your regional breed club:
- American Shetland Sheepdog Association
- Collie Club of America
These organizations maintain breeder referral programs and can help you find a responsible breeder in your area.
Response Time
I read every email personally and try to respond within a few days. If you are writing about a difficult situation - particularly the loss of a beloved dog - please know that I understand, and I will answer as thoughtfully as I can.
Thank you for being part of this community of dog lovers.
