2) send deposit of $300

3) wait for missy to send videos of pups available 

4) Pick your pup or pass to another litter 

5) Get weekly videos or photos of your pup as i'm able :) 

6) at 8 weeks, pay balance of $1500, and take home your new baby 

7) call, text or email missy anytime with training or health questions 

New Puppy Application

Please answer all questions honestly. If there's an answer that is a "red flag" for me, i'll discuss and see if we can come up with a solution. My goal is for you to have the absolute best dog you've ever had, and for our pups to go to the best home they could ask for, so it's extremely important for us to be sure that a Border Collie is the right fit. If you'd prefer to speak on the phone, that's perfectly fine as well 603-833-1767

  1. Please introduce yourself and your family, letting me know who lives in the house and ages 
  2. Where do you live, and what kind of home do you live in? ( house, apartment, tent, boat... yes, i've had fantastic homes for our dogs in all of these, depending on lifestyle!) 
  3. Please tell me your experience with dogs in the past , and what your lifestyle looks like ( retired, hikers, farmers, work at home , work full time , etc )
  4. Please tell me how you plan to keep your pup safe, give him/her adequate mental and physical exercise, socializing , and your plans for Vet care and training, ( It's okay if this isn't determined yet) 
  5. Please let me know if  your pup will be a family pet, or a a working dog. Please remember, all Border Collies have a need for mental and physical stimulation, but some will require more than others. Also, what is your preference for gender, color, and weight ( if any) ? We do not have all colors, and cannot promise a certain color, but you can wait as long as you like for a certain color, if desired. 
  6. If you've already owned a BC or another similar herding dog, then there's usually not too much discussion, but i still like to get to know my families a bit!

Updates and photos


We will do our best to send photos or videos once a week. We spend hours a day caring for our dogs and puppies , and we have emails, phone calls , and messages daily that also keep us busy. We know that you Are excited to see progress of your puppy growing and learning new things, and we will do our best to keep lots of videos and photos sent weekly!

Visitors

We do not allow visits until  pups are ready to go to their new homes .This is to prevent our mama's from becoming stressed , and to protect young pups from getting sick ( Our Vet's recommendation). We will send videos of puppies available,  and at your request, can do face-time or additional videos of our farm , so you can see our home, our adult dogs or pups. When you come to pick up your puppy at our home, you will meet both parents. We have a facebook page that has many albums of photos , where you can see our dogs and our home. 

Giving and donations

We give at least $100 from each puppy sale to a charity! Sometimes a local shelter, a missionary, or clothing for the needy, etc. We feel that since God has blessed us , it is only right to give back to him!


“In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive “

Acts 20:35

Suggested Items to purchase for your new pup

Pet Safe Wireless system

This is the fence system we recommend for keeping your Border Collie safe and in your yard

We Love using the wireless system by Pet Safe! This unit keeps your dog close to the home and keeps him safe from chasing things and animals !  It adjusts to different perimeters and is easy to use. There are no wires to bury and it takes minutes to install And only a day or two for training ! ( I can train a dog to it in about an hour!) 

Crate

A crate will be his special place to go to be alone or sleep or be kept safe when not being watched. Also a great tool for potty training! My absolute favorite is the "Diggs" Evolv crate. 

Stainless steel Dishes

stainless steel water dishes are great to attach to the crate

We like to use stainless dishes from ”Midwest “ company, that screw onto the crate. They can’t be dumped ! 

Lik-it dog water dispenser

make sure your border collie puppy always has fresh water

These are great! If you leave your dog in his crate overnight , this is a great way to offer him water. 

Toys

Bones

Our Border Collie puppies in SC love to play!

Border Collies love to play! Make sure you have lots of toys to offer them . They especially love tennis balls and frisbee! 

Bones

Bones

Border Collie puppies love to chew real bones

Real Bones, not rawhide, are best ! Bones keep them busy and are great for their teeth. 

Collar and leash

Collar and leash

Collar and leash

make sure to have a secure leash and collar for your puppy !

A good fitting collar is important. Most pups are 8-10 pounds when they go home. Your puppy can learn to walk on a leash as soon as you get him home. There are also many nice harness sets as well. 

Prices

Prices :

The total cost of each puppy is $1800, regardless of color and sex. A $300 non refundable deposit will be deducted from the total amount, to have you placed on my waiting list or to hold your puppy . If you do not wish to be on my deposit list, you can be added to my non deposit list, but will be contacted after all the "deposit list" families have picked their pup. 

Breeding dogs will cost an additional $1000 and homes must be approved first.




Adopt or Shop?

We support and encourage adoption of all pets, but adopting a pet from a rescue isn't for everyone. 

Why Adopt from a Reputable breeder? Certain dogs have unique traits. Purebred dogs carry those unique traits , so you know what you are getting. Adopting from a good breeder has many pros: 

1. You will have the help from the breeder 

2. You will have a home for your dog if you ever cant keep him , or help to re-home him. 

3. You will have a dog that has been specifically bred for certain traits that you are looking for ( herding, hunting, guard dog, lazy pet, etc) 

4. Your dog will have a pedigree , where you can see who his ancestors are. 

5. Your dog will be well cared for and loved since birth, being well socialized and given appropriate vaccines and deworming. 

6. Your dog will have parents that have been health tested for genetic disorders, so you know they cant be passed on. 

7. A good breeder will only breed the best examples of the breed, and will get the females fixed if they are not high quality. 

8. Registered Dogs can compete in Agility , shows, and other sports. 

9. You can check the breeder's references 

10. You can meet the parents or see videos of the parents to see how they interact with people. 

11. There will be less chance of a purchased dog ending up in a shelter.
