17.01.2022 This post is from 2 years ago & very important now with the recent increase in scams. I do let people come & see puppies & mum/parents. However with the increase in parvo cases you may not be able to have contact with puppies until after vaccinations

17.01.2022 There are so many scams at the moment. Quality ANKC Registered Pedigree Border Collie puppy prices from reputable breeders should be $2000 to $3000, maybe slightly more if using imported stud or semen. For that price parents should be hip & elbow scored & DNA tested for hereditary diseases, puppies should have first vaccination & be microchipped. The puppy also will be at least 8 weeks old before it can leave mum & breeder. You should be able to see mum & puppies even if you... can't touch them for health & safety reasons if not fully vaccinated. Some breeders might only give out their address once you are definitely getting a puppy, again for safety reasons. There are also many scams around targeting breeders by stealing puppies or trying to get puppies before money is paid. Take note of litter photos, if each puppy photo is taken in a very different setting/background, the photo is probably stolen & it is a scam. Another scam recently had Border spelt incorrectly (Boarder). If in doubt contact Dogs Queensland or the state body in the state the puppy is advertised for ANKC registered breeders to confirm details. Do not buy through Gumtree or Trading Post. For Border Collies you can also check with breed clubs, Border Collie Club Qld or NSW etc. See more

10.01.2022 Here is a video talking about Teaching your new puppy how to behave when you are out walking in public when there are other dogs around. I'll also talk about of...f leash dog parks! I think we have all seen the dogs that get over excited or react badly when they see another dog while out walking! In this video I'll explain the common mistakes people make and what you can do to prevent it with a puppy. I'll also talk about what I am doing with Easy to make sure she has nice manners when we see dogs while out walking.

07.01.2022 I am getting a lot of puppy enquiries lately. So just to let everyone know, I don't have a litter planned until late this year or Jan/Feb next year. I am only expecting black & white puppies from these litters.

01.01.2022 As promised my article on - The Young & the Hyperactive dog - How should they be managed? I've been living with Border Collies now since 1992 and there have be...en many!. Over the years I've learnt lots about "Hyperactive adrenaline junkies" as I call them. Every time someone new sees me with the dogs they say "Gee I bet they need a lot of exercise". Its funny how everyone just assumes high energy breed ='s must have lots of high energy exercise! Well this is often the first huge mistake new owners of high energy breeds make! Why? Some dogs get a "high" off the adrenaline that is released by high energy exercise & this is very addictive to these dogs! These high energy dogs often have the ability to go all day once their fitness is built up! So wearing them out becomes impossible! What happens when you can't give them their Adrenaline release for a few days or a few weeks?? They go crazy! Breaking an exercise routine can also cause high stress levels in these dogs. Some of these dogs will have high arousal levels that are redirected to Car Chasing or reacting to dogs barking behind fences etc. So what should we do? The first thing I teach my Border Collie puppies is how to just chill & do nothing! This means I food reward being still & I do this often. I teach them how to be happy & relaxed in a Puppy Pen & Crate. I try & keep exercise calm. Don't let them develop into "Exercise Junkies"! Control high energy exercise like ball throwing & racing around with other dogs. I don't develop a Routine! We all know those dogs who start running around & getting worked up, because they know 5pm is the time you take the dog out for their exercise! I'm very unpredictable when I take the dogs out for exercise & also the type of exercise. Direct your exercise depending on the dog. If your dog is "high as a kite" then going out to the park & throwing the ball for them over & over... Is only going to increase their adrenaline release! Controlled on lead walking maybe a better choice? I want adult dogs who have excellent 'OFF" switches & this is learnt best in the first 12mths of their life. I call it teaching my dogs to be "Lazy" Just lie about on the lounge & do nothing! I can wear a dog out much easier by doing training & working their mind. Dogs need mental stimulation. This is why I love trick training. I also use lots of different food dispensing toys to keep them occupied. I however do require some of my dogs to be very fit for the work they do & hence they do get a huge amount of exercise! But I'm prepared to have high energy Adrenaline Junkies that do require a lot of training. I don't think most people want this...So be careful what you create!! but still my young dogs only get controlled exercise with a "when I feel like it motto" to enhance my OFF Switch when nothing is happening!.
