- I’m an AKC Breeder of Merit and the fifth generation in my family to breed Collies. I’ve been breeding and exhibiting Rough and Smooth Collies in conformation since 2000.
- My breeding program is focused on working with the highest quality dogs to produce correct type aligned to the official Collie Breed Standard, emphasizing sweet temperament for great family pets.
- My breeding dogs are health tested based on recommendations by the Collie Health Foundation to help produce healthy, happy, low-maintenance dogs.
- I’ve been fortunate to work with renowned Collie lines through Fantasy Collies and Rainbow Collies for many years and assist professional handler, Debbie Holland, at many Midwest Collie specialty shows.
- Along with showing and breeding dogs, I’m a well-known Collie portrait and show win photographer. See my dog show and portrait photography here.
- Along with Collies, I’ve been exhibiting and breeding French Bulldogs since 2019.
