TRick Titles and More!

2/13/2023

Both Levi and Indi have been busy earning their Novice Trick titles from Do More With Your Dog, an international trick dog organization that CKC recognizes. Each Dog had to perform 15 tricks and the videos were sent in for evaluation. We practiced for about a week outside on the deck, and now they are starting on the Intermediate Trick Dog titles. 

Both Indi and Levi are training in CKC competition obedience and rally, and Levi will be shown in Conformation as well. He has a pretty nice natural stack, as most collies do. Conformation sure looks easy, but there's a lot to it for a first time handler! Soon the Canada geese will be returning to the wetlands where we live, and that's going to provide a lot of excitement (and work) for our collies! They love to circle in behind the geese and run them forward into flight off the property. They chase away predator birds as well, and put ravens to flight. If we owned poultry, our flocks would be well guarded!

    Welcome to High Country Collies! We are located in southeastern BC Canada, and are dedicated to the wonderful collie breed. Collies are so smart and easy to train. They are gentle, sensitive and nurturing by nature. They make great and loyal companions; they can excel at dog sports and farm life, and they're amazing and gentle with children.

    We use positive reinforcement training, and consider training a lifetime endeavour; it doesn't stop once the puppy reaches a certain age.  Our collies are both indoor and outdoor dogs - they love frolicking in the snow, they play in the lake and they keep the wild predator birds and geese off the homestead. When we breed a litter, which won't be very often, we will announce it here, as well as on our Facebook page.

    Our collies are Canadian Kennel Club registered. We will be using Puppy Culture for early neurological stimulation and enhanced learning to help our puppies achieve their best potential in life. All puppies will be matched to their new owners by temperament and other needs. Unless sold on a breeding contract, puppies will be expected to be spayed/neutered at the appropriate age. We offer lifetime support for your puppy, and are willing to answer your questions as they arise. We never want our puppies to end up in shelters or homeless, and will take back any collie we breed, at any age, with no judgement.
