Border Collie Puppies
We currently have 1 Tri Female, 2 Sable Females and 1 Tri Brown, 2 Brown/White Males available. Please fill out an application if you’re interested in bringing a Willowcreek Border Collie Puppy into your family.
FALL/WINTER 2023 | TESSA/BOSTON – FULL
Tessa and Boston have mated. We are assuming puppies will arrive around November 5th. This litter is currently full.
If you are open to being placed on any of the litters (there will be room if larger litters are produced) please note it on your application. Puppies are due to begin arriving mid July. You can note your preferred litter and we’ll do our best but please note if you are open to any.
Lily/Boston
We do expect Lily to go into heat and mate shortly (they typically cycle close together), this litter currently has 2 spots left.
Spring 2024 Pairings
Lizzie/Jax Early Spring 2024 – FULL
This litter is full and we expect no movement.
Ivy/Tavish – Sable only litter
This litter’s temperament will be similar to our Tessa/Boston pairing. Ivy is incredibly biddable and loves her people. She is higher drive then our Riley lines however these girls have exceptional off switches and when paired with the calmness of our boys (Tavish included!), they produce excellent medium-high drive who can excel in sports, hike until you drop (no, they never will) and chill with you for Netflix’s binging. Versatile and super keen.
Late Spring/Early Summer 2024
Tessa/Boston – B/W, Sable and Blue, Blue Sable, Slate Sable Slate Merle possible
Tessa and Boston produce piebald, extreme white factor pups with EXCEPTIONAL temperaments however their genetics mean there is never a guarantee that any ‘colour’ will be produced as every possibility is rare in terms of genetics and as we saw with their first litter, puppies will and do change significantly in colour and will continue to develop through the first two years of their life. Sable is the base of the majority of their puppies and there are over 20 variations that can occur (and did, if you followed their first litter!).
Lily/Boston – Brown, Lilac and Tri’s of both variations possible. Again, these two can only produce Brown/Lilac however there are significant variations of that including varying degrees of intensity in both Brown and Lilac as well as tri points that develop over time.
We can never guarantee colours, nor can we specify when a female will go into heat. Heat cycles vary between 6-10 months. Genetics tell us the possibility of each mating however it is always up to mother nature.
You are always more than welcome to pass on a litter however, you’re deposit will always be passed on to the next upcoming litter (if there was a price change, that will be reflected in your new selection).
We will never tell you, you must take a dog however if you have your heart set on a certain colour please be prepared to wait, refunds are not given simply because a certain colour hasn’t been produced. We encourage you to focus on temperament and allow us to find the right match for your lifestyle.
Our Selection Process
Everyone is provided a selection number or the order of which they will select once a litter is on the ground and parents are confirmed.
Selection # does not mean you can just pick any puppy. We ask you to keep in mind at least 2 (Ideally 3) puppies that you are interested in and we will assist you in the selection process. We know our dogs, we know the temperaments a pairing will produce and it’s important that you focus on temperament over looks.
We typically allow for your first choice but it is very important that your puppies temperament matches your goals and needs for your lifestyle. We have been doing this a long time and have successfully placed over 70 puppies through 5 years with only 1 returning to us. That says something, we know what we doing for a successful match. We are very communicative through the entire process and we can often accommodate your first choice but it is not guaranteed. Our first priority is our puppies and matching them to the right forever home is critical to them and you – it is also critical to us, we wouldn’t be successful if our pups weren’t properly matched and you must trust that we do know the right matchups.
