About Us

We recently relocated from the Pacific Northwest to the St Louis, MO area!

We are a small kennel focusing on improving conformation while maintaining working ability. The border collie is a fantastic all around sport dog. We aim to produce dogs that can excel wherever they end up, whether that be as a pet, show, working, or sport home. Our dogs are raised in our home with our two cats.

Lauren grew up showing horses and livestock (meat goats, dairy goats, poultry, and rabbits) in 4-H and always wanted to show dogs in AKC. Lauren is an active member of the breed parent club, the Border Collie Society of America, where she previously served as the co-chair of the health committee.

Lauren has a B.S. in Biology and a Masters in Public Health with a Veterinary Emphasis. She has spent nearly a decade working in all aspects of veterinary medicine, ranging from kennels to reception to veterinary assisting to her most recent job as a practice manager.

Eric grew up in a small town with a yard full of basset hounds. While border collies are a very different style of dog, Eric has grown to love them. He also raised and showed pigs in 4-H and worked briefly on a cattle ranch. Eric has a B.S. in Neuroscience and recently finished his PhD in Neuroscience. He is our top puppy wrangler and is essential to our breeding and showing operation.
