The Dog Pond Border Collies
About Us
Each litter is socialized utilizing Puppy Culture protocols.
This includes, but is not limited to:
- Early Neurological Stimulation during their first 16 days
- Noise desensitization throughout their time with me
- Exposure to a variety of enrichment experiences, including daily toy changes, different surfaces, varied food delivery, animated objects, piano mats, tummy mats for babies, and other age-appropriate activities
- Socialization with as many safe, appropriate animals and people as possible
- A puppy party around 6 weeks old with dog-savvy people who are new to the puppies
- Vehicle rides
- Crate desensitization
- Motion desensitization, since Border Collies can be very motion sensitive
- Indoor and outdoor activity
- Early communication work through the Communication Trinity
- And much more
We do not send fully trained puppies home, but we do our best to send home puppies who are confident, thoughtful, and ready to learn.
ABCA and AKC registered. Health tested clear by DNA for genetic markers relevant to the breed. OFA hip scores are available.
