Visit, ask for referrals (from previous buyers, from local rescue organizations, breed clubs and organizations etc.) and go meet their dogs on site.  Are the dogs well cared for?  Do they get enough physical and mental exercise?  Does the breeder do all the health checks?  How often do they produce puppies? Many litters per year should raise a warning flag (commercial breeding), as well as breeding females more than 1x per year. Commercial breeders generally are breeding for one thing only - profit.  They mass produce dogs with little or no thought to the puppies they are producing, except that they will earn them money.  If they ask you no questions other than, "When can you pick up your puppy / pay for him", look elsewhere.  Good breeders will ask you a LOT of questions, as they care where their pup ends up and the life it will have.  Don't be offended, and don't be shy to ask them a lot of questions too! If they can't / won't answer them, look elsewhere!  <A HREF="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html">C</A><A HREF="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html">lick HERE</A><A HREF="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bcrescue.org/breeder.html"> </A>for tips on choosing a good breeder. </div> <div> <IMG BORDER="0" SRC="Symb075c00b700c800000000.png" HEIGHT="13" WIDTH="24" ALIGN="bottom" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">Also note that <U>just because a breeder is listed on the CBCA breeder and trainer list, it does not mean they have been endorsed by the CBCA</U>!  Look for the descriptions under the listing "breeding, training" means the breeder also works their dogs at the Open level (sheepdog trials) and therefore probably breeds dogs that they would want to run themselves with lots of attention to working talent, health and temperament.

It may be a horse farm that happens to sell BC pups too on the side for the extra money...The breeders described with only "Breeding" generally means they produce pups but do not work them at all on livestock.  Be wary and double check that they are not simply a puppy mill! </div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B> <TABLE BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="784" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 1157 WIDTH="770"><div> <B>HOW COULD YOU?</B></div> <bR> <div> <I><B>In Memory of "Rambobino", a Border Collie who passed through 6 homes in 6 years, misunderstood and abused, it is no wonder he had the issues he did.  Thank you Sylvie de Lafontaine for trying to give this dog a home and finally for letting his spirit go in peace.</B></I></div> <bR> <div> <I>When I was a puppy, I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh. You called me your child, and despite a number of chewed shoes and a couple of murdered throw pillows, I became your best friend. Whenever I was "bad," you'd shake your finger at me and ask "How could you?" -- but then you'd relent and roll me over for a bellyrub.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>My housebreaking took a little longer than expected, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. I remember those nights of nuzzling you in bed and listening to your confidences and secret dreams, and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>We went for long walks and runs in the park, car rides, stops for ice cream (I only got the cone because "ice cream is bad for dogs" you said), and I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. I waited for you patiently, comforted you through heartbreaks and disappointments, never chided you about bad decisions, and romped with glee at your homecomings, and when you fell in love.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>She, now your wife, is not a "dog person" -- still I welcomed her into our home, tried to show her affection, and obeyed her. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement. I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them, too. Only she and you worried that I might hurt them, and I</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>spent most of my time banished to another room, or to a dog crate.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>Oh, how I wanted to love them, but I became a "prisoner of love." As they began to grow, I became their friend. They clung to my fur and pulled themselves up on wobbly legs, poked fingers in my eyes, investigated my ears, and gave me kisses on my nose. I loved everything about them and their touch -- because your touch was now so infrequent -- and I would've defended them with my life if need be. I would sneak into their beds and listen to their worries and secret dreams, and together we waited for the sound of your car in the driveway. There had been a time, when others asked you if you had a dog, that you produced a photo of me from your wallet and told them stories about me.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>These past few years, you just answered "yes" and changed the subject. I had gone from being "your dog" to "just a dog," and you resented every expenditure on my behalf. Now, you have a new career opportunity in another city, and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your "family," but there was a time when I was your only family.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the animal shelter. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said "I know you will find a good home for her." They shrugged and gave you a pained look. They understand the realities facing a middle-aged dog, even one with "papers." You had to pry your son's fingers loose from my collar as he screamed "No, Daddy! Please don't let them take my dog!" And I worried for him, and what lessons you had just taught him about friendship and loyalty, about love and responsibility, and about respect for all life.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>You gave me a good-bye pat on the head, avoided my eyes, and politely refused to take my collar and leash with you. You had a deadline to meet and now I have one, too. After you left, the two nice ladies said you probably knew about your upcoming move months ago and made no attempt to find me another good home. They shook their heads and asked "How could you?"</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>They are as attentive to us here in the shelter as their busy schedules allow. They feed us, of course, but I lost my appetite days ago. At first, whenever anyone passed my pen, I rushed to the front, hoping it was you that you had changed your mind -- that this was all a bad dream... or I hoped it would at least be someone who cared, anyone who might save me.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>When I realized I could not compete with the frolicking for attention of happy puppies, oblivious to their own fate, I retreated to a far corner and waited. I heard her footsteps as she came for me at the end of the day, and I padded along the aisle after her to a separate room. A blissfully quiet room. She placed me on the table and rubbed my ears, and told me not to worry. My heart pounded in anticipation of what was to come, but there was also a sense of relief. The prisoner of love had run out of days.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>As is my nature, I was more concerned about her. The burden which she bears weighs heavily on her, and I know that, the same way I knew your every mood. She gently placed a tourniquet around my foreleg as a tear ran down her cheek. I licked her hand in the same way I used to comfort you so many years ago. She expertly slid the hypodermic needle into my vein. As I felt the sting and the cool liquid coursing through my body, I lay down sleepily, looked into her kind eyes and murmured "How could you?"</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>Perhaps because she understood my dogspeak, she said "I'm so sorry." She hugged me, and hurriedly explained it was her job to make sure I went to a better place, where I wouldn't be ignored or abused or abandoned, or have to fend for myself -- a place of love and light so very different from this earthly place. And with my last bit of energy, I tried to convey to her with a thump of my tail that my "How could you?" was not directed at her.</I><I> </I></div> <div> <I>It was directed at you, My Beloved Master, I was thinking of you. I will think of you and wait for you forever. May everyone in your life continue to show you so much loyalty.</I><I> </I></div> <bR> <div> <B>~ © Copyright 2001 </B><FONT SIZE="1" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Jim Willis</U></B></FONT><B> ~</B> </div> <div> <B>tiergartenjim@yahoo.com</B></div> <bR> <div> A Note from the Author: If "How Could You?" brought tears to your eyes as you read it, as it did to mine as I wrote it, it is because it is the composite story of the millions of formerly "owned" pets who die each year in American and Canadian animal shelters. Please use this to help educate, on your websites, in newsletters, on animal shelter and vet office bulletin boards. Tell the public that the decision to add a pet to the family is an important one for life, that animals deserve our love and sensible care, that finding another appropriate home for your animal is your responsibility and any local humane society or animal welfare league can offer you good advice, and that all life is precious. Please do your part to stop the killing, and encourage all spay & neuter campaigns in order to prevent unwanted animals. Please pass this on to everyone, not to hurt them or make them sad, but it could save maybe, even one, unwanted pet. Remember...They love UNCONDITIONALLY. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>Border Collies seeking steady employment and active, loving homes in Eastern Ontario and Quebec (and Northeastern USA)</B></div> <div> <B>(UPDATED August 18, 2008)</B></div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 38 WIDTH="770"><div> <B>For Adoption: "Cody" - </B><FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#990000" FACE="Comic Sans MS" ><B>Adopted!</B></FONT></div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 378 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1a724c410.jpg" border=0 width="332" height="321" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="413"><div> <B>August 2008: Cody is doing splendidly in his trial placement - a farm where he gets to do real farm chores - moving the sheep around and helping out.  BC Rescue Ontario is very optimistic that this is Cody's Forever Home!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>HERDING POTENTIAL!</B></div> <div> <B>CODY:</B> A 2 yr old single breed border collie from registered working parents.

At about 33 lbs Cody is on</div> <div> the small side (people think he is much younger than he is), with a tri-color smooth coat.  He thinks he is a lap dog, and will wiggle his way up onto any couch or chair and then into your lap. Cody is easy going</div> <div> around the house, and settles nicely after some exercise.   He can get a bit over the top when too exited and sometimes some of his more inappropriate play behaviors can be misinterpreted by other dogs.  Cody has been introduced to stock and has potential to be a great sheepdog. He would make a great farm/chore dog or a novice dog for someone wanting to compete. He has beautiful balance and a great stop.

Jake gets along very well with other dogs and likes kids although can be rambunctious being a young BC so would best be placed in a home with older kids. He is housetrained, rides well in the car and he walks pretty well on a leash, although lots of off leash, outdoor exercise would be required to keep this high energy boy happy!

"Bronwynn"</B></div> <bR> <div> Bronwynn was pulled from a puppy mill at age 6 and is now enjoying the high life with Nancy Sutherland in Toronto! </div> <div> Here is what Nancy writes:</div> <bR> <div> "Can you believe that Bronwynn has been with me for almost a year( May 15 )? She has come such a long way. She is well known in my neighborhood & is somewhat of a socialite. She loves the kids, (you should see her with the soccer ball ) she has a group of dog friends that she looks for whenever we go out & to the park. She has learned to play with dog toys like frisbees by watching the other dogs & chases around just for the joy of running. Of course she always tries to keep everyone within the large circle that she keeps! </div> <bR> <div> Of course, she has her jobs to do as well Fiona. She works hard in the garden & has already dug a couple of holes where she thinks plants should go. As you will see, she assisted with the snow removal, of which we had quite a lot this winter. </div> <div> Bronwynn is also a celebrity at the local garden center. I took her there this winter to help her with her social skills. The staff love her & of course Bronwynn is the perfect guest. She never touches anything & moves with such care around all the plants & displays. You'll see her by the Christmas tree & w/ the penguin & snowman. </div> <bR> <div> I am so blessed with this lovely girl, Fiona. I can't believe that I doubted that she would be happy in Toronto. She doesn't like the noise of the street ( streetcar, trucks etc ), but then neither do I, so we easily remedy that . She loves just to even go out in the car & happily lies in the back seat , occasionally sitting up to look out the window to see what's outside & then goes back to sleep."</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="703" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 269 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="185251060.jpg" border=0 width="337" height="262" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="184b5a040.jpg" border=0 width="346" height="260" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 18 WIDTH="695"><div> Helping in the Garden in all seasons!</div> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 252 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="184d44f30.jpg" border=0 width="324" height="243" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="184f47f50.jpg" border=0 width="327" height="245" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 435 ><NOBR><div> <IMG SRC="1849259c0.jpg" border=0 width="549" height="412" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Sweet, sweet girl!</div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></div> <bR> <div> <I> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="763" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 146 ><NOBR><div> Check back often for available dogs in Eastern / Southern Quebec and Eastern Ontario. </div> <bR> <div> Or visit these pages: </div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.rosieanimaladoption.org/index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.rosieanimaladoption.org/index">http://www.rosieanimaladoption.org/index.htm</A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.spaestrie.qc.ca/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.spaestrie.qc.ca/">http://www.spaestrie.qc.ca/</A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.spadrummond.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.spadrummond.com">http://www.spadrummond.com</A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.spagranby.org/chien.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.spagranby.org/chien.htm">http://www.spagranby.org/chien.htm</A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.ovbcc.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.ovbcc.com">www.ovbcc.com</A> click on BC Rescue</div> <bR> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></I></div> <div> Rescue Organizations for Border Collies and Border Collie Crosses:</div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://www.NEBCR.org" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.NEBCR.org"><B>New England Border Collie Rescue </B></A><B> </B>Border Collies and BC Xs in New England States.  Dogs are fostered prior to adoption.  </div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.bordercollierescueont.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bordercollierescueont.com/"><B>Ontario Border Collie Rescue </B></A>Border Collies and BC Xs in Ontario.  Dogs are fostered prior to adoption.  </div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.bcrescueon.homestead.com/" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.bcrescueon.homestead.com/"><B>Southern Ontario Border Collie Rescue</B></A><B> </B>Border Collies and BC Xs in Ontario.  Dogs are fostered prior to adoption.  </div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.glenhighlandfarm.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.glenhighlandfarm.com"><B>Sweet Border Collie Rescue - Glen Highland Farm</B></A><B> </B>Border Collies and BC Xs available in the Northeastern USA.  Dogs are either fostered or live at the farm with lots of doggy social interaction prior to adoption.  </div> <div> <A HREF="http://www.petfinder.org" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.petfinder.org"><B>Petfinder </B></A>Huge National Database of unwanted dogs - both at shelters in the final countdown or in rescue organizations.  All breeds of dogs can be found here. </div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id21.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Blaze"><B><IMG SRC="19bbfad0.jpg" border=0 width="191" height="173" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></A></div> <div> <A HREF="id21.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Blaze"><B>Blaze</B></A><I><B>- a real gem from Glen Highland Farm - Sweet Border Collie Rescue, NY (No he is NOT up for adoption!)</B></I></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="mailto:creeksidefarm@sympatico.ca" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:creeksidefarm@sympatico.ca"><IMG SRC="04fa2530.png" border=0 width="162" height="83" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></A>     <A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Creekside Farm"><IMG SRC="050a2530.png" border=0 width="162" height="83" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></A>     </div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
