Bur Hill Border Collies



Welcome to Bur Hill Border Collies.

We are a small farmstead located in the Tillsonburg area of southern Ontario (30 minutes southeast of London). In addition to manufacturing an extensive line of natural remedies for people, pets and livestock, we also raise purebred Border Collies. Our niche is in providing pups that make wonderful family pets for active families. Our pups also do well in recreational sports and herding.

Our Girls


Cindy is a black and white, rough coated Border Collie with a wonderful temperament. She has a strong herding instinct and loves to work our geese. She is also extremely patient and gentle and absolutely adores children (we have 4 young children). She also enjoys babysitting other dog's puppies and is the self-imposed "auntie" of the young dogs in our kennel.





Lass is a tri-colour, rough coated Border Collie with a very pretty face. She loves playing with our children and riding in their wagon. Besides being a superb frisbee catcher, Lass enjoys playing house with our girls and also playing veterinary clinic where she happily has her teeth checked, a splint put on her leg and falls asleep after being put to bed in the "hospital".



Clare is a very athletic rough coated tri-colour Border Collie with an extremely bright, cheerful disposition. She loves everyone, and is very fond of children. She is incredibly muscular and is proving to be the fastest dog we own. She has a wonderful, amiable outlook on life. Her gentle nature and her biddable, affectionate temperament has made her a favourite on our property.



Katie, who we sometimes call Cindy Junior, because she looks so much like her mom, is a beautiful black and white rough coated border collie who is very bright and teachable. Her temperament is a perfect cross of her mother's liveliness and her father's laid back friendliness. She is very affectionate and has that soft disposition that we like so much. Like all our dogs, she loves children and enjoys playing their games. We often have to look twice to make sure it is her and not her mom.



Jess is a handsome red and white rough coated border collie from Roxy and has that terrific temperament that is so important to us. She is very alert and bright and has a lot of style. She is also very easy going and loves playing with our children. She is a favourite with our girls and their friends when they play "obedience school" with each child working with a dog.



Nellie is a very sleek and stylish rough coated border collie who has the great looks and moves of her mom Cindy. Besides being a real softy who loves affection and being walked by our children, Nellie is also a quick learner and likes to please.


Shannon is a very handsome red and white rough coated border collie out of Roxy and Roy. She has a wonderful easy going, biddable temperament and has been an incredibly easy dog to train. Shannon is a favourite of people who come to visit us and exemplifies the type of pup we produce. She has passed all her health clearances and has now entered our breeding program. We look forward to the quality of pups she will produce.



Our Boys



Roy is a wonderful red and white border collie which we imported from Angus county, Scotland. He comes from a working sheep farm near Forfar and has sheep herding experience. He also has a great off-switch and is happy to take it easy. Roy is a very handsome boy with a great temperament. He is extremely gentle and affectionate and loves our children. He is very easy going and has a relaxed outlook on life. He has the kind of temperament that will give us the family pet type of pups we have become known for. It is important for us that we produce border collies that are easy to live with and make great companions.

He is available for stud service for approved border collie bitches. Please see our stud page for more information and pictures.






Glen is a handsome black and white border collie we have brought over from England. He is very smart, has lots of spunk, is very outgoing and loves children. Although energetic and playful, he also has an excellent off switch and is very easy going. We are so pleased how similar in temperament he is to Roy. Glen gets along wonderfully with everyone including all other dogs and truly epitomizes a happy dog. He has passed his health clearances and is now being used in our breeding program.





Our Pups

 

Our puppies are vet checked, dewormed, micro-chipped, have first shots, and are well socialized in a family setting. They are sold on a spay/neuter contract and are registered with the Canadian Border Collie Association. Our puppies are 8 weeks old before we allow them to go to their new homes. This enables them to become well socialized with ourselves and our four children before they go to be with their new owners.

Temperament is one of the most important aspects of our dogs. They adore children, are very loving and gentle, and are wonderful family pets.

All of our breeding stock has been tested clear for hips and eyes (CERF).

Upcoming Litters:

Shannon and Glen are expecting a litter to be born in the first week of December 2009. The pups will be black and white with a possibility that some could be red and white. This is Glen's first litter so we will not know until the pups are born whether he carries red. We are now taking reservations for this litter.

Katie and Glen
are expecting a litter to be born in the second week of December 2009. The pups will be black and white. We are now taking reservations for this litter.


If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us .

Please note: our preferred method of initial contact is by email. We are careful where we place our pups. We ask that if you are interested in our pups, please tell us where you live, your age, some details about yourself and your living and work situation, how physically active you are, previous experience with dogs and how much time the pup will be left alone during the week.
