Farms Collies
Welcome to our collie family, where intelligence, health, and beauty intertwine to bring joy and companionship.
We have been raising AKC rough Collies for the past 25 years, adding our first smooth just about 8 years ago. One of my sons and I had the awesome opportunity to be mentored by our long time friend, the late Carole Stanley of Afterhours Collies. It truly was a gift. She poured a wealth of information, wisdom, practical tips, and most of all, her infectious love of the breed into us.
I am forever grateful for her guidance and willingness to take us under her wing, pour into and AFFIRM us.

"I got a puppy from Lori last month. She has been the best puppy. She was housebroke within a week of bringing her home and slept all night in the crate the first night. She is just the sweetest puppy."

"I have had two incredible sweet and beautiful Collies from Lori. I couldn't have asked for more or better from the Collies or the Smith family. Lori has been in contact with me through the whole lives of my dogs. She is always wise and supportive with advice. My dogs have superb temperaments and can be trained to do anything. They are funny and sweet. Both of them love children. I couldn't love them more. Thank you Heritage Collies for such wonderful companions."

Raising Our Puppies
From the get go, our goals have been to raise Collie puppies with excellent health, beautiful conformation, intelligence, and wonderful temperaments, such as defines the breed. Our puppies are born and raised in our home, exposed to children, given lots of love and gentle play. We introduce them to age appropriate early neurological stimulation as guided by Puppy Culture. We are passionate about preparing our puppies for their new families and are committed to doing so. Our puppies go to their new families crate trained, with a great start on potty training, age appropriate vaccinations, dewormed on a regular basis, clear health exams. They see both a certified veterinary ophthalmologist and have a puppy “well check” by a certified DVM.
