A little about our Collies...

We have a very special pair of Rough Collies;
a male and a female named Flippy and Lassie.  
If you’re anything of a Lassie fan too, you can no doubt picture what we mean when we say that our Collie pair lives the classic “Lassie” life with us here on our farm in VA.  We live a good ways back from any main roads, and Flippy and Lassie can safely have free run of our 35 acres of farm. Or the whole wide world, as far as they know.  BUT.  Their favorite place EVER is the front porch, or anywhere they can stay nearest their people.
Now, that’s a real Collie for you, not just some made-up Hollywood fantasy! 
​See our about page to hear the sweet story of how we got started raising this lovable breed.

Individual pictures and details about our pair and their genetic health testing below!

Flippy

Lassie

Flippy's My Pal 
- our Rough Collie male -

Flippy has a lovable personality. He is a puppy-at-heart, and loves to play tug-of-war. He's very affectionate, and even gives kisses on command - well, to his favorite people anyway!  He will pick up one of his many toys strewn throughout the yard, and look at you with a pleading expression in his dark brown eyes that's hard to resist! He gets so excited when we have visitors on the farm, and can be counted on as the first to greet them in the driveway.  His favorite visitors are little people. He follows littles around everywhere, and tries to practice his herding instincts on them! 
Flippy has very good conformation for a Rough Collie, with a fairly big build. He is 65 pounds, and still may fill out some as he continues to mature. Flippy's pedigree includes several of the well-bred and well-known Van-M Collies.

Lassie's My Gal
- our Rough Collie female -

Miss Lassie lives up to her name, and is so much like the classic "Lassie" has a regal, reserved, and gentle temperament. She holds the expression of smartness in her eyes, and tries her best to understand human language. She has a tender and trainable heart. Lassie wears the air of being responsible for the well-being of the family and really, the whole farm! Even as a puppy, she was calm and 'wise beyond her years'.  Flippy is her sweetheart, and she takes good care of him, making sure he is always clean and happy.  While she is affectionate and gentle to her people, she's also wary of strangers and eager to let us know when we have visitors. But, she always warms up quickly, and becomes a very favorite here on the farm! 
Lassie has a more slight and athletic build, as is common for female Collies. She also weighs around 65 pounds.

The puppyhood days...
We enjoyed getting to raise Flippy and Lassie from pups, and have many fun memories of them growing here on the farm.
