Our experience...wonderful!
It’s been nearly a year with our pup, Pickle, and our experience and the continued check-ins and support from Daylie has been wonderful! The interactions and willingness to discuss anything I had questions about was greatly appreciated. She even took and sent me videos when I requested some, as I was nervous about purchasing not only from a breeder but one that I had to travel a distance to (I reside in Richmond, VA). Meeting Daylie and her brother halfway to meet our new family member was a breeze and they were so kind. Pickle is such a social confident dog and has been a perfect companion to my older fearful pup, Juniper. He loves to be close and constantly literally leans against anyone who is near and gives us Collie love nibbles!

Great experience working with Shepherd Pals!  Quick response with any questions we had and very accommodating with our 7+ hour drive. Henry (Judd) has a wonderful temperament and is a great addition to our OES family. We highly recommend Shepherd Pals!

The 5-plus hour drive home could not have gone better.  Mieko snuggled in between my twins, sleeping
most of the way home. He loves to play with his mountain of toys, with his soccer ball being a favorite
when he’s outside and chasing the cat’s laser pointer inside. He is very chill, until he gets the zoomies
and runs around the yard like a crazy puppy to let off energy. He loves his daily walks with his “pack”
Roman (who tolerates him) and Oakley (a female puppy he enjoys playing with). My coworkers look
forward to his regular appearances on Zoom calls. Mieko enjoys going to my twin daughters’ tennis
practices/matches and will soon be introduced to his groomer! He had two hours of dog training last
weekend and quickly learned sit, stay, off and leave it! Let’s just hope he uses his smarts for good and
not evil! We love him, thank you for letting him join our family!

10/10 Recommend!

We have LOVED working with the Moore’s! They dealt with our chaos and plans changing with such grace! And we love our pups! We have two sweet sisters. I’m so very impressed with many things in their temperaments. I’d not hesitate in working with them again! 10/10 recommend.

Angus (Natus - Collie) is our 65 lb lap puppy. He instantly bonded with our family and other pets, and is a wonderful addition to our family. He came knowing basic commands and walks well on a leash. He is adjusting to suburban noise, but is already making headway. I would highly recommend getting a Collie from the Moore family!

Shepherd Pals is awesome!
Sage is a beautiful puppy inside and out. The Moores were great to answer all of our questions and keep in touch with us after we took our fur baby home. The quality of breeders makes such a huge difference, and Shepherd Pals is awesome!

​I would definitely recommend...
We had a wonderful experience purchasing a puppy! When we first got him, you could tell that he had been socialized very well with people. The all-around experience was great, and all of our questions were answered. I would definitely recommend Shepherd Pals to anyone who is looking for a well-rounded puppy.

Angus (Natus - 2/23/23) with new family!

We are so in love with our new family member, Benny (AKA Henrie the SheepaDoodle(! We purchased Benny from DeLane a month ago and the process couldn't have been any easier. DeLane has been there to answer all my questions any time of day! This Sheepadoodle has been one of the greatest additions! He is so smart and great with everyone (including all the kids). We have taken him on a few adventures with us and he does AMAZING!! I could go on and on forever! But I can't recommend this breeder enough!! Exceeds my expectations!

I purchased my fur baby Storm (AKA Jeffie the Sheepadoodle).  I am very happy with him and the communication with them during the process was extraordinarily great.
​I had to drive 3 hrs and it was so worth it for my healthy boy.

This family is great and the communication is wonderful! The puppies are well taken care of and so darn cute!! We are so happy with our precious boy and he is already turning in to a great LGD. He is also wonderful with our young children and very loving. Overall, a wonderful experience!

(Abel, the Spanitolinees, going home with his new family.

We couldn't be happier with Pepper, our 14-week-old Sheepadoodle. Just like our older Sheepadoodle, she has the perfect temperament for a family dog. She's friendly with everyone, from toddlers to grandmas and Bichons to Great Danes! Her stunning color and soft fur always draw attention, and she absolutely loves soaking up all the affection she receives. Best of all, she doesn't shed, is easy to train, and is wonderfully quiet. We were incredibly satisfied with the service from Shepherd Pals, and it was evident that the dog had been treated with love and care before coming home with us.

We love our SheepaDoodle puppy... 
Derby has such a great temperament for our family with young kids. He is so gentle and just wants to be loved on all the time. The whole process of finding and getting him was great. We were able to talk and text and all hours of the day to make sure this was the right choice for us...
We would highly recommend Shepherd Pals if you are interested in getting a puppy.

Very pleased...
We are very pleased with our Collie puppy from Shepherd Pals. Jemima is a beautiful, happy, healthy, well socialized puppy! She has a wonderful temperament and especially loves the grandkids.
It was a pleasure working with you Daylie.

I can't even find the words...
​We just acquired a beautiful 'SpaniToliNees' female pup from Shepherd Pals. They named her "Rosa" and we decided it was quite fitting for her, so we kept it in honor of her awesome breeders! I can't even find the words to describe how awesome she is. The moment she was in our vehicle with us, she started sharing her love with us! No anxiety at all, like she knew her destiny clearly! She LOVES my special needs daughter, Audrey!  Out of us all, I think Audrey is Rosa's most favorite. 
​My husband & I have successfully bred Great Pyrenees for 12yrs and I must say, Rosa is one of the most well adjusted pups I have ever known! She comes from excellent stock and it shows! She is absolutely STUNNING and we love her with all of our hearts. I don't know how anyone would find better breeder's than the Moore Family! When we feel we need another canine on our 40 acre farm, it will be from Shepherd Pals! Thank Your absolute professionalism Daylie & Dobson!
We'll stay in touch!

Seller made this purchase so easy and stress free, always replied to my emails. Jorga (aka Maizie Jayell - Sheepadoodle) is a healthy happy puppy who loves to snuggle. You will not be disappointed with the sellers!
​5 stars for sure!!!!

Extremely thrilled...
We are extremely thrilled with our Collie puppy from Shepard Pals. Daylie was very great with communication about the puppy and kept in contact as we drove over 4 hours to pick up the puppy for my dad. I highly recommend Shepard Pals and the Moore family. Very nice people and good breeders!!!

We are pleased...
We purchased two pups from Shepherd Pals. We tested to be sure they were non carriers for our breeding program, which they were.
Daylie had great communication with us. Our puppies are healthy, happy, and well socialized. We are pleased with both of them.
​Thank you!

Thank you so much Shepherd Pals...
I have a wonderful pup that I named Leia from this past litter. Her litter name was ‘Ana’. I love her so much. She has a great temperament and energy level for me, and hopefully will make a good multipurpose service dog for me in the future. The breeders couldn’t have been more kind and helpful with the entire process.
Thank you so much Shepherd Pals!

Sheepadoodle puppy "Millie Jane II" with Jeff and Nancy

We would like to share with any prospective puppy buyers that you can fully trust that any puppy or dog that you purchase from DeLane (and her sisters and brothers-the Moore family) will be in the best of health, with impeccable records. The care and concern that they all have for the many animals on their farm is outstanding! The information and preparation that they provide is very thorough and complete. They are an extremely loving family that we have known and loved for many years. Their willingness to answer questions (especially for new puppy buyers) was very helpful and encouraging! We highly recommend these wonderful breeders.
We love our Sheepadoodle - Millie Jane!

Thank you Shepherd Pals Team. I love Mr. George (Sheepadoodle) so much. He so funny and very smart. I loved how well you communicated with me on all the details before his arrival.

God bless you,

Collie pup Roxie (formerly Kelti) with Walker and Bill 

We had the best experience with this breeder!
Our Collie puppy Roxie (formerly Kelti) was so beautifully socialized when we got her which made basic training so easy. She is so calm and gentle. I’m hoping to do therapy work with her. Daylie was so easy to deal with and obviously cares deeply about where her pups go! I know I can call her any time with questions.
We are grateful!

Our experience has been great...
From the day we picked up our lovely Collie to now that he is 1 year old, our experience has been great. Daylie and family give a lot of attention and love to their dogs and the dogs grow up in a beautiful farm setting. I think this combination is the perfect recipe for the beautiful and healthy pup that we received.

Kelly with "Finnegan" Begin Again (formerly Addison- DOB:1/16/22)

 Everything about the process of getting Finnegan was so easy.
I was lucky enough to bring Finnegan (formerly Addison) home. Finnegan is settling in nicely. He is very intelligent, so sweet, and a little stubborn, which is all part of being a Collie. I will be signing us up for obedience classes because I think he and I will both benefit from it. He's really good with his puppy dog eyes!! Everything about the process of getting Finnegan was so easy. Daylie was great about communicating with me about the process and answering any questions or concerns that I might have about Finnegan or his parents. After a bad experience with the breeder for my parents' first Collie, it was nice to work with someone who truly cares about their dogs.
In the future if I get another Collie, Shepherd Pals will be the first people that I contact.

Thank you, Shepherd Pals, for our sweet Collie!
​Ailsa, a Collie from the second litter, has become a part of our family. She is so smart! We have had her since she was 8 weeks old and she was easily housebroken in no time. She is now 4 months old, and I just received the nicest compliment from a dog trainer who is teaching her puppy level one class: he said the breeders did a really nice job as she is so friendly and plays so well with the other puppies in the class. She is a sweetie! She is now learning to sit, she is learning the word down, and she knows the word yes for all the right things she does. She is my smart sweetie and I am so proud of her and so happy we found her! Thank you shepherd pals for our sweet Collie. We love her!

'Spanitolinees' pup "Wally" (formerly Cinco)

 Another great experience orchestrated by the Moore Family...
Hello Dobson and Moore Family! 
Wallace, formally Cinco, is our 2nd addition from this wonderful family. Prior to Wally we had obtained a female full Spanish Mastiff, Olivia, who is a step sibling to Wally; both were sired by the handsome Luis. Wallace is doing extremely well fitting into our lives. He remains curious of the cats and rabbit, although giving them their space, and is nonplussed by chickens and the horses. He enjoys his days "patrolling" our fence line but does like to cuddle up in his bed for nap time. Wallace is quickly learning vocal and hand commands.
​Many thanks to the Moore Family for their dedication to raising such healthy, happy, and well adjusted animals. God Bless!

We truly could not have asked for a better addition to our family...
Piper has been absolutely wonderful! She fit in so well from day 1, we couldn't have asked for a better puppy!  She is so sweet and attentive to us, but also has such a funny and playful personality. She has become quite a hit in our neighborhood, and with every person and dog she meets! She absolutely adores children as well. We truly could not have asked for a better addition to our family!

My whole camera roll is a Piper highlight reel now...enjoy a few of my latest favorites! 
Thank you SO much!

Thank you for giving us back our smiles... 
How nice to hear from you! Jack is getting big and getting into everything. He is exploring his farm and excited to move his sheep. He is not afraid of them or the horses. He seems to be very smart and training is going well. All my friends love Jack and say how cute and smart he is. I will send anyone that asks where we got him your way.
We love him and will send pictures as he grows up. Please feel free to use us as a reference.

She has been a great addition to our  household...
   Dyna is a wonderful character to have around the house. She is very playful and excitable. She has been a great addition to our now growing household. She is protective and loving when it comes to our little family. She loves children and to be outdoors whether that's with Waylon on the farm or just at home in our back yard.  She loves to play fetch and when she's all tuckered out, she likes to snuggle up on the couch with us at the end of an exciting day. Our only wish was that she could wash dishes and clean our house while we worked!"

Grace and Emma (formerly Birdie and Dally - 6/21/21 Collies) with their family

We are just in awe...
We truly couldn’t have imagined what our home would have been missing if we stuck to only adopting Grace! They (Grace and Emma) are great babysitters on walks!  They circle around the kids together to bring them back closer to us and then prance in confidence that they did their job. 
Emma is going to make a wonderful show dog! Grace is just SO laid back  about the kids. We were considering doing a therapy dog with her. She would do so so well in that environment, once we can go volunteer at the children’s hospital for her to visit them.
How caring and well you all are with breeding them (Rough Collies) with such wonderful, healthy genes!  We are just in awe at how well you’ve taken care of them before we got them, and how you keep up-to-date with them. We wish all breeders took the time to handle with as much care, love, informed decision, and knowledge as you all have done. We have such high standards for the next breeder when we start looking at males to potentially breed with Emma or Grace!

Our hearts are so filled!
It is going GREAT!!! She is so precious and such a ham! She has made herself right at home and the dogs have welcomed her right into the pack! Plus, I have the best company on the spare bed in my home office! I can’t complain working from home with these faces hanging out next to me! She is doing great with her “potty” training and she has slept through the night every night. She is still learning her name but is starting to look at us when we call her by Ophelia. We have mastered the sit command and have now moved onto paw/shake. She is just a dream come true and I don’t think a day has gone by where both of us look at each other and say, "this was fate" or that she was born and meant to be with us in our family. We are in absolute love with her and I think the photo library on our phones goes to show that. We have probably take over a thousand pictures or videos over the last 4 days between Kelly and myself!
 We are so grateful for you and your family and making this dream come true! Thank you sooo much again! Can’t wait to share more pictures as she grows up. 
Thank you again. Our hearts are so filled!"

We are very thrilled to have found Ruthie. We have been looking for a beautiful Sable & White purebred Collie for some time now.  Ruthie is beautiful, amazing, smart and so healthy!  She has adapted to her new family and her new furry friends and is doing great!  We have a nice big family and everyone loves her! I also appreciate how helpful you have been to answer my many questions. 
Thank you again!!"

We will be sending people your way...
 I was looking for a Collie for about 2 months.  Came across Shepherd Pals and found her.  Just what I had been looking for. I looked at the site and all the information on their page. I found it to be great for a new dog owner. I looked for the parents' genetic health so I would have a healthy puppy.  I saw Ellen, now "Gracie", and had to have her. She is so pretty to me and quick to learn things. The Moore Family was great to work with - always answered my e-mails in a timely manner.
  I got Ellen home and we named her "Gracie Lasey Gal" - "Gal" after her pretty mom.  She is 10 weeks old now and she is potty trained already.  She will go to the door to go outside to potty.  She is so cute playing with our other little dogs. She loves everyone she meets.
'Thank you' to the Moore Family for raising healthy & happy pups at Shepherd Pals!
We will be sending people your way. 
I just love her."
