This questionnaire serves the purpose of helping us become better acquainted with the people inquiring about our Collies. It serves to present us with a more complete picture of what you are looking for in a dog and to help us match you, as a potential buyer, with a dog that will ultimately turn out to be what you are looking for. This questionnaire in no way constitutes a contract on our part that there will be an collie puppy available for you, nor do your responses serve as the sole determinant of whether or not a collie puppy will be offered.
Also there are no right or wrong answers!
Although we will always keep in mind the color preference of our puppy buyers we DO NOT place our pups in homes based solely on color choice. Puppies are placed based on a wide variety of things including temperament and suitability. If you are interested in a puppy from an upcoming litter we recommend you complete our questionnaire and speak with us (via phone, e-mail or in person) after that. When we have a litter planned we will notify you and we will request a deposit from people interested in a pup. A deposit ensures ONLY that you will be considered as a prospective home and we reserve the right to choose not to place a puppy in a prospective home at any time or for any reason. Our first consideration is the safety and well-being of our puppies, from the day they are conceived until the day (hopefully long in the future) when they pass on.

New litters!
7 beautiful puppies were born Nov 5, 2025. We have 5 girls (one tri, one blue merle and 3 sable merles
and 2 boys (1 blue merle and 1 tri factored sable).
There are both rough and smooth in this litter. It's hard to tell at birth with the blues but the tri girl is smooth and I believe 2 of the sable merles girls are also smooth. The tri factored sable male is rough and 1 of the sable merle girls is rough.
The blues could be either! At the time of this announcement they are only 3 days old so we can't tell yet with them.
The pedigree of this litter combines some of the best dogs in collie history.
Show and pet homes and perhaps guardian homes to be considered.
Parents of this litter are Ch. Tamaron's Some Beach Somewhere (Zenon) and Ch. Tamaron's Valkyrie (Valkyrie)

Due November 14th, 2025!
A litter of all rough puppies, all colors except white are possible. Dad (Adam) is a tri and mom (Ariana) is a sable merle
so another rainbow litter is possible.
This pedigree doubles up on the incredible
Kasen, 2023 CCA Best of Breed, AM GCHG Southland Aurealis Island Nights ROM, ROMP as he is the sire of both Adam
and Ariana but with unrelated moms.
Dad is GCH. PrairiePine Tamaron's Genesis (Adam) and mom is Ch. Tamaron's Islands in the Stream (Ariana).
Adam came to us through the generosity of his breeders Val Marshall (VanIsle) and Susan Minard (PriariePine).
I bought him with the purpose of one day doing this breeding and it has at last come to fruition!
Ariana is the result of many generations of careful breeding done to create the most beautiful and sound collies, both mentally and physically. We are proud to say she is 5 generations of Tamaron breeding on her mom's side.
If you are looking for your next show or performance dog or just a couch snuggler, we will have one for you!
