The links below are to websites that work in the canine world. Dog Associations. Stock dog and sheepdog Associations and groups. Even sheep and agricultural websites. Not necessarily all collie or rescue orientated.
We do not encourage the taking on of a Border Collie puppy as a pet, so there are no links to websites specifically set up to sell you a puppy - unless you want a stock dog to herd.
