NOTE: 99% OF PEOPLE THAT COME TO ME FOR A DOG ARE LOOKING FOR ONE TO WORK THIER COWS , I HAVE FORMED MY GAURANTEE TO ACCOMODATE THIS FOCUS . I REALLY DO NOT MAKE ANY PROFIT FROM THE DOGS , THE GAURANTEE IS REALLY FOR THE PUPOSE OF KEEPING TRACK OF MY PUPS AND MONITORING MY BREEDING PROGRAM DOWN LINE TO KEEP QUALITY HIGH . MY BREEDING PROGRAM IS DESIGNED NOT TO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY , BUT SOLELY TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE KIND OF DOG I WANT TO TRAIN MYSELF....

CRBC PUPPY GUARANTEE;
THIS puppy guarantee has to do with with working instinct , general health , hip and eye problems. This covers first time cross' , with pups purchased for $400 or more and proven cross' , purchased for $500 or more . Discounted pups , free pups and pups sent with you with no papers are NOT covered .
The only Border collies that I breed will work CATTLE well , I work with any  buyer to get them a dog that suits their purpose .I may require that I pick the pup to make the guarantee valid. (People have brought their grankids out and picked the "cute " pup or the one that is marked like "their old dog" ect. and I know that is not the dog that will make them a hand , for instance.) A pup may end up being a sheep or goat dog and still work and but I will still help you get a dog that works cattle for you ( possibly trade you out for a dog the same age) . Raising and training a pup to maturity is also a factor. For instance , if you take a 6 month old out and get it stomped my moma cows and ruin it  or beat it for running horses - don't call me crying . Dogs need proper kenneling and training for the first 2 years.  BECAUSE OF THESE VARIABLES , dogs with problems must be returned to my farm or possibly videoed , for my veiwing between 10 and  16 MONTHS FROM BIRTH for the replacement guarantee to be in effect . 
Hip and eye trouble  needs a vet report for me , on these issues , I will replace the dog with the best dog I can up to 2 years , I want to know if something genetic is going on down line.
ANY ADULT , STARTED , OR TRAINED DOG ,purchased for any amount of money is transfered "as is "after a buyer sees the dog on stock . If CRBC bred the adult dog , the hip and eye  guarantee is transfered with the purchase of an ADULT dog . These are the conditional factors roughly speaking .

I SUPPORT BREEDING BORDER COLLIES FOR WHAT THEY ORIGINALLY CREATED FOR-  WORKING STOCK .

*BREED PROVEN WORKING DOGS TO WORKING PROVEN DOGS IF YOU WANT GOOD STOCK DOGS. COLOR , MARKINGS OR PEDIGREE WON'T BRING IN STOCK OR WIN A TRIAL.

TWO DOG TEAMS--- I AM SELECTING FOR AND GETTING READY TO START TRAINING TWO DOG TEAMS. I AM VERY DEPENDANT ON MY GOOD DOGS AND THAT WORRIES ME , IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY GOOD DOG, I AM OUT FOR A LONG WHILE. CATTLE GIVE MUCH MORE EASILY TO TWO DOGS ,BREAKING CATTLE TO DOGS IS MUCH EASIER (especially on the dogs) LESS STRESS AND FEWER FIGHTS ,LESS CHANCE OF A GOOD DOG or a profitable calf ,GETTING HURT. DOGS HAVE DIFFERENT STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESS' TWO DOGS CAN MAKE AN OPERATION GO MORE SMOOTHLY . WHEN TRAINED TOGETHER FROM THE START IT WORKS PRETTY GOOD , SAME THING ONLY DIFFERENT. TWICE THE DOG FOOD , 100 TIMES THE POWER.  I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON STEAMLINEING SOME TRAINING TECHNIQUES FOR A WHILE AND GETTING THE RIGHT DOGS . BUY YOUR PAIR NOW , GETTEM RAISED AND READY .

WE ARE STARTING ON A TRAINING VIDEO WE ARE HOPING TO RELEASE BEFORE DECEMBER. IT WILL SHOW WHELPING TRICKS - STARTING PUPS ON OBEDIANCE , STARTING 6-8 MONTH OLDS ON SHEEP -STARTING 1 YEAR OLDS ON CATTLE - STARTING PUPS TO WORK WITH HORSES AND IN TEAMS . WE WILL SHOW DIFFERENT TYPES OF PUPS AT DIFFERENT AGES AS THEY COME ALONG
