Freddie

​Here’s Freddie from Haven 23. He is the best dog ever and we adore him. At 14 weeks he’s quite the little dynamo, but a very friendly guy. Definitely not a lap dog though. He met our horses the other day and was not too phased at all. We think Kaylin did an excellent job in his breeding, and we really appreciate that! Thanks Kaylin. Gordon M

​ginger

Took Ginger (Colt X Haven 2023) yesterday for her shots and check up at vet. What a social butterfly, loves everyone and other dogs, great around kids. She is scheduled to be spayed in May. I am so impressed with your program, this is the most socialized puppy we have ever had. You guys do an amazing job setting up these pups for instant success ​

Chili

​We are forever grateful to Kaylin for entrusting us with Chili (fawn from Whisper & Colt) and for her dedication to breeding healthy and happy dogs. Chili has truly filled the void left behind by our sweet Abby and has brought so much joy and love into our lives. She is super active but also loves to lay on you and cuddle. We highly recommend Kaylin and her breeding program to anyone in search of a new furry family member. Thank you, Kaylin, for bringing Chili into our lives. Racheal D.

Charlie Brown

​Charlie Brown (Colt / Kindle 2020) aka fearless Charlie…the dog who isn’t afraid to try anything. He is my fourth Border Collie and just an incredible dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog! The first most important thing to know about Charlie Brown is his personality and temperament. He is super sensitive and caring, plays with any dog big or small, loves to greet people, loves to be praised (more than food), and wants nothing more than to be around us all the time. Charlie Brown is very respectful of our older dog, Harley, and is really great around everybody, including little two-year old’s. He is truly a gem and this is entirely due to super high-quality breeding and having great parents. This doesn’t just happen. It has to be bred into them and Kaylin has done an over-the-top amazing job of creating incredible Border Collies. We’ve had 10 dogs in our lifetime and you can really tell quality breeding when you see it.
Charlie Brown also has amazing coloring…it is truly unique. His coat is super silky with different colors of brown and red that make him really stand out. Everyone loves his coloring…he is one handsome dog.
He is also the most agile and athletic dog we have ever had. Since he isn’t afraid of anything, he can climb, and jump, and runs like the wind. He loves to go on hikes, trail walks, and play with other dogs. He can skid and roll and come back for more. He is incredibly durable and like all Border Collies, he has a job…chasing the ball. He lives to chase and catch the ball in mid-air. It is a thing of beauty.
We couldn’t be happier having a dog like Charlie Brown. He is truly a blessing to everyone in our family. Everyone loves him deeply and he has only been with us for 8 months so far. We are looking forward to many years of incredible memories being made with him by our side. Thank you, Kaylin, for letting him be part of our family.

Copper

​Here is Copper  (Schroeder) from Whisper x Colt ‘21. He is the best dog ever. So energetic and playful. He’s very loyal and obedient. He even snuggles when we watch movies.
Thank you Kaylin for raising/breeding such wonderful dogs. Lisa R.

Saku - Ryder X Halo March 2019 (Lucky)

​Kaylin, we can never thank you enough for Saku (Ryder - Halo "Lucky" March 2019 litter). 

When we signed up for another puppy from you, we didn't expect to win the lottery! He is the sweetest, goofiest, love bug who will never say no to a walk or car ride! He is everything we could ever hope for in a companion for my husband, you will rarely see one without the other.

My husband is narcoleptic and falls asleep at the drop of a hat. Saku has made it his job to always know when an episode is about to happen and never leaves Peter's side. He takes it very seriously and the bond they have is amazingly strong. 

 Saku LOVES to run more than anything and Fast CAT is his game! He does enjoy a good round of scentwork and just being the center of attention. He's quick to learn a new trick and loves booty scritches, herding his best doggie friends and ice cubes. He has the most beautiful wavy coat and he's always sticking his tongue out just like his mama! We knew our lives would change with the addition of another border collie, we didn't realize how much happiness, fun, smiles, love and snuggles it would bring along for the ride. Thank you for such an amazing boy that brings us nothing but happiness. 

​Millie
Grace X Ryder 2018

My name is Jennifer Cross and we have Millie from the Grace/Ryder 2018 litter. What a lucky day it was when I stumbled upon Cowgirls Faith Border Collies while doing a web search for local border collie breeders. I am a local dog trainer who loves border collies and Kaylin’s website immediately drew me in. I was further delighted to learn that she was responsible for breeding some of my favorite pups to come through my training classes, I was sold and happily put a deposit down. Several torturous months went by and the puppies were born, as they grew and developed I slowly got to know Kaylin and was privileged to be involved in some of the early work with the puppies. As I fell more and more in love with the puppies I also fell more and more in love with Kaylin and her passion, knowledge and commitment to the breed and to raising solid puppies and educating new owners. Finally it was time to bring Millie home and she has been everything we ever could have hoped for and more. She is smart, curious, loves everyone and is a cuddle bomb all wrapped up in a gorgeous little package. She is amazingly stable and outgoing and has just the right level of energy and drive, always up for adventure but not a constant energy bomb. She has been wonderful with my two other dogs and with our 10 year old son and his friends. We truly could not wish for a better dog and we are so grateful to Kaylin and all the early work she does to help mold these pups into incredible dogs!​

Tag
Faith X Ryder 2015

We thought we knew what we were getting ourselves into when Tag joined our family. We knew he'd be smart, have lots of energy and that we would love him.  What we didn't realize is how he would fill our house and hearts with his puppy zoomies, silly sleeping positions, doggie shenanigans and that huge Border smile. We can't imagine our family without him.  When I asked my husband what he loved the best about Tag. He said, "Everything." I can't agree more. (Faith X Ryder 2015)

Rush - Faith  Ryder 2011

 I can't believe this guy is 6 years old. He is the most loyal, calm, lovely border collie in the world (who can kick a... at party tricks to impress our friends! lol)  He's amazing with children and older people. He senses it and seriously too toes around like a service dog. It's fascinating to watch him.

Beau -
Taiylor X Ryder 2014

Here's our sweet Beau. It's so fitting that he was born on Valentine's Day. He is one of the most affectionate and loving dogs I've ever had. And he is so very happy. And smart! It takes approximately 30 seconds for him to learn something new. Our kids love working with him and involving him in their adventures. He loves everyone and everything. It's really fun to see life from his perspective. We are so grateful to have been blessed with him

Lance - Kindle x Ryder 2015

I'm not sure where to even begin on Lance! I've always known there was something special about Border Collies, and to see have that crazy BC magic in my life has been my greatest adventure! He's my best friend and has more personality than any dog (and some people!) I've ever met. He's such a sensitive soul, and intelligent! I always knew they were smart dogs, but hands on training with a Border Collie is something else! Beyond that, though, Lance is the best part of my life. If I'm sad, he'll lay down with me until I feel better. He's so aware of everything I do, I sometimes wonder if he knows me better than I know myself! Lance has changed my life infinitely for the better! Every day is full of smiles, snuggles, and a whole lot of love! My favorite little "Lance-ism" as I call them, is definitely how he rushes to my side to make sure I'm okay every time I sneeze. I'd be lost without my "Meant To Be" Lance!

Hope -
Kindle X Ryder 2015

My testimonial would have to be something along the lines of "How could you ever request we constrain a description of our love and admiration for Hope, who has become such a joyful and integral part of our family, to just a short paragraph? We could go on for pages...." LOL

Dana -
Faith X Ryder 2015

 This is Dana from (faith x Ryder 2015) I love my cowgirl faith border collie. She was a gift from my family and husband. I can't imagine my life without her. She comes with me to work and almost every where I go. Dana rides on my motorbike with me, she's my hiking buddy, and she is a part of the family. -Joy

Maximus - Kindle X Ryder 2015

Maximus has so much soul to him, can always tell that he has something going through his mind. We took him up to Franklin Falls today and had a blast!! He seemed so interested in everything and couldn't help but getting onto logs or getting close to the water. I love my boy and can't imagine my life without him now. Time for more hikes and more adventures next weekend!!!

Time has gone by so fast and I can only thank Kaylin for the amazing little guy we have now. Okay, maybe not little anymore, but thank you so much for the life-long companion!!!

Gibson
Faith X Ryder 2015
