Top of the Hill Breeding Kennels
Our Philosophy
We take great pride in our ethical approach to the breeding of our focus breeds. We have ensured that our in-depth knowledge of our breeds allows us to raise, train and become knowledgeable about health traits, temperament and behaviour.
Our Practice
Through our years of family experience we have developed an approach which ensures a high quality lifestyle for all our dogs and a thorough personal selection process for our clients.
We use only our own dogs for breeding, to ensure consistent genetic and health backgrounds.
Dogs are only bred when completely healthy and time lines are in line with Dog and Cat management best practices.
All aspects of the breeding process are supervised and regular vet checks and scans are made available for females during pregnancy.
Our specially designed indoor whelping kennels provide heating, cooling and 24hr supervision for delivery and feeding.
Puppies are carefully matched with potential owners and visits to meet, select and bond with puppies is considered essential.
Puppies are carefully socialised and vet checked before moving to their new home, and ongoing advice is available to their new owners.
We work diligently to ensure ethical practices and a professional standards for all a dogs and their new owners.

Our Background
Our background with Border Collies started many years ago with our beloved family pet BC's.
More recently running sheep on our property we began training and using our newest BC's to work with the sheep.
Now we have moved to breeding with our hand picked BC"s to share our experience and love of this highly intelligent breed
Our journey has now taken a new path as we were introduced to the loyal and fun-loving Golden Retriever. On our rural property our beautiful Goldies, Holly, Hazel and Harrison have enjoyed the chance to run, dig and grow up together happy and healthy. We were excited to introduce them to our breeding program.
