We are a small kennel in the outer Launceston area, where our dogs are a part of the our family. They really enjoy lots cuddles and being around us. We love our Border Collies because they are very intelligent and loyal family dogs. Breeding healthy dogs with good temperaments is our priority. All of our bitches and the stud dogs I use have been DNA Tested (to current DNA Standards). They have also been hip and elbow scored too. All puppies are fully wormed, vaccinated, micro chipped, vet checked and registered with the ANKC. All our puppies are raised and socialised in a family environment around children. Finding great homes and helping new owners is important to us so our puppies can become delightful family pets. Our Border Collies come in a range of colours being, blue merle, tri and black and white.

An Important Update from Flyndream After 20 years of experience with Border Collies and receiving our kennel prefix 8 years ago We are no longer breeding Border Collies. This was a difficult decision, but we believe it's the right path for us . Unfortunately, we observed a genetic immune issue emerging in our bloodline. This discovery required us to prioritise the health and well-being of future generations of Border Collies, leading us to retire all our breeding dogs. Flyndream's Legacy While we're not breeding , we're proud of the legacy we've built. We've always prioritised quality in our breeding program. This meant: DNA testing: All our dogs were tested with the latest available options. Health screening: Hips and elbows were x-rayed and scored before breeding. Conformation and temperament: We focused on breeding dogs that met the breed standard, with excellent temperaments. Our Experience I have been fortunate to learn from experienced breeders and gain a deep understanding of the breed standard. Over nearly a decade, we've worked with Border Collies not just as breeders & showing but also training our dogs in obedience, tricks, and even dog sledding Our Commitment Continues While breeding has concluded, our love for Border Collies remains strong. We stand behind the principles we applied in raising our puppies, which included the Puppy Culture program methods. This update reflects a change in direction, but not in our passion with these incredible dogs.

My love of passion for Border Collies started back in1979 while in Europe visiting my auntie Betty whom owned five beautiful elegant loving nature Border Collies. First and foremost our dogs are very much valued members of our family. Our emphasis is on breeding for soundness, conformation and temperament for companion & loyal friends across all disciplines. Our dogs have all been DNA and hip/elbow tested as their health comes first. Our dogs are excelling very well in all areas of dogs sports. We train regularly in all disciplines at home and exhibit in competition rings. Trialling on most weekends in Hobart. Launceston and Ulverstone.
