My first Rough Collie!
I contacted AKC local Collie Clubs and eventually found a good, reputable breeder very close to home! Carol Karalis and Elyvis Maldonado happened to have a puppy available! His name is Castle Hill Cafe Con Leche "Yuki"! He's dam is Clarion Lalique of Castle Hill "Lola" and his sire is Milas Absolute Latin "Carlos". Yuki is a white factored, tri factored sable rough collie.
DOB: 6/5/2011
Yuki is very playful, friendly, likes kids, smart and loves his walks. I'll be blogging about my collie, adding pictures as he grows up & posting artwork.
Why I created this website.
I created this website because Rough Collies are one of my favorite breeds. After my dog Juno passed away (he was a Siberian Husky/Collie or Golden Retriever mix, a rescue), I really loved his traits & was hoping I can find a dog breed with similar temperament. We visited shelters but to no avail.
Juno was sweet natured, friendly, protective, non-aggressive, intelligent, sap, sensitive, loyal, gentle, alert, easy to train, polite other pets & people. He had such a wonderful personality & was always by my side. He lived over 17yrs!
I did a lot of research as the type of qualities I was looking for in a breed & I came across the Rough Collie. Their temperament sounded great & a good match for me. When I read that Rough Collies have generally good health, easy to train & lives about 12+ years, I knew this was the breed for me!
Please note: I am a fan of Rough Collies. I'm not an expert about the breed nor a vet, breeder, health expert or professional trainer.
