Raising collies is a family project for us, everyone pitches in. We have many fond family memories built around our children, grandchildren and collies. We breed our collies so others can experience the joy of owning loving pets as we have with our collies. With our breeding program, we breed for temperament, health, good eyes and beauty. We hope you enjoy your visit to our Web site. We have captured some of our family fun with our collies in our photos.  As you can see, collies are a passion of ours.

A little about Garlind Ridge Collies
We do lots of health testing on our collies
We test our breeding collies for the eye diseases of CEA and PRA, for the MDR1 drug sensitivity (which 70% of collies have) and for hip dysplasia. 
Health testing is always a work in progress
We also breed for wonderful temperaments and for gorgeous collies
Our collies live in our home, not in a kennel
Our 9 grandchlidren are great at socializing our puppies. Our collies and puppies love children!
Our collies do not support us, they are our hobby and passion
Gary is a full time dairy farmer, operating over 325 acres along with milking cows
Linda works Full time also besides her passion for the collies 
We are busy and if we didn't love our collies so much, we would not have puppies
Garlind Ridge collies are in 41 states, Canada, and Scotland
We breed when we have a waiting list wanting puppies from us,
not just to breed
