Introducing ourselves

About us

 Dogs and animals have been part of our lives for as long as I can remember.

My dream of getting a Border Collie started back in 2008 when I first began doing agility with my poodle. I fell in love with Border Collies and their personality instantly, but I was still far too young for such a dog. So, I just admired them from afar and tried to learn as much about the breed as possible 

In 2012, a little chihuahua named Nelinka joined our family quite unexpectedly. She was a tiny bundle of nerves, terrified of everyone and everything. I started training with her, hoping she would become a future agility dog. It was an incredibly challenging journey. She was panicking around strangers, and her fear of other dogs only worsened after she was attacked by a german shepherd before she was even a year old. She was terrified of loud noises, sudden movements, and so much more. We attended IGP obedience classes just to get her used to the presence of other dogs and to working around them. But whenever we tried agility, she would run away from the course in fear and refuse to collaborate. Many trainers told me it was pointless and that we would only frustrate ourselves. Fortunately, we met a trainer named Radek, and during a summer camp in 2016, we finally managed to show Nelinka that training could be fun. Slowly but surely, she started to enjoy it.

Then, in May 2017, my mom said the words I had been waiting for: "Since you've wanted a border collie for so long, and after everything you've accomplished with Nelinka, why don't you look for a litter you like?" Overjoyed, I began searching for the right match. Unfortunately, around that time, I was noticing more and more extremely sensitive border collies that couldn't handle any pressure, as well as dogs that were nipping or even reacting aggressively toward other dogs. I was terrified of choosing a puppy like that.  

In the end, I was completely captivated by an external C-litter from the Segibo kennel and a photo of a tiny, few-days-old puppy named Sunnynka. I immediately messaged Terka to see if, by any chance, a female puppy was still available. I was incredibly lucky—someone had just canceled their reservation for Sunnynka, and Terka decided to trust me with her.

Sunnynka turned out to be exactly the Border Collie I had dreamed of—incredibly well-balanced, confident, yet so kind and gentle to every living creature. Later on, when my mom was looking for a Border Collie of her own and a planned litter abroad fell through, we tried to find a litter that carried at least a bit of Sunnynka's pedigree, hoping to find a puppy with a similar wonderful character, even if only distantly related.

Dárlinka cames into our lives completely out of the blue. To be honest, after Sunnynka, I had planned to look for a puppy with a slightly more sport-oriented pedigree and an athletic build for future competitions. Well, at least the second part came true! In 2022, photos of Sunnynka's half-siblings—by the same father—caught my eye. The puppies were born almost exactly five years to the day after Sunnynka, sharing the same sire and out of a dam named Čikinka, whom I had been following and admiring for a while. And the bonus? There was a free female puppy with a red collar. I gathered my courage and messaged Lenka to see if she was still available. Before we knew it, we were on our way to visit Dárlinka. We went to see her one more time, and about a month after that first message, we were bringing her home.

It was probably the best unexpected decision we could have ever made. We brought home a little ball of energy with a constantly wagging tail, but one that was incredibly attentive. From day one, she naturally stayed close to us. She absolutely loves people, dogs, and children, and she remains completely unfazed by new environments, loud noises, traffic, or handling. She became the perfect partner for any adventure. She eventually grew out of that little ball of fluff and, although she is completely calm in everyday life, the moment it is time to train, she gives it 100%, no matter the task.  

It was precisely because of her wonderful temperament, movement, and structure that I decided she should be part of a breeding program, and that the time had come for me to establish my own kennel.

My goal is to raise healthy, well-balanced puppies with a strong willingness to work and cooperate with their owners—puppies that will be lifelong companions and true partners, both in daily life and in sports.
