Nine Peaks BORDER COLLIES
Allison and Bill Craig are the owners of a small, hands-on Border Collie breeding program nestled in the heart of Ellijay, Georgia, in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Since 2022, they have been dedicated to breeding strong, healthy, well-socialized herding and companion dogs with real farm experience.
Their dogs are raised on a 14-acre working dairy farm alongside Duroc pigs and chickens, making farm life a normal part of every puppy’s early development.
Each litter receives exceptional care, intentional socialization, and daily exposure to livestock, people, and varied environments.
Their goal is to send puppies home confident, healthy, and temperamentally sound—giving each one the best possible start in life, whether as a working partner or a family companion.
BREEDING FOR EXCELLENCE
At Nine Peaks Border Collies, we breed with purpose, heart, and deep respect for the dogs we love.
Every pairing is thoughtfully chosen to produce puppies known for steady temperaments, sharp intelligence, and the kind of sound minds that make living and working with a Border Collie truly special.
Each puppy is DNA tested, carefully raised in a nurturing environment, and given the best possible start in life. Before going home, our pups receive their first set of vaccinations, routine deworming, and a full health check with a certificate from our trusted veterinarian.
Our goal is not just to produce beautiful dogs, but confident, healthy companions who are ready to become a cherished part of your family.

Our Border Collie Family
Our Border Collies are first and foremost family. They live a full, happy farm life where they are deeply woven into our daily routines and responsibilities.
From helping move cattle and keeping a watchful eye over our livestock to riding along for chores and settling in at the end of the day, they are trusted coworkers as much as they are beloved companions.
These dogs thrive with purpose, partnership, and connection, and it shows in their steady temperaments, work ethic, and joyful personalities. Life on the farm isn’t just where they live—it’s who they are.
