Thank you for visiting MacRae Sheepdogs, home of champion border collies.

Mission Statement:
Our principal goal is to breed, promote, train and sell world class dogs that can compete in novice all the way to the National, while being effective at any job on the farm or ranch. In addition to drive, heart and athleticism, we believe that good temperament is imperative and we look for these qualities in all of our dogs. We have a fundamental responsibility to educate the next generation of handlers on preserving the integrity of the Border Collie, as well as instructing the technical skill to empower handlers at the highest level.

Alba Cap and I won the 2012 US National on the large and challenging course in Klamath Falls, OR.
The sheep were different than years past with Suffolk prominent in the cross wool yearlings. Much the same as years past in Oregon, it was a very good test of the dogs.
It marked the 3rd generation of our bloodline to win the title in Klamath and 4th generation of National Champions.
