Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Puppies start functioning and interacting at 3 weeks of age as they have sight, hearing and some mobility. This is a crucial socialisation period and our puppies learn that they are dogs and start exploring life. It is important that puppies are kept with their mother and siblings during this time, so they can…
Health
Our puppies have a visit from our vet shortly after birth to ensure there are no immediate health issues. They will also have health tests during the first 8 weeks, including immunisation and microchipping. At all times, a visit to the vet is a positive experience, helping to develop their confidence.
Home environment
Our puppies are in a home environment with other animals and dedicated play area. They will move to the outdoor playground, where they can learn to move around and explore plus develop toileting skills to help them when they depart for their new home. Puppies can be rough and tumble, adventurous explorers and it is…
Included with our puppies
A puppy pack will be provided, including towel scented by their mother, a small feed and toy.
Health Tests
Core Tests(0/1)
Bordoodle Buddies conducts 0 out of 1 core health tests which RightPaw believe are most important to conduct for the Bordoodle.
Additional Tests
Bordoodle Buddies conducts 4 additional tests available for the Bordoodle.
Genetic TestThis a genetic cause of cobalamin malabsorption found in Border Collies. Affected dogs cannot absorb Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) from the gut and therefore experience a range of gastrointestinal disease. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
- Genetic Test
This is a disease affecting the spinal cord of older dogs, initially causing wobbliness and eventually hindlimb paralysis. It can affect a wide range of breeds. There is now a DNA test that can indicated if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.
- Genetic Test
The MDR-1 gene (Multi-drug Resistance Gene 1) is responsible for producing proteins that protect the brain from harmful chemicals. Some breeds have a mutation in this gene resulting in them being dangerously sensitive to certain chemicals and drugs. It is recommended to test these breeding dogs for the MDR-1 mutation, so they do not pass on the sensitivity to their puppies.
- Genetic Test
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) is a neurodegenerative disorder found in many breeds of dog. 7 varieties have been identified so far, affecting different breeds. There are DNA tests for each type, to identify whether a breeding dog might be carrying this condition.

About the Breeder
A little about us
I have been breeding border collie's for 5 years with a passion for the breed, which has now expanded to include the bordoodle. Our purpose is to provide quality pets for good homes. Our puppies have homes across Australia and should travel be required, they are well prepared for their journey.
Why we got involved in breeding
My breeding commenced when family and friends fell in love with our border collies, who have been bred to suit an Aussie home.
Our special touch
Our puppies are part of the family and take their first 8 weeks in a family environment.
