Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our pups are well socialised with other dogs, people, horses, chickens and children. We also expose them to different surfaces, noises and foods.
Health
We feed a well balanced diet including premium kibble, dog meat, vegies and tuna. Our pups are wormed fortnightly from 2 weeks of age and receive their 1st vaccination and microchip.
Home environment
Our pups are raised in our home, we have part of our home converted to cater for the pups as they grow. We are happy to offer you a video call to show you the environment our pups are raised in. As they get older they enjoy exploring our large 1 acre house yard with plenty of room to run and explore.
Included with our puppies
- Blackhawk puppy pack - Puppy raising guide - Puppy training guide - 6 weeks free pet insurance - Litter toy/blanket to help them settle in their new home - 1st vaccination and microchip

Additional Tests
Morah Park Bordoodles conducts 12 additional tests available for the Bordoodle.
Genetic Test
Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), also known as ‘Choroidal Hypoplasia’ (CH), is a genetic disease affecting the retina. It varies in severity but can cause blindness. The gene responsible has been found in many Collie breeds, so breeders should provide an eye certificate, or blood test the parent dogs to check they are not carriers.
Genetic Test
This 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
Goniodysgenesis is a genetic cause of ‘glaucoma’, or increased pressure in the eye. Untreated glaucoma can result in eye pain and blindness. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this genetic cause of glaucoma.
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
Mucopolysaccharidosis is a genetic lysosomal storage disease that can cause various problems including stunted growth and bone deformities. There are a few different variants of this disease that have been identified in different breeds. For many breeds there are DNA tests available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying the condition.
Genetic Test
Myotonia Hereditaria/Congenita is a genetic disease that causes muscle problems resulting in a stiff gait and difficulty swallowing. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog might be carrying this condition.
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.
Genetic Test
Primary Lens Luxation (PLL) is a genetic cause of blindness found in dogs, particularly affecting terrier breeds. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
Genetic Test
Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) in dogs is a type of genetic eye disease causing deterioration of the retina and eventually, blindness. There are a variety of sub-types of PRA, which can occur in various breeds. There are various DNA tests available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
Genetic Test
Raine Syndrome, or Canine Dental Hypomineralisation, is a genetic disorder found in Border Collies, that causes their teeth to wear down abnormally fast. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
Genetic Test
Trapped Neutrophil Syndrome (TNS) is a genetic disease affecting Border Collies. It results in the dog’s white blood cells not being released from the bone marrow properly, meaning they cannot fight off infections. There is a DNA test available to identify whether a breeding dog is carrying this condition.
