“Spotlight” is a male rare white tri headed rough collie. He is being offered for limited AKC pet price. (More for full AKC). We are located near Valley City, North Dakota.
He was born in the house and raised with puppy culture. We have put lots of time into exposing him to all kinds of household noises including vacuums, mixer/blenders, music/TV, washing machines etc. He just went outside earlier this week to our “puppy house” where he is getting started on potty training and getting used to outdoor noises.
He is being exposed to all kinds of cats, chickens, and our horses. We have 6 adult collies on site that are helping with socializing him and teaching him manners.
This guy is a looker! His coat will be low maintenance. He will have medium length hair (like both of his parents) which means it will look like he just came from the groomers all the time.
His mother, Phoebe, is dual registered with SPSC and AKC. She comes from working lines. His father, Happy Dakota Gold, is AKC registered and has a couple of championships for agility in his pedigree. Both mom and dad, are completely genetically free of all health concerns tested for on the collie health panel. Including clear/non carrier for CEA, MDR1, CN, DMS, DM. We are members in good standing with the Collie Health Foundation.
All of his littermates are spoken for and this last little guy won’t last long! We offer ground shipping for $450 flat fee that covers about 2/3’s of the United States (see green area on map); $100 more for Florida. Our ground shipping company leaves ND closer to the last week of the month and makes its way in a big loop around the US. Again please see map—- green area is where they can cover delivery.
We are willing to help fly him to you (typically for the cost of your plane ticket +$150 for pup ticket, + $300 for vet/shots/gas.). I can meet you in Minneapolis; or (Fargo or Bismarck airports are local). If you choose to fly; typically it needs to be timed for that 8-9.5 week mark in order for him to fit in the carrier to fit under your planes seat in front of you. November 20 through December 2, is that window of time for coming to pick him up at the airport.
He is just loving life here and all learning new things every day! He will be up to date on shots before leaving the farm!

Frequently Asked Questions
About
Collie
Puppies
What are Collies known for?
Collies are every bit the calm, caring, affectionate family dogs that they’re portrayed to be. They need lots of love and are happy to return the favor. Full-grown, they typically weigh 50-75 pounds and stand 22-26 inches tall.
Will a Collie get along with my other pets?
Collies are generally excellent with children of all ages. Collies are great with children, and with socialization, they can get along with other pets too. These dogs may be suspicious of strangers or nip at your heels (especially as puppies), but they tend to grow out of those behaviors with age. They're very vocal and bark quite a lot.
How much exercise does a Collie need?
Collies need at least a good daily walk, a chance to run around, or active playtime each day. They’re sensitive to heat though, so if you live in a warmer climate, wait until the sun sets to let your Collie outdoors, and give them plenty of water when temperatures rise. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
How much grooming does a Collie need?
The Collie can have a rough, straight, long coat or a smooth, hard, flat coat. Both types have a soft undercoat and short, smooth hair on their head and legs. Collies may be tricolor, blue merle, white, or sable and white. Grooming-wise, this breed is moderate.
Where do Collies do best — city or country?
Collies are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. Collies love being around people, so they should live indoors with the family. They are fairly easy to train.
Puppy Buyer's FAQ
See Full Guide Here
Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
