Stunning, Happy, Quality pups from working parents. "ASTRA" border collie sheepdogs - We know our lines inside out, with some of our lines going back with us for over 25 years. We breed for herding ability, temperament, character, train-ability, agility and an "off switch". This is what we like ourselves in the pups that we hold back for training to become qualified sheepdogs, which once trained, are then sold to farmers and sheepdog trials competitors throughout the world.
