ROHDE COLLIES
Beyond Expectations
ABOUT US
Rohde Collies is dedicated to preserving the beauty, intelligence, and spirit of the Collie breed. Our breeding program produces both rough and smooth Collies that exemplify correct type, health, and temperament. Rooted in Collie Club of America National-winning bloodlines, we aim to produce dogs that are competitive in the show ring and beloved as family companions.
Every breeding is planned with intentionality. We strive to produce Collies that possess physical and mental soundness, outstanding virtues, and the enduring traits that define true Collie character. Each litter reflects a long-term vision grounded in the Collie Standard and shaped by the influence of revered mentors.
Rohde Collies is not a large-scale operation; we breed on a limited basis to maintain the highest standards. Our approach combines thoughtful linebreeding with the occasional judicious outcross to preserve consistency while strengthening the gene pool. For us, breeding is not just about producing dogs—it is about preserving a legacy of excellence and purpose.
We are proud to be recognized as an AKC Breeder of Merit, a Bred With Heart member, and an AKC Judge for Collies and All-Breed Junior Showmanship. Beyond our breeding program, we value the deep relationships we’ve cultivated over the years—with our dogs, their families, and our colleagues.
