Bonnie Brae ColliesSedalia, Colorado
Bonnie Brae Collies is dedicated to preserving and promoting the old-fashioned Scottish Collie, a type that predates the modern show collie in both form and function. Our dogs are registered with the Scottish Collie Preservation Society (SCPS) and/or the Old Time Scotch Collie Association (OTSCA).
Our goal is straightforward: produce healthy, intelligent family dogs with the natural working instincts and gentle temperament the breed has been known for throughout history. We prioritize health testing, sound structure, and an exceptional disposition in every breeding decision.
Each litter is raised in our home, surrounded by children, daily activity, and loving interaction from day one. Our puppies are well-socialized, confident, and ready to bond deeply with their new families.
Nothing means more to us than hearing how our puppies are thriving in their new homes.
I don't think we've ever had a dog this intelligent. It's astounding.
Rocky's familyThe work you did shows!!! They met new people yesterday and went up and sat in front of them ready for petting. They are confident, curious, and adventurous - right from the moment they came home.
Banjo & Dolly's familiesMac is absolutely delightful. Formidable, dependable, loves family including very young and not-so-young grandchildren. He is protective of the property and wary of strangers but introduces well to new folks and is exuberant about known friends and family.
Mac's familyThe old-fashioned collie is a distinct type: more moderate in head, more athletic in body, and more versatile in temperament than today's show lines.
Devoted, calm, and intuitive with people of all ages. Old-fashioned collies are known for their sensitivity and remarkable bond with their families.
We health-test our breeding dogs and select for longevity, vitality, and freedom from hereditary conditions common in many modern collie lines.
Quick to learn, eager to please, and highly trainable without the high-drive that can be challenging in some herding breeds.
Moderate, well-balanced conformation designed for endurance and agility, built to work, not just to pose.
Old-fashioned collies thrive as full family members. They love children, get along with other animals, and adapt beautifully to home life.
Representing the collie before show-ring selection changed the breed, these dogs maintain the appearance and working qualities of their Scottish ancestors.

Our most recent litter of 7 puppies, born August 18, are all in their new homes. We are currently planning our next litter for Summer 2026, Road's last litter before retirement.
