Skip the kennel. Unleash the adventure.

A gentle heads up: adventures are Border Collies only, a maximum of two

We love every breed, truly. But Border Collies are who we know inside out, and keeping our adventures Collie only is how we care for every Collie the way they deserve. To confirm your Collie, please add one clear photo, a head shot or full body, in the checklist below, or load it into your customer portal. We cannot wait to meet them.

Got a Collie mate? A maximum of two Collies per adventure, never more, so each one gets our trainers' full attention. Find a Collie friend and book them in together for the ultimate buddy day out.
