Welcome on the site of the Collies of the Holy Mountain.
I wish you a pleasant visit of my site
where I tried to express through words and photos all my
love for this beautiful breed …
At the “Of the Holy Mountain” kennel we
select and breed rough collies for correct type,
temperament and health! We have the aim and ambition to
breed »True Collies” as close to the FCI standard as
possible.
A true collie should »appear as a dog of great beauty,
standing with impassive dignity, with no part out of
proportion to whole. Physical structure on lines of
strength and activity, free from cloddiness and with no
trace of coarseness. His temperament should be friendly
with no trace of nervousness or aggressiveness.
We breed all three colors: sable white, tricolor and
blue merle.

Our breeding
strives to
breed the type of dog that
is as close as possible to the FCI
standard, because every collie should
still be physically and
mentally capable to perform
the work he was bred for that is sheep herding!


Most our
dogs are
imported from abroad
(France, United Kingdom,
Poland, Hungary), as we give a
great importance to the origins and health status of our
dogs.


We test our dogs for
genetic diseases
for which
genetic tests were developed.
When selecting our breeding
combinations, we give priority to type,
health and balanced temperament. All our dogs must
pass the
Test
of Sheepdog Natural Aptitudes as
it was proven
that dogs with a strong herding instinct have a more
balanced and sound temperament and are therefore better
for breeding.


We participate to a
lot of show throughout Europe …



we train agility,
obedience…


But what is
essential
for us is that our dogs and
their owners are happy and
satisfied together.
