RANCH HANDS

Since the 1960's we have raised Border Collies and used them in our operation on both cattle and sheep.  

These dogs are what we consider the mainstay of our program or they are better known as to us as our RANCH HANDS.

LUKE

Luke was a 13 year old male that had been our right hand man.  If we needed a job done or had the impossible task we went and got Luke and we got it done.  He was a super-tough all around cattle and sheep dog that never lacked courage.  Luke had plenty of brains and sired pups wanting to work at 3 and 4 months!  Winning his fair share of trials (sheep & cattle) Luke was in retirement at the ranch until November of 2005 when we had to put him down.  He is greatly missed but we look forward to his continued genetics in our program
