“Over the past eight years, I’ve been fortunate enough to welcome three Maverick Collies into my family. As someone who has always loved Collies, I can say without a doubt that these three dogs are the most loving, confident, and outgoing I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing—and they are truly beautiful. April and Frank are extraordinary people who consistently choose the perfect puppy to seamlessly join our family each time. Their genuine care for their dogs and commitment to making this breed the best it can be shines through in everything they do. A dog from Maverick Collies is a choice you can always feel confident in.”

KRISTEY REED, DVM – Texas

“Our experience with Maverick Collies was top-notch! They have clearly put resources in to their facilities to ensure a great experience for their puppies. Our puppy was so well adjusted that we were able to take her on a flight home to Colorado and adjust her to our home with no issues whatsoever. We couldn’t ask for a better dog. I don’t know if this is typical but our puppy is picking up training very quickly. We are grateful not only for the positive experience but for the wonderful addition to our family.”

“Purchasing a Maverick Collie puppy was a wonderful experience, from the application to the matching process. Frank and April communicated frequent updates on the puppies with clear expectations for the timeline. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive to any questions that arose. I chose Maverick Collies because of their high-quality standards for the breed and their preservation efforts. They truly exceeded my expectations, and I now have the most beautiful and healthy puppy!”

“I’m so happy I contacted Maverick Collies. From the first email contact to the proud day I picked up my beautiful boy, Angus, Frank and April were wonderful! Communication was always prompt, informative, and courteous – no matter the question. I could not ask for better people. They love their dogs and know collies. They are sincere in their wishes for my success in raising this beautiful puppy and provided the tools and resources for me to do it!”

“I have bought collie puppies from several other breeders over the years, and Maverick Collies sets the gold standard. What makes them so special is that they want to ensure that their collies have the best opportunity to thrive and represent the breed well. This includes making sure the buyer will give the puppy a safe, nurturing environment by requiring a thorough application and qualified references. They have been readily available to answer any questions or concerns I’ve had with Bonny and have given me invaluable advice on collies, in general. They sent us home with complete medical records, pedigree information, food for transitioning, and lots of helpful resources. I love following Maverick Collies on Facebook because I get to see so many of their amazing collies and follow their progress as they win awards at dog shows all over the country. When the time comes for my next collie, they will be the first and only ones I call.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful blue merle puppy boy! We flew in and out of the San Antonio airport the same day to bring him home, and from the moment we met him, we could tell he was so well-adjusted. He’s been a perfect addition to our young family—smart, loving, and with an incredible temperament. We are so grateful for this wonderful puppy and couldn’t imagine our lives without him. Thank you for giving us such a perfect companion!”

“I want to take a quick moment to commend you and your Collies. I did quite a bit of research on Collie breeders before requesting a puppy application and your reputation is well earned. Your website is absolutely correct – choose the breeder first, not the puppy. I was so impressed with your facilities, puppy jungle gym, and your patience with my questions. The love and attention you invest are undeniable in rearing healthy, socialized puppies that truly advance the Collie breed.

Blaise is a happy, confident, and well-adjusted puppy that – I have no doubt – will grow into an exceptional dog. I’m lucky to have found you!”
