The Jeszacia Border Collies story

Hi 👋 I'm Beth

My love for Border Collies began in the late 1970s when I first discovered Footrot Flats, a comic that beautifully captured the intelligence and charm of the breed. That love only deepened over time, and in 1997, after years of research and connecting with experienced breeders, I welcomed my first pedigree Border Collies—Jess and Zac. They were the beginning of Jeszacia Border Collies, a name inspired by their own.

Over the past 28 years, I’ve dedicated myself to breeding exceptional Border Collies with outstanding temperament, health, and breed standards. Today, I continue to raise and care for my dogs on a breathtaking 200-acre property in Crediton, Eungella, where they have the freedom to roam, play, and enjoy a natural, relaxed lifestyle. My passion and experience have helped make Jeszacia Border Collies a trusted name among Border Collie lovers across Australia.

About Jeszacia Border Collies

At Jeszacia Border Collies, we focus on breeding calm, well-mannered, and healthy dogs. Our collies are not just pets—they're companions for life, bred with careful attention to temperament, health, and breed standards.

Our breeding dogs undergo full DNA testing to screen for genetic diseases, ensuring the health and longevity of our puppies. We also conduct PennHIP scoring on our younger breeding dogs to assess and maintain excellent hip health.

Life at Borderway Ridge
Our dogs are raised in a stress-free, enriching environment on our scenic farm, Borderway Ridge. With rolling green hills, running creeks, and open space to explore, our collies enjoy a tranquil and active lifestyle. While they have their own secure kennel areas for safety, they spend most of their time playing, socialising, and enjoying the farm life.

They are well-socialised with other animals including cats, horses, birds, and cattle—though our Border Collies are bred as companions, not as working dogs.
