    The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, compassionate people who cleared love the dogs in their care. They spent plenty of time with us, getting to know us, finding out what we required from and what we could offer a dog. They then introduced us to Shep & once we were all happy we took him out round the grounds on our own so we could get to know him & him us. When we brought him back they talked us though his issues & on-going training needs so we knew exactly what we were letting ourselves in for. They are also happy to advise adoptors on the phone if any problems occur. We were able to purchase everything we didn't have for him and were provided with a free bag of the food he was used to. I can rate this rescue centre highly enough they strive hard to ensure their dogs go to the correct lifelong homes. Well done & thank you Border Collie Trust.

    A wonderful, clean environment for the dogs and a great place to take the dogs for a walk to get to know them. The people were very understanding and tried hard to find the right dog for us, which we did. They went through his history, personality and needs. We were very aware of what we were adopting and the needs of him due to his past. The check up phone call was great and was amazing to tell them how much he has changed since adopting him. Would recommend this rescue centre for anyone looking for a border collie.

    Professionally run centre with staff who are knowledgeable about the breed. Permitted as much time as we needed to spend with our dog of choice and staff were very objective in their advice - there was no "hard sell" or pressure to take a dog. The level of support and advice we have received since taking her home has been amazing - it is fantastic to just be able to pick up the phone and be reassured that we are doing the right thing or to be told to try something new. Time is the biggest healer for some of these dogs and since getting our girl home at Easter, we have gone through every emotion from thinking we made the wrong decision to sheer joy now that she is becoming more confident.
    If only all potential BC owners had this type of advice and support before they brought a dog into their lives there would be far fewer dogs needing new homes.
