About Bordoodles
Bordoodles are a cross between Border Collies and Poodles. Bordoodles are the smartest of ALL the doodles! Not only are Border Collies and Poodles both INTELIGENT breeds, they are also ATHLETIC and are the breeds of choice in dog sports such as Dog Agility. Border Collies make outstanding herding dogs and Poodles are hunting dogs, both these jobs require a trainable dog that has desire to please. Border Collies and Poodles are FRIENDLY, loyal and good with children. Take all these great traits from both these breeds and you have the perfect pet dog, the Bordoodle!
The Smart Doodle
Due to having numerous inquiries from people desiring an intelligent companion, we began our journey to produce just such a dog. We are proud to present The Smart Doodle! …proven to be INTELLIGENT, ATHLETIC, and LOYAL! Our Bordoodles are sure to become your next best friend. Of course the low-shedding, mostly hypo-allergenic coats that some of them have are a bonus! All our dogs are DNA tested to insure our Smart Doodle puppies will be healthy!
About Us
Hello! We are Andrew and Sarah Bowman. We own and operate a ranch called Master’s Hand Training where we raise quality cattle and dogs. Our Border Collies and Poodle are well loved and receive lots of attention and training. We have carefully selected dogs that have proven themselves to be easy to train, athletic, friendly and genetically sound to produce the best possible puppies available! We have spent the last few years raising Border Collies to work on the ranch. They are excellent cattle dogs with outstanding INTELLIGENCE and ATHLETIC abilities. But since Border Collies are designed to herd, they NEED to herd, meaning that for people who want a pet instead of a herding dog, the Border Collie can become bored, leading to many problems. Therefore we would not place our Border Collie puppies in pet homes. The solution? The Smart Doodle!

Training
We highly recommend you get help training your new puppy! While these dogs are very SMART and easy to train, getting them started off right will save you a lot of frustration and allow you and your dog to enjoy each other to the fullest and have a great relationship! If possible, find a good trainer in your area who you can get lessons from. Another great option would be to have your puppy professionally trained BEFORE taking it home! We recommend you consider the turn-key puppy program that Golden Heart Canine offers. Becca is a wonderful certified trainer who we work closely with. She can lay a solid foundation with your puppy that will make the adjustment into your home a smooth and happy event!
