We are Pat and Karla Reinhart. We live on a 38-acre piece of Heaven about 50 miles Northwest of Minneapolis / St. Paul, Minnesota, just outside of Zimmerman.
Pat had a long career as a Mainframe Programmer and retired early to build our home. He is the one that kept the day-to-day operation atEmerald Border Collies running smoothly. I joined Pat in retirement after 43 years of working at a Minneapolis bank, with the majority of that time as a Business Systems Consultant in Information Technology.
Before Border Collies, our family was involved in a variety of activities from church choir to an array of sports that included softball, volleyball, karate, swimming, and showing our Arabian horses. As our children grew older and moved on with their lives, we purchased our first Border Collie, RiverRun's BoAnna TDI CGC. And yes, we were hooked!
We are a small breeder of Border Collies with exceptional qualities. We are committed to breeding dogs with outstanding temperaments, sound structure, and good health. As a result of our commitment, we produce beautiful, smart, and healthy dogs that excel at anything, and everything! But above all else, they are the ultimate loving pet.
