Border Collie Collective

Welcome to Border Collie Collective! I’m Danelle, and these are my three co-pilots: Edna, Audrey, and Henry. You'll also see a lot of Geddy, the tough, happy chihuahua mix my son Jackson adopted in 2023. 

We live in the stunning Tongass National Forest in Southeast Alaska. 

I worked as a volunteer search and rescue handler for the Ketchikan Volunteer Rescue Squad K9 team for 30 years and have recently retired, so now am just exploring trails and trying a bit of agility for fun! My 11-year-old border collie Edna is my retired certified SAR partner, and her border collie housemates Audrey, 7, and Henry, 3, also have trained extensively in SAR.
