 "I am an agility instructor from the San Diego area. I couldn't be more thrilled with the Double J dogs. As a group they are smart, biddable, talented, very fast and have wonderful temperaments. My girl, Groove, is from the 3rd Rocky x Betsy and she is an amazing dog in every way. I couldn't be more pleased with her. I also have facilitated my students getting 4 other full sibs from various Rocky x  Betsy litters. Each dog is consistently phenomenal. Speed, agility, work  ethic, wonderful temperaments...... I have been very impressed with  these dogs." ~ Stacy

She will bite on command if  needed.  I would recommend any puppies that the Johnsons have bred."  ~  Kathy

 "Thank you for breeding such a wondering dog. I don't  even known where to begin. Trix has a solid temperament, a heart of gold  and is always so happy :)  On the agility field Trix is so easy to work  with. She learns things so quick, is very athletic, responsive, likes  food and toy, is driven but not "over the top crazy" and has so much  natural self control. She will lay down while the other dogs are working  and will pop up when it's her turn to run!! Trix has had a fantastic  first competition season and at the age of only 2 she has qualified to  represent Canada at the World Agility Open. I am so proud of her. Off  the agility field Trix is a lazy house dog! Talk about an off switch!  She is happy to snooze in bed all day, cuddle on the couch or have her  belly rubbed. She is so friendly towards people and other dogs; I can  take her absolutely anywhere. Thank you again, my family and I love Trix  so much." ~ Jessica

 "Summit has been the perfect dog from the day I brought  him home.  The first chance I got to interact with him was in the  airport parking lot after a 3 hour flight home to Canada, he launched  himself out of the kennel and began tugging wildly on his leash as the  planes were flying above.  It has been that easy from day one, the  Johnson's must have done a wonderful job socializing the pups as Summit  is yet to meet a person or dog that he does not love.  He is extremely  focused and driven even from a pup yet he is so level headed when away  from work.  He goes everywhere with me, flying across the country or  driving to work and back everyday, he is perfectly content to sit beside  me and wait for whatever comes next.  Summit is a joy to be around and  way too much fun to work with, I can't imagine life without him.  And  did I mention he is on of the best looking dogs out there?!?!" ~ Justine

 "When I decided to buy a stud dog prospect from the USA, I  was looking for a solid, full cattle-bloodline dog. I was not looking  for a litter from champion show dogs, rather I was looking for a litter  from a farm working sire and dam. When I found the Johnson family and  looked at the lines from the sire and dam's pedigrees, I said, "

When I found the Johnson family and  looked at the lines from the sire and dam's pedigrees, I said, "This is  what I'm looking for," and I made contact with Angie Johnson. Now I am here  with one of the greatest dogs I have ever seen in my life. The  socializing process done by the Johnson's was great. Roy has an  excellent temperament, excellent bones, and a fantastic cow sense. I'm  sure Roy will be one of the greatest border collie sire's in Brazil."

 "I manage a commercial cow/calf operation and own High  Desert Cattle Company, which is a purebred and commercial cow/calf  operation.  We have always used dogs as a means of working and handling  our livestock.  We run in big mountain country and arid high desert in  Eastern Oregon.  In 2007 I purchased Double J Rossi from Double J Border  Collies.  I selected this puppy simply for the fact that he was  red/white, short haired, and appeared that he was going to be prick  eared.  I've had lots of dogs over the years, most of which were border  collie influenced.  I've never had one like "Ross".  This dog wanted to  work from the day I picked him up.  As he matured and grew I was shocked  at how big he got.  Ross is a very big border collie, with a huge  handsome head.  He's very powerful jawed.  As I started to work Ross I  wondered if that would translate to power when he got ahold of a cow.   Wow!  Ross bites hard.  On baby calves he only does the minimum  necessary to make them see it his way.  However, on yearlings and  bigger stuff he brings the heat.  Ross will be four this year, and he is  a very broke dog.  He is absolutely a pleasure to be around on and off  the job.  My three young children love on him all the time and he  reciprocates willingly.  Ross has as much feel for cattle as any dog I  have ever owned.  You put this with his speed and athleticism, and he is  absolutely outstanding.  I might add that he has lots of range.  It's  not a big deal to send him 1/4-1/2 mile to fetch cattle.  Double J  Border Collies will definitely have a repeat customer with me.  Their  dogs are outstanding.  Thanks Clay."  ~ M.T.

 "It was a wonderful experience welcoming a Double J Border Collie into our home!  Race is so quick to catch onto anything new that I throw at him.  He's also absolutely fearless!   We've had two equipment malfunctions (agility equipment).  I've had a Pause table completely collapse under Race as I sent him to a down.  He  rode the table to the ground and stayed in the down position, giving me  this puzzled look like, 'Okay, this is different -- did I do it  right???'  As I picked up the pieces of the table he kept repositioning  himself till I realized that I hadn't released him!  What a good boy!  The second malfunction was the C-ring broke on the chain that lowers the  height of the teeter.  When I sent him to the teeter, he held his two on and two off as the teeter fell flat. What a great dog!  Neither of these caused him to even flinch.  He is such an amazing, fun dog to train.  And last but not least, a great hugger and a very sweet boy!"   ~ Debbie

 "I have Balto, my best buddy, who is from Diamond Bud x Indian Oak Cata (Rocky x Betsy) born in 2009. Balto has been an  incredible dog and excels at everything we do -- herding, agility, tracking, dock jumping and long hikes we take at State Recreation Areas around Lincoln, Nebraska. Balto is the first dog I have herded with and he was a natural from the start. We have attended numerous herding  workshops with some of the best instructors in the Midwest. We are currently working with two instructors near Lincoln and plan on competing this spring. Balto is a high energy dog with tons of drive in  everything he does but is also one of the best house dogs I have owned. I  would not hesitate to get another Double J puppy; the Johnsons are a  wonderful family and do a great job raising their puppies." ~ Steve
(Steve did get a second Double J pup in 2013 from Lea x Klepto and a third  in 2018 from Lexy x Myke)

 "We bought a female red and white border collie from Double J Border Collies and were very pleased with her.  She was a very  quick learner and paid attention. We have never seen a more loyal dog and one that aimed to please.  She was aggressive with cattle in that she worked not just one cow but the whole herd in moving back and forth and not intimidating them.  She focused on the herd not just one calf or cow.  We would recommend the Double J for finding you the "best fit" for a working dog on your operation. We would not hesitate to use them  again." ~ Georgia

 "Sonnet is turning out to be an incredible agility  dog....and a great all around dog. Everywhere I go and compete people  ask where she is from. She is crazy fast and very fun to run. She is  extremely talented. . . and more important, she is a delightful dog. I  feel so fortunate to have her. Thank you."   ~ Alison
