I purchased a puppy from Collier Ranch and just love him. He is the sweetest most loving little guy. They showed me how to groom him and were very helpful, even after I took him home. My only dissapointment is that I received a letter from the AKC 8 months after I got him saying that they could not confirm his lineage and therefore he was no longer AKC certified. Aparently blood testing proved that his parents could not have come from the line they were claimed to have come from. I was willing to pay the $2000 they asked for him because the litter had AKC papers. I was quite shocked when the AKC rescinded his certification.

He is now 17 months old, weighs 8 lb 13 oz and still has his black puppy coat.
