Puppy Questionnaire
GOLD CREEK RANCH
We'd Love to Get to Know You
Choosing a Gold Creek Ranch Border Collie is about much more than joining a waiting list.
It's the beginning of a relationship.
Our Puppy Questionnaire helps us learn about you, your family, your experience, and your hopes for your future Border Collie. In turn, it allows us to thoughtfully match each puppy with the home where they are most likely to thrive.
There is no obligation in completing the questionnaire, and filling it out does not guarantee the purchase of a puppy.
Rather, it begins the conversation and helps us determine whether Gold Creek Ranch Border Collies is the right fit for you – and whether we are the right fit for your family.

Before You Begin
Before completing the Puppy Questionnaire, please be sure to first read the following pages:
These resources answer many of the questions prospective owners have about our breeding program, puppy development philosophy, reservation process, and what to expect when bringing home a Gold Creek Ranch Border Collie.
Please Take Your Time
We genuinely enjoy reading your responses.
The more you share with us, the better we can understand what you're looking for in a Border Collie and how we can help match you with the right puppy.
Thoughtful, detailed answers are far more helpful than brief one-word responses.
We're interested in learning about:
-
Your experience with Border Collies or other dogs
-
Your lifestyle and home environment
-
What you hope to do with your future Border Collie
-
The qualities that are most important to you
-
Why you feel a Gold Creek Ranch Border Collie is the right fit for your family
There are no "perfect" answers—we simply appreciate honesty and openness.

Choosing the Right Puppy
Every puppy is an individual.
While many families have preferences regarding color, markings, or gender, our first priorities have always been temperament, health, intelligence, soundness, and working ability.
Our goal is to help you find the puppy whose personality and natural strengths best complement your goals and lifestyle.
That's why we spend so much time getting to know both our puppies and our puppy families.
Before You Submit
If possible, please complete the questionnaire on a computer rather than a mobile device.
Once you've submitted your questionnaire, we recommend sending Suzy a quick text or leaving a voicemail letting her know it's been completed. Occasionally technology isn't perfect, and we'd never want to miss the opportunity to connect with you.

What Happens Next?
Once we receive your completed Puppy Questionnaire, we'll take the time to carefully review your responses.
If we believe Gold Creek Ranch Border Collies may be a good fit for your family, Suzy will personally reach out to continue the conversation, answer your questions, and learn more about what you're hoping for in your future Border Collie.
Because we receive many inquiries throughout the year, response times can vary, but every questionnaire is personally reviewed.
If possible, we recommend sending Suzy a quick text or leaving a voicemail after submitting your questionnaire, simply letting her know it's been completed. Occasionally technology isn't perfect, and we'd never want to miss the opportunity to connect with you.

We Look Forward to Meeting You
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about yourself.
Choosing a Border Collie is an important decision, and choosing the right breeder is equally important. We don't take either responsibility lightly.
Whether you're looking for a trusted ranch partner, a Search & Rescue prospect, a competitive sport dog, or simply an extraordinary companion, we're honored you've considered Gold Creek Ranch Border Collies.
We look forward to getting to know you and helping you determine whether one of our puppies is the right addition to your family.
