I started looking for a Collie about a month before Harley Collies was
recommended to me by another breeder. I was told that John and Linda
had a 5 month male tri colored left from their last litter. I didn’t think this
was what I was looking for but I went ahead and contacted Linda and I’m
so glad that I did. It turns out that Jake (formerly none as Speed) was
blind in one eye due to a detached retina so it made things a bit more
difficult for Jake to find a home. BUT that didn’t keep John and Linda from
giving up on him; what impressed me the most about Linda was her
desire for Jake to go to a happy, loving home and that’s what sold me on
getting Jake. Linda answered all of my questions and was very honest
and upfront about Jakes condition. I was completely in the dark about
collies, their eye conditions or even buying a purebred dog.  Linda took
the time to explain everything and still keeps in contact today.  Jake
came to me with all of his baby pictures, shot records, eye tests, a
blanket, toys and ,better yet, John and Linda were able to tell me about
his personality and his favorite toy to play with (a plastic water bottle).  
Jake is now seven months old and he’s so smart and a joy to be around.   
I would most definitely use Harley Collies again and I would highly
recommend them to my friend and family.

Our experience seeking and obtaining a first rate Collie from www.harleycollies.com was outstanding in
every aspect.  John and Linda Lanham are not only two of the nicest down to earth people you will meet,
but it was also highly evident by the knowledge and care they display that we were dealing with the very
best Collie Breeders in the global arena.

We were so impressed by the care and attention to detail given to each Collie that it was an easy choice
to work with them through the process.  Well worth it in every aspect.  I could also tell it was hard for
John and Linda to separate ways with Horatio but also believe they had some comfort in knowing he was
going to a nice home where the love and care for him would continue.

We have worked with other breeders in the past as our lives are filled with loving pets of all breeds, but
without a doubt, John and Linda were exceptional and above their peers.  We have had Collies in the past
but this experience was the best.  Linda and John’s knowledge of the breed and health issues far
surpassed any prior breeder we have worked with.  What a fantastic experience bringing Horatio into our
home from such good care.

I could write pages of references for them, but the bottom line was besides having well documented
paperwork, medical, and family history, they exceeded our expectations in all other areas of good care and
breeding steps.  I highly recommend if you’re looking for a Collie, please work with Linda and John as you
will not be disappointed and will have peace of mind you obtained the best.

I am very pleased with Thunder and especially working with Linda &
John Lanham (Harley Collies) . Linda answered all my questions
about collies and helped me decide whether Thunder would be the
right dog for us . This is my very first collie and I decided to take the
plunge with an older collie so that I could have enough information  
to see whether he would fit in with my dogs and small farmette of
various livestock of chickens, goats  and horses. Linda took the time
to answer each and every one of my questions. Thunder was
described  to be a lover of all things & he did not disappoint. He was
able to make the transition into my home very easily and now I am
starting to see him  relax a bit more and show his personality.
I highly recommend Linda & John  when seeking a collie or collie
puppy. I cannot say enough about how well cared for Thunder has
been. He arrived with a crate full of toys, food and a pile of
information and notes for his care. Linda is  dedicated to the breed
and has prioritized health overall which I felt was very important  to
me.  I certainly feel I have the support of a breeder and a mentor for
the rest of Thunders life and would not hesitate to recommend them
to anyone seeking to find a collie for their family.

To Whom it may Concern:

I bought a collie named Missy from Linda Lanham in April of 2009. She
is the most beautiful collie I have ever seen and she reminds me of Lassie
every day. I could tell the moment we got her home that she had been
well taken care of. She has the sweetest disposition and loves everyone
that comes to my door. I found her on-line and emailed Linda with my
phone number. We contacted each other by phone and discovered that we
lived about 8 hours apart. We decided to meet at a halfway point for the
exchange.
Since Missy was an older dog I was happy to find that I didn't have
to house train her and she obeys most any command. She is one of the
most loving dogs that I've ever had and I know this is due to the care and
concern that she was shown by Linda and her family while she was
growing up. Since Missy was a show dog Linda provided me a file with all
pertinent information included. Even until this day I still receive emails
from Linda checking on how Missy is doing. I know my dog was loved
when she was growing up because she loves everyone she meets.

Sincerely,


Sherri Collier Olsen
