Welcome to the home of Julie Hill and Neth Hill Border Collies
Welcome to my site - I hope you find the information here interesting and insightful. If there is anything missing from the site that you would like to ask me about I would be delighted to hear from you.
I have worked with working Border Collies since 1982 and over the years I have bred and trained a number of highly successful sheepdogs (both for farming and the trial field).
My passion and enthusiasm for sheepdogs has seen me achieve success representing Scotland at both the International and World Sheepdog trials. Making history in 1996, when I became the first and currently only woman to win the Supreme International Championship since the competition inception over 100 years ago! Also a winner of both the Supreme and the International Brace Championships. Other achievements include winning the Scottish National Championship, the Scottish National Brace Championship, the Scottish National Driving Championship and the Champion of Champions competition.
I provide training and demonstrations for individuals and groups both at home, nationally and internationally.

I have been using Wonderdog original for a few years now. Not only do my dog's love it with lots of dry meat mixed through, but it keeps them in tremendous condition. It has improved stamina for long days working on the rough terrain here at Carcant.

I have recently introduced 'Winston & Porter's Nourish + C Max Strength Joint Supplement' to some of my ageing working dogs. Just after two weeks I noticed improvement to flexibility and movement in my dogs.
The ground they work is steep and rugged, an unsympathetic environment that causes stress and strains to the dogs physique. I definitely will be continuing to use this quality product and recommend it to other. Nethhillbordercollies
