Who I am
Martina Pagnin, founder and owner of the New Dream’s Border kennel, began her journey in 2005 with the arrival of her first Border Collie, Renee. With Renee, Martina started practicing Agility Dog at an amateur level and participating in beauty shows. She was immediately captivated by the exceptional qualities of the breed, including their learning ability, collaboration, and remarkable intelligence.
​
Driven by her passion for Border Collies, Martina decided to dedicate herself with respect and commitment to breeding this magnificent breed. In 2009, she welcomed Eevee, a Border Collie from the renowned Bordeline Country kennel of Heidi Poschacher. Descended from prestigious Australian bloodlines, Eevee became the foundation of the New Dream’s Border kennel.
​
The kennel's first litter was born in 2010, and since then, the activity has expanded through the import of dogs with prestigious pedigrees from different parts of the world and numerous successful litters.
Martina devotes continuous research and study of bloodlines to breed healthy dogs with balanced temperaments and morphologically in line with the breed standard. This dedication earned her, in 2012, the prestigious Master Breeder title recognized by ENCI, confirming her professionalism and expertise in the field.
​
Today, New Dream’s Border boasts over 50 beauty champions, more than 100 championship titles, and over 30 dogs recognized in various canine sports disciplines, solidifying the kennel's reputation on an international level.

Our breeding policy
New Dream’s Border is a family-run kennel, officially recognized by ENCI and FCI. We carefully select healthy, well-balanced Border Collies that meet breed standards—ideal both as family pets and for dog sports.
​
All our dogs undergo comprehensive genetic testing to prevent hereditary diseases. They live in a peaceful, enriching family environment, and our females are bred only a limited number of times, always with their well-being as the top priority.
​
We don’t “produce” puppies—we breed responsibly. Our litters are few, highly selective, and available by reservation. Our goal is to offer dogs that are true life companions in every sense.
New Dream’s Border represents passion, professionalism, and deep respect for the Border Collie breed. Selective breeding is at the core of every decision we make—from sourcing prestigious bloodlines to raising puppies that are healthy, well-balanced, and morphologically sound. This ongoing commitment earned us the prestigious ENCI Master Breeder title, a certification of the quality and ethics behind our work.
​
Each litter is the result of years of study and dedication, with the goal of preserving and enhancing the remarkable traits of the Border Collie: intelligence, cooperation, and versatility. New Dream’s Border stands at the crossroads of tradition and innovation, offering not only beautiful and high-performing dogs, but also unique life companions for those who share our values and passion.


Our selection work
At New Dream’s Border, our breeding choices are the result of conscious decisions based on health, temperament, and adherence to breed standards. In addition to comprehensive genetic testing to prevent hereditary diseases, we work closely with specialized veterinarians to ensure the highest reliability in our breeding dogs.
​
Our dogs are raised in a stimulating family environment, actively involved in daily life, which helps them develop a stable temperament—ideal for domestic living.
To safeguard the well-being of our females, we limit the number of litters and assess each breeding based on the individual dog's health. We also participate in dog shows to maintain high morphological standards and encourage proper socialization.
​
Every puppy born in our kennel is the outcome of dedicated, ethical, and ongoing work—an investment reflected in the value of the animal: a healthy, balanced, and carefully chosen companion.
In our kennel, the health and well-being of our Border Collies and Miniature American Shepherds are our top priorities.
​
All breeding dogs undergo rigorous genetic and health testing for the breed’s main hereditary conditions, conducted exclusively by certified laboratories.
This ensures healthy puppies, carefully selected with the utmost attention to temperament, morphology, and aptitude.
