A little about us

My name is Lis Nielsen. It all started when my husband Mark and I purchased our first Border Collie in 1991 - Heli's Lady Mischa - Mischa. Already in 1992 we got our second girl - Heli's O'nadia - Nadia. These 2 girls were amazing...!!! They were soo easy to have and live with (of course we spend a lot of time with them every day). After we have been looking for our third girl for nearly 2 years we found her in 1995 - BorderShock Launching Silver Strut - Sisse. She was ONE SPECIAL GIRL who had it all!!!  Sisse was the foundation of our kennel. Maliway Border Collies started in the end of 1997. (Maliway stands for MArk and LIs and our way). From 1996-1997 we have been a part of BorderShock Border Collies. And we have had 2 litters in that kennel name. We now have 14 border collies, 2 German Wirehaireds and 1 Jack Russell Terrier at our home right now. And we love every single one of them. The kids we decide to keep will be a part of our family for as long as they live. That is why we have the amount of dogs we have. Even though nearly half of them are "on pension", they still do a wonderful job teaching the young ones the house rules and how to behave... Of course every once a while also some "bad habits" :o)).

We live in a minor farm. Our dream spot on earth. We are slowing down now, but we used to have sheep, a little bit of geese, ducks and chickens. We used to train obedience and agility, but when we saw Sisse started to herd and saw how deep her instinct were everything else faded. The feeling when sheep, dog and yourself are working together is second to none!!! I miss the sheep very much. They were soo relaxing to be with and not quite as stupid as some people say! We are now focusing on our dogs - trying to give them a good and for filling life without sheep.

I am forever grateful to my husband Mark for helping me!!!
