ABOUT US
ColliesWithoutBorders was founded by Flora Scheck, a collie owner, who was touched by the devastation in Ukraine and, through Facebook friendships, realized how many collies and owners were impacted. Finding themselves unable to buy food for their beloved collies and other family animals was one more horrible by- product of the war. The war in Ukraine gave us a purpose, Collies and their families united, joined paws and hands, and worked out a plan to give and help, proudly taking a stand to make sure no collie will be left behind. Collies became for us a beacon of gentle hope, beauty, and peace, teaching us what courage, tenacity, and faith are in the face of such inhumanity and cruelty. We found a common cause and together we became an overnight force.

🐾 Attention Rough Collie Lovers!
Living in Ukraine is like experiencing fireworks every night, but for many Ukrainian Rough Collie owners, the explosions aren't just in the sky – they're in their neighbourhoods, echoing the turmoil of conflict.
We often deal with sad, stressful situations at CWB. What lifts our spirits? Puppies!
Our Journey Through Pictures
“Helena, a very smart girl, has learned the sounds of the siren and knows what to do! She runs to her closet for a vest and asks to put it on, and then she needs to be given calming candies!
Look at her smile, she is brave now, thanks to her collie family!!!”
-Iryna
Dogs were suffering with anxiety from the bombing. If you have ever owned a dog that feared thunder storms and fireworks you will understand. Thunder storms and fireworks end. The bombing is relentless at times. Some of our familie's collies died from heart attacks. When we became aware of this we raised funds to send calming treats and anti-anxiety vests to collies in Ukraine. They are getting to the collies in need!
