Small,
family owned and operated breeders of quality Miniature
Australian Shepherds but we have a passion for all sizes of Aussies. Pups are raised as part of our family on our 230 acre ranch. We have no males that live with us at this time, but have co-own/partner males. Our dogs love to play and are very active but they can calm down and are controllable as well. It is important for us to produce dogs that are a pleasure to live with, easy to train, intelligent, with good social skills, as well as structural soundness and good examples of the breed. We are constantly evaluating our program for this as well as doing our best to not pass on any genetic diseases or problems!
Our dogs are part of our family so we do not ship them off to be bred, do not lease them out, etc. Sometimes after they are retired we will spay and place them in their forever homes so we don't keep too many dogs here (4-6 at the very most). We are trying to keep more of our dogs in co-own/partner homes so our dogs have more individualized attention.
We test our dogs for PRA/PRCD, Hereditary Cataracts, CERF, MDR1, and OFA (hips)!
We are striving to produce the "whole package" - great structure, healthy, athletic, smart, willing, confidence, good drive, etc. We are only keeping breeding dogs from very consistant litters so we can continue on with consistancy in our litters. They are scrutinized strongly in structure and personality (using Suzanne Clothier's method) at 8 weeks or so. After many years, we are finally now reaching our goals!!! Tails docked, dewclaws removed.
VISITORS are welcome to come meet and play with the parents and puppies
