About Us
I hope you have enjoyed going thru our website and meeting our Family of Aussies. Now to tell you a little about myself...I have always, as long as I can remember, had a love for animals. I have had all kinds of course including dogs. My love was with the dogs. I started out when I was around 20 years old with the Whippets. I tried my hand at AKC showing for a while and also a small breeding program with the Whippets. I really loved the showing and breeding of the dogs, but I got married and had a child, so this put all of my plans on hold for a while. I started breeding again when I started my Grooming career. I owned a Grooming Salon for about 18 years. At this time I started a small breeding program once again. Well, you know the rest! Here I am today breeding the Aussies. We started with the Standard Australian Shepherd in 1999. I absolutely fell in love with the breed and loved working with them. We moved to OK in 2001 and I met a lady there that bred the Miniature Australian Shepherds. When we came back to NC in 2003, a friend of mine was breeding the mini's, so I got my first male mini from her, and now here we are.
So with Gods help and also my husbands help, I am doing what I love to do best...working with my dogs. I sold my grooming business and now I am a stay at home mom to my dogs.
This is Hannah & Cheyanne, my first 2 standard aussies. Both girls were 18", so come to find out they are actually concidered Mini's. They are from old foundation type that is very hard to find anymore. These girls were the heart of my breeding program. Hannah is the Red Merle and Cheyanne is the Blue Merle. Cheyanne went to the Rainbow Bridge in July 2011. We all Miss You Annie!!
Now we work very hard to try and keep the foundation of the aussies in our program with what they call now the " Mini's ". You can read more about the history on the Breed Info page. I did alot of research on the breed and still do, to try and keep the Intelligence, Temperament, Health, etc in my breeding program. We try to provide Families with a wonderful happy, healthy puppy that will be with them for a long life!
They are Your Friend, Your Partner, Your Defender, Your Dog.
You are their Life, their Love, their Leader.
They will be yours, Faithful & True, to the last beat of their heart.
