About Artemis
Artemis is a black-tri brown eyed Australian Shepherd, she loves playing fetch outside and racing anyone. She is registered with the CKC (Continental Kennel Club)
Boreas, dad
Australian Shepherd
About Boreas
Boreas is a standard size red-tri aussie, he was born with blue eyes but in the first several months after his birth one eye transformed into green. Don't worry it's completely normal! He came from a wonderful breeder who went through great lengths to ensure her dog's received the best love and care before sending them off to their forever homes. He is my snuggle buddy, absolutely loyal, loving, and if you give him a command he's determined to make sure the dogs around him do the same. For this I joke that he is such a kiss-up and momma's boy. When I come home there is hardly a moment where he is not by my side unless he is off playing with my children. He is very protective of his family but enjoys meeting new people and animals, yes even cats. Boreas is registered with the ASDR and CKC (Continental Kennel Club)
