I'm Jessica B., the breeder behind Bell’s Down ‘n Dirty Australian Shepherds located in Dahlonega, GA. I strive to breed healthy, quality pups that can fit any lifestyle. I take pride in raising well tempered and socialized puppies. Whether they will be helping on the farm, or beloved family pets.
Q. & A. with Jessica
Why did you start breeding?
Growing up around horses introduced me to many working Australian shepherds. I purchased my first girl Maggie about 7 years ago and fell in love with the breed. I wanted to share my love for Aussies so I began breeding after owning our sweet girl.
What makes your program special?
I do not dock tails or remove front dew claws. I also work for a vet so all of my dogs and puppies receive the best care possible.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
