Calli P.

Breeder of Australian Cattle Dogs

Ogden, UT

Meet the breeder

I'm Calli P., the breeder behind Blue Steel Cattle dogs located in Ogden, UT. We’re Calli and Jeromy Puffer, a husband and wife team from northern Utah. Cattle dogs are an incredible working breed with minds that never seem to quit. Our puppies are introduced to potty training and receive their age appropriate vaccinations before going to their new homes.

Q. & A. with Calli

Why did you start breeding?
Jeromy and I both grew up with heelers, so the breed has always held a special place in our hearts. When we got our first cattle dog together, Hunny, we fell even more in love with the breed. Seeing the incredible traits and strong bloodlines she came from inspired us to start Blue Steel Cattle Dogs and share that quality with future generations.
What makes your program special?
At Blue Steel Cattle Dogs our puppies are family and their well being always comes first. We work hard to give every puppy a strong foundation through early potty training, vaccinations, and plenty of love. We also love staying connected with our puppy families and receiving updates as our babies grow. We sometimes get together to have family reunions and let the dogs play. We've become one family
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
