Parent dogs
RC, mom
Australian Shepherd
About RC
While RC is a very calm demeanor dog, she is also just as active as her peers. She has been around horses, cats, other dogs big and small, and children. She is very quiet and loves to have relaxing snuggle days. She too loves to swim and play fetch in the yard! RC is not registered but is proven purebred Australian Shepherd.
Leo, dad
Australian Shepherd
About Leo
Leo is our super active and energetic stud dog residing here on our farm. Leo has been around livestock knowing the basics of how to work them. He has been around horses his entire life. He enjoys going on trail rides with us, where he gets to swim in our creek. He is extremely agile and also well behaved around the horses, cattle, other dogs, cats, small animals, and children. He has had many very healthy litters, and we’ve never had a complaint about the pups!
