Q. & A. with Julie
Why did you start breeding?
We searched for two years for our first pair and another two years for Maggie. We wanted to share the dog to those wanting a good herding or active dog. Aussies are not for every home.What makes your program special?
We only breed one pair at a time. Our dogs are our family first, then breed. And we enjoy developing good relationships with puppy people. Getting a dog isn't just buying a four-legged creature, it's about the breeder connection too.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
