Classy Aussies
Meet the breeder
I'm Cathy C., the breeder behind Classy Aussies located in Ontario, OR. Our dogs are bred to love and please. My Australian Shepherds are pros! I raise healthy, loving, super temperament, and beautiful Aussie pups. My dogs are family raised, exposed to ranch and farm life, vaccinated and wormed and very well socialized.
Q. & A. with Cathy
Why did you start breeding?
I worked as a vet tech for years and fell in love with the whole whelping process. It is always such a miracle, never to be taken for granted. Puppies are a gift, as with any babies and should be treated like the precious gifts they are. Raising puppies never gets old!What makes your program special?
I always have time for people, answer all questions and take pride in sending a lot of pictures. I look at it as if I were the one buying the puppy. I also am home and this is what I do. I don't do puppies after work. I take a lot of pride in keeping puppies clean and very well socialized. This is super important to me! They need lots of love and attention.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
