Q. & A. with Natasha
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding after I got my first Australian Shepherd, Oliver. He helped open a whole new world in my life by teaching me how important responsible breeding is. I knew I wanted to contribute to an amazing breed in some way, so I set out to start my journey by finding the right girl to start off with. I knew what I wanted my lines to be and did a lot of research before continuing on!What makes your program special?
I strive to produce quality Australian Shepherds that can do just about anything they’re set forth to. I breed for even temperaments, good conformation, and biddable personalities that can easily handle family life and/or work life. I love my dogs and every family that gets a dog from me becomes a part of my family! I provide 24/7/365 assistants to all of my puppy families and help guarantee a perfect fit.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, red, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
