K & R Australian Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Richelle R., the breeder behind K & R Australian Shepherds located in Aloha, OR. I offer quality AKC Australian Shepherd puppies for families who share the same love and passion that I do for this breed. I work hard to produce healthy, happy Australian Shepherd puppies, and I take great pride in my breeding program. Both are health tested. I look forward to connecting you.
Q. & A. with Richelle
Why did you start breeding?
When my Aussie boy Riley passed at 12.5 yrs, I started looking for another Australian Shepherd. It was so hard to find well bred Aussies in my area. I didn't want just another Australian Shepherd. I wanted certain characteristics and conformation. I looked for months. I’m so happy to have found two amazing dogs. We feel so blessed to have Thor and Stella.What makes your program special?
We are a very small breeding program. We raise our dogs in a family environment inside our home. Our litters will be socialized with kids, horses & dogs. We plan to start with some basic obedience skills. Puppies will have tails docked & dewclaws removed. They will also have a well check visit with our veterinarian prior to going home. We will send puppies home with little a goodie bag & their AKC paperwork, vaccine and worming records.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
