Lake Creek Aussies
Meet the breeder
I'm Mary B., the breeder behind Lake Creek Aussies located in Deadwood, OR. Sitting on forty acres of fields, and forest we provide the dogs with the ability to explore nature and to be exposed to the daily life of a farm. We believe in healthy, happy, well-rounded dogs. Not only do we provide people with dogs that may become family, but dogs that will perform the tasks that they are bred for and love. Here at Lake Creek Aussies, we hope to find the companion or working dog that you are looking for.
Q. & A. with Mary
Why did you start breeding?
I started helping my parents raise Labs when I was in middle school. But since owning our first Aussies, I fell in love with them.What makes your program special?
The amount of time we put into them. They are raised in the house with our family. Customers say their puppies aren’t afraid of anything because of all the exposure they have at a young age.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
