Q. & A. with Ashley
Why did you start breeding?
After growing up raising animals and birthing horses on a farm all the time. I really fell in love with the breed right out of high school. I researched for 4 years before getting my first full-blooded Aussie. After seeing how smart, loyal, and loving she was I wanted to help others get their perfect Aussie as well.What makes your program special?
We put our hearts and souls into our dogs and puppy program. All of our puppies are raised with puppy culture and our dogs are our family first and foremost. This is a Ho now not a source of income we make sure our priority is always quality not quantityWhere do your breeding dogs live?
