Q. & A. with Kimberly
Why did you start breeding?
We originally researched breeds for helping us out on on farm to herd cattle. We picked Aussies and just fell in love. Over time people would always ask where we got our dog and what breed they were and at the time Aussies were rather scarce so we bred a few litters. My husband and has a degree in animal production so breeding and Whelping are easy and I just loved it so it become my primary focus to research so I could be the best breeder possible.What makes your program special?
We do it for the love of the dogs! My crew are my family and what I spend all of my time and energy on. It is so rewarding to see the joy our puppies bring to families and the updates of how they have become family.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
