Q. & A. with Nancy
Why did you start breeding?
I got my first Aussie in 1986. A few years later, I attended my first ASCA (Australian Shepherd Club of America) conformation dog show and I was hooked. I had wonderful mentors that have helped me learn and progress in preserving a very special breed of dog. Our dogs excel at their primary job of being an excellent family companion, as well as excel in conformation, obedience, herding, rally, therapy, tracking, agility, and search and rescue.What makes your program special?
Our dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. We are committed to each puppy we put into the world and are here for lifetime breeder support. We strive to place all of our dogs in responsible, loving homes that are dedicated to the well-being of their new family member.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Miniature American Shepherd puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Australian Shepherd puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
