I'm Ralph L., the breeder behind Ralph's Australian Shepherds located in Dayton, NV. We love to responsibly raise and train Aussies so they have the tools to be well-rounded, beloved family members. Our dogs are such an important part of our lives, and we can’t imagine being without them. It’s an amazing experience as breeders to provide others with puppies that we know will bring them the same joy!
