Q. & A. with Tiffany
What makes your program special?
Our Aussies are mainly our family pets. They spend most of their days running around the farm helping with whatever we are doing outside. They make great family pets. They are called Velcro dogs because they wanted to be with their families no matter what they are doing. My aussies have a lower herd drive, they still need exercise and something to do, but they are not ones to bounce off the walls.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red merle, blue merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. 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.
