Scattered Oaks Ranch

Debbie G.

Breeder of Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Debbie G., the breeder behind Scattered Oaks Ranch located in Brooksville, FL. I am a Hobby Breeder of genetically health tested ASCA, AKC and ASDR dogs. Our dogs are our family and enjoy farm living every day.

Q. & A. with Debbie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We bought 2 Aussies for our children, Brandy and Atticus almost 12 years ago. When our Standard was about 5 my husband wanted one of his own to take out with him when he worked his cattle so we bred her with a friend's red tri that was the dog everyone loved! We kept our red Merle Sally out of that litter and my family enjoyed having the puppies so much, we bred 2 years later and so it began.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs aren’t just breeding stock, they are our lifetime family members. We only have one or two litters a year so I can spend time with each puppy. I use puppy culture protocol to socialize my pups and Early Neurological Stimulation amongst other things.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
