Parent dogs
Echo, mom
Australian Shepherd
About Echo
Echo is currently finishing up her AKC Championship title in confirmation. She resides on the family farm with her family and favorite person ever created, my son. This girl is always happy and she loves with every ounce of her heart. She is silly, and will sing to you the song of her people. She is athletic, though she enjoys being a couch potato when she is not out playing with her kid, or swimming in the pond.
Great health testing
Dentition, Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI), +2 more.
Cruise, dad
