I'm Kierra P., the breeder behind Smokey Row Australian Shepherds located in Bargersville, IN. We are passionate about the breed and compete in AKC and ASCA dog shows. While we love bonding with them through shows, they are most importantly our beloved indoor pets. We strive to produce outstanding puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. Our dogs and puppies are lovingly raised in our home as part of our family so that they can be an excellent addition to yours!
Q. & A. with Kierra
Why did you start breeding?
I regularly participate in conformation shows, and I started breeding to better the breed. I strive to not only produce beautiful puppies, but help promote responsible breeding in order to ensure that the Australian Shepherd stays healthy and will continue to thrive for generations to come.
What makes your program special?
I show my dogs competitively and do not breed my dogs unless they are fully health tested and meet conformation standards. I am dedicated to always having responsible breeding policies not only when producing puppies, but when socializing and training them, too! This is where amazing temperament, intelligence, and beauty meet!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Brucellosis
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
