Q. & A. with Kimberly
Why did you start breeding?
We used to have a cattle ranch and have always raised stock dogs. We have since downsized to a smaller farm with a few cows, horses, goats, chickens, bunnies and our passion, our little Aussies that we enjoy showing.What makes your program special?
We add a family touch and only breed non-aggressive temperaments, every puppy is born & raised with our family in our home where they are cuddled & handled from birth.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
