Town & Country English Shepherds

Mia is my all around farm dog and friend, she picks up on everything and just takes things in stride. She excels at (pretty much!) everything she turns her paw to. Whether we are doing tricks (where she holds titles of NTD, NTD-Master, ITD, ATD & ETD), herding goats or sheep, working cows, stopping the guineas from "yelling" at us, playing fetch or disc, running agility, playing with dog dance/freestyle, taking a dip/fetch in the waterhole... she is my constant companion, shadow and right hand girl. We've also dabbled in some shed hunt, where she holds an SD-1 NASDA title. True to her love of retrieving, she has a Fetch title as well. We've began working towards herding titles in 2026, with her easily earning her beginner (HT) title. We hope to continue adding to those over the remainder of the year. She is the answer to many hopes and prayers for a granddaughter of the one and only Quigley Downs! She is now the dog I always want to be able to point to in my own future ES pedigrees. Just a very special girl. Having now mothered some amazing litters of pups each by different studs, she has proven to also be a consistent producer of pups that have her abilities, farm qualities, smarts, and just innate "knowing", rolled up in an athletic, higher drive type of ES (regardless of the sire). Goals with litters are to maintain the traditional farm and family traits, while creating dogs that can excel in versatility and "whatever they put a paw to". Past Mia babies have been placed (and excelling!) on working farms and ranches, as well as as sports competitors and SAR dogs in training. She has put a temperament on her pups, regardless of sire that is on the more friendly side (though she herself is a more reserved girl) and she has some nice agrotourism farm greeters out there as well. Mia is PennHip 0.46/0.39, and clear for all breed relevant diseases including PRA6. Results available upon request. Although clear, we do not negate a carrier or dog with an imperfection, from our program, but instead seek to "breed to better" the breed and choose the mate that will complement where they lack, and with a big emphasis on what the pedigree represents. Veering from aggressive tendencies and pedigrees, all while sticking with the breed standard of size, overall type, and good conformation to hold up to years of work and activity.
