Q. & A. with Lauren

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Over 16 years ago, I was introduced to Australian Cattle Dogs through my sister-in-law, Stella, when she got her very first blue heeler- Lucy.  I was struck by Lucy’s loyalty, affection, and keen intelligence.  This sparked my interest to learn everything about heelers and this obsession quickly became a passion to work with this breed. 
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
