Our Australian Shepherds are AKC and/or ASCA registered. We do not breed nor support the Mini Aussie fad, nor do we raise Mini American Shepherds. Our dogs are our house pets first, and competition is second.
Health is our primary goal. We use appropriate health testing as tools in our breeding decisions.
Biddability is our second goal. We appreciate a good dog. Our secondary goal is to promote and produce dogs who *WANT* to make you happy. Aussies are this way by nature, but there are bad apples in the tree. We wish to avoid them and not duplicate them. Nothing is more deeply moving than the unconditional love and honest desire for your happiness that an Aussie has.
Type. For us, Type is so closely following Biddability and Health that the three are one. We strive to adhere to the ASCA standard, as it was intended. Aussies are not meant to be tiny delicate flowers, nor are they meant to be oxen. ASCA standard states :
"First and foremost, the Australian Shepherd is a true working stockdog, and
anything that detracts from his usefulness as such is undesirable. The most
important breed characteristics are overall moderation in size and bone,
balance with correct proportions, and sound movement."
