About Us

AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS

I have owned Australian Shepherds for over 20 years. My first Aussie was a pet that I bought from Haley Lamb in Western Australia. Willow was a bright spark in my life when I needed it.

My 2nd Aussie was “Denim” who was rescued from a puppy farmer in Queensland. Back then she came with her purebred papers, but thankfully was too young to breed at the time I rescued her. Although I never bred from her, her pedigree boasted some of the nicest first imports into Australia. Denim had the most beautiful temperament and gentle personality. A beautiful heart, I lost her at 14 years old, I miss her dearly.

When Denim was old, along came my 3rd Aussie from Aimee at Dapsen Kennels. Paris was a handful as a younster, earning her the nickname “The Kangaroo” around the showring! She has had some nice wins in the showring, beating high quality Aussies. As of 2023- 2024, we are taking a break to allow her to mature.

Always ask a breeder if they are a member, and they should show you proof. If they are, they should be doing health testing on the pups and all their adults. If they don’t, run! The puppy might be cheaper, but will cost you more over the lifetime of the dog, especially in vet fees, or worse, not live very long.

Deb has always amazed me at the effort she puts into her dogs. No matter what, their health, happiness and general wellbeing comes first and foremost. I’m looking forward to what the future holds for her and her precious dogs.

Deb is a wonderful lady, with a big heart that has much compassion for her dogs. I’ve had the pleasure of showing Debs dogs and more than a fancy ribbon, she is all about good sportsmanship and making sure every experience for her dogs is a good one. Deb has strong ethics around her animals welfare and any dog that passes through her door is well loved.

I met Deb through dog showing. It was very quickly clear that she loves her dogs whole heartedly. When she went through losing her older Aussie Shepherd, I could see how much the loss affected her, yet when I was facing the same with losing my elderly Aussie, she supported me through that hard time. I wish her the best for all her future adventures - both with the Aussie Shepherds and the exciting upcoming MAS arrivals.

All my dogs are health tested.

All my dogs are registered purebred dogs, that come with several generations pedigree. I do many health checks on all my Aussies and Minis, well before breeding at 2 years or older. Puppies will have the best start to life, and are free of genetically disease such as hip dysplasia, cataracts and other terrible conditions that backyard breeders DO NOT test for. My puppies also come with a life time of support.
