Sky is our super sweet girl from Zoe's second litter. We fell in love with her so quickly - she just loves everything and everyone! She is always so excited about whatever the day brings - from a simple game of fetch to swimming in our pond to working our cows to making an outdoor jungle gym out of the creek and woods to just soaking up the air conditioning and belly rubs. We especially love how hard she can go and still have the off-switch we've valued in our line so much. Genetics play such a big role in the way puppies turn out both physically and temperamentally and we are very grateful to see such ideal qualities continue to be passed down. Sky weighs 47 pounds and stands about 19 inches. She has great bone and an awesome Aussie coat. She is an incredible mother, just like her mom Zoe and grandma Mia!

Zoe produced three absolutely phenomenal litters for us and has been thoroughly enjoying retirement life. I'll never forget the head count we did during her second pregnancy - when the veterinarian said "13" I cried hysterically, to the point that the vet asked what was wrong and my reply was "I love my dog, 13 is too many, I want her to be okay!" and the vet kindly laughed and said "I've had breeders cry because the litter size was too small, but I've never had anyone upset over too many puppies." I definitely did not see dollar signs, just a potentially hard experience for my girl, but it turned out just PERFECT and I added it to my many reasons why I don't question the Lord's plan or provision.
Zoe is our pick of Mia's third and final litter. We are so proud of the dog she has grown into and absolutely love her temperament. Zoe stands about 20 inches and weighs around 50 pounds. She was the star puppy in her obedience training class and continues to outshine everyone! She loves being our running companion and has even competed in various 5K fun runs and Iron Dogs! She has all the qualities we love to see in our Aussies - incredible loyalty, great drive and extremely biddable.

Our beloved Mia is our retired foundation bitch. Our dogs are first and foremost cherished members of our family. We do not believe in breeding every heat cycle, nor during all the year's a dog is capable of raising pups; Mia produced 3 outstanding litters for us. These 14.5 years with her have been nothing but incredible! I know our remaining days with her are limited, but we still giggle at her spunk and ability to keep up with the young whipper-snappers around here! She will always be the "Mother Hen" - every litter gets the privilege of being worked by her when they start going outside for learning and playtime. Mia LOVES water - any opportunity to swim or play with a sprinkler or hose is a good day for our girl. We searched all over for her and were greatly rewarded with the best "personality" Aussies have to offer. Mia stands about 18 inches and weighs around 40 pounds. She lives to please us and loves to learn new tricks and commands. She has great herding insticts and loves to balance the ball when we play fetch as if it were a herd of cattle.

Our very first Aussie “Gus” passed over the rainbow bridge and left our hearts aching without his goofy antics. One of the memories that still makes me laugh was late in life, every time he heard the garage door open, he would jump up and run to his water bowl and drink as fast as he could! He made us laugh so much and really taught us what an Australian Shepherd represents as he worked cattle endlessly without tiring!
He was raised on our family ranch in the Nebraska sandhills. Gus was about 23” and weighed around 65 lbs. After retiring from ranch life, Gus thoroughly enjoyed the process of becoming more of a house dog. He had such a great disposition and the biggest heart an Aussie can have! He learned to enjoy having his teeth brushed daily (which was quite a sight looking back - all 3 of our Aussies at that time would march into the bathroom and wait in line for their turn - this was "pre-kid" haha!), his thick coat combed weekly, his toenails clipped monthly and would do just about anything for a nice long walk. Forever in our hearts, he will always be the one who started it all and taught us so much!
