About Us

We strive to breed ASCA & CKC registered dogs that meet the standard for the Australian Shepherd. Learn more about us below!

Where to find us

The dogs and I are living in Sept-Îles, Northeast of Québec, Canada. We are lucky enough to have access to hundreds of kilometers of trails and beautiful scenery in our very own backyard. Having the opportunity to let the dogs roam free on endless beaches, snowy trails and discovering new hikes was what convinced me to move away from my hometown.

​

We might be a few hours away from dog shows, but that doesn't stop us from participating in most of the events in the season. We travel numerous kilometers to participate in CKC and ASCA events, for our dogs' yearly health testing and other dog-related needs throughout the year.

About me

IMG_6551.JPG

My love for Aussies started from the moment I brought Reason home. I was looking for a companion that was biddable, handler focused and up for everything - from lounging on the couch all day to seeking wild adventures! 

In 2020, I was blessed with the opportunity to have my own. From here, the rest is history. My dogs and I dabble in a variety of sports such as conformation, trick training, rally-o, obedience, scent detection and more.

Through my experiences of showing and trialing, I have had the opportunity to meet fellow Aussie enthusiasts who have become both my friends and mentors.

My goal is to produce well rounded Australian Shepherds that are a great representation of the breed - a dog that is conformationally correct and able to perform their job.

Of course, none of this would be possible without my family and friends supporting me through this crazy ride.

About our breeding program

First and foremost, we breed for ourselves, to better our dog's genetics and conformation to the breed standard. We strive to match our females to the dogs that will compliment them best, to select the puppies that stand out to us in every litter planned, and to raise them to be well-rounded dogs capable to go everywhere, with everyone, and do everything. 

​

We believe that life should not be rushed, and breeding dogs is no different. Our females are not to be bred before they are completely health tested and have titles proving their versatility, as well as being tested for herding ability. Our health testing includes having their eyes cleared annually, thyroid every 2 years, a full genetic panel, full dentition, as well as clear hips and elbows, cardiac auscultation and patellas checked out.

The dogs we breed our females to are looked into thoroughly and we thrive to find the best matches for our girls, always keeping in mind their individual weaknesses and the pedigrees behind them. This way, we are able to push our program to the best it can be, within every small detail.​
