ASCA/AKC spay contract only
Red merle girl
Herding, performance or an active family that hikes, bikes etc and understands the needs of a high drive dog.
This pup will be amazing at whatever she does. She is on a spay contract because of a small hole in the iris of her right eye. This is called iris coloboma. It has no ill affects other than it is not recommended to be used as a breeding dog. Some dogs with large ones are sensitive to bright lights but hers is small and she will never know the difference.

ASCA/AKC
I still have 1 red merle female, 3 male red bi pups and 2 female red bi pups available. The red merle was spoken for but they had a change in life and can't take the pup now. This will be my last litter for a little while. I want to not have a summer litter next summer so Mesa may or may not be bred again at 1.5 years from now and Rainy still isn't old enough and hasn't had all exams yet. She wouldn't be ready before next fall anyway. So don't miss out on these pups! Great pups, high drive, all older siblings are doing well in training so far. One person on the list still needs to choose from remaining pups, so I am not 100% sure which will be avaible until they pick next week. They need working or performance families

My Chaps entered the Australian Shepherd futurity this past weekend. He did an amazing job. He was in the novice class and accomplished 4 first place runs, 1 second place run and 1 fourth place run. We earned two buckles and a check! So very proud of my boy (photo by Mrs. Nelson, wife of Bruce Nelson.)

The Australian Shepherd ear sets (of course the vary some). Many now days have much heavier low set ears that are actually outside of the written standard. What do you pups ears look like?

Some people still try and keep working dogs seperate and kenneled, unless working, because people use to think that if living inside with you they wouldn't be as willing to work. Now you do still have to work them on a regular basis and keep them in good shape, but in my experience, a dog that is bonded to you works super hard to do things right!
