AKC’s; A2’s One Who Shares No Equal KIMI. 🐾

Kimi is going to be 7 months old in the next two weeks. She’s very bossy and very adamant about barking for everything 😂 She’s my AKC female prospect! With Khino I couldn’t have been more lucky and with Kimi it’s all about how she continues to mature. Anyway, 3/4 everybody and or Sky is last.

For those of you who have been following, Rocky use to be our ASDR ACD stud but he’s found his forever home at a ranch in Tucson. His last litter within in my program is with Coco who is due September 17th (expected chocolate and chocolate sable pups). Now renamed Dutton, he’s happy as can be and will sire a female within their program, a gorgeous true blue female.

08/08/2024

Now that I’ve posted updates of our male Khino, today is our female Coco’s turn! 🐾 Today she is 2 & a half years old, at about 18 inches tall and weighs 36pounds. She is my only chocolate heeler! Personally I LOVE the chocolate coat.
Coco is very sweet, attentive and loves to hunt birds, lizards and the ball 😂 Due🤰🏽on Sept 17, this will be her last litter with Rocky. Waiting list is full but people always back out last minute so stay tuned!

All have great homes reserved. ✨

Fun fact! We learned about genetics approximately 4 years ago & researched what genetics meant to breeding. Now enforce it in our program not only to test, but to learn about what genetics compliment each other and which should be avoided.

When we allow someone to use our stud Rocky, we do so because he is clear of genetic unhealthy markers prone to complications in the near or far future. Chopper pictured here is our POL with him & ‘s female Emmie Lou. The litter was absolutely gorgeous, happy and smart but above all healthy.
⚠️ And they still have pups avail for reh oming! ⚠️

📸 Gorgeous photos by who always does an amazing job capturing the right moment and perfecting it with edits. Please consider her for your next photoshoot!

Mesquite and A2’s A Red Charmer “Khino”.
My ball obsessed, people herding, intelligent red AKC Australian Cattle Dog. ✨

Follow us for more of our program, tips and photos of our beautiful pack. 🐾

06/14/2024

FUN FACT! Whenever the situation gets complicated for any of the families who get one of our pups, we try and help, advise and support. Now if the heeler needs to come back we’ll take him or her back and help find them find a great home!

In this female’s case, she was returned to us because she went to a breeder home and decided not to be bred and now looking for a better fit! PET HOME ONLY, she is 4 months old today! Great with other dogs, people and children, started on kennel and potty training and will more than likely remain on the smaller side. Please reach out for more deets! 🐾

🎉 She’s found a home, please follow us for future puppy updates! Thank you!🎉

A2 Australian Cattle Dogs Rocky & Coco’s Chocolate and Chocolate Sable L i t t e r.

Personally, I’m in awe of Rocky and what he produces as far as ears, jaw, body build and color.
Koko and the temperament of her babies. Their color, their sharp personalities and affectionate demeanor. I have a week left with all the pups here and it’s going to be emotional as it always is but those 8 weeks with each and every l i t t e r is special and we make the best of it while we can - the whole fam and i. ❣️

Rocky and Coco 2.0 Expected in the Fall.

03/26/2024

I went to petco just yesterday to grab some “keep-off” (it’s a magical spray yall look it up) and I saw some biothane leashes and collars I loved. I walked away because I remembered of someone local that might even be more affordable. Sure enough had these amazing colors, spent the day customizing them to my liking, I chose the hardware and they’re going to get mailed out TODAY! Not to mention how important it is to ! Thank you for designing all the goodies for my entire pack and your professionalism speaks volumes!
Everyone go check them out! 🥰

Our newest addition, my baby girl Kimi. ❤️‍🔥
AKC registered pup from daughter of Sire Judge & Dam Azul! We decided to stay with a “K” name and wanted something unique to her so her full name is ’s “She who is without equal - Kimi” which also signifies righteous or noble in Japanese. Today on her 8 week mark we couldn’t be happier with how smart and gorgeous she is. We’re so glad to have her home!

03/03/2024

Our sweet girl turned 6 weeks will be ready for us to bring her home in two weeks! We haven’t confirmed a name yet although we thought we had! And we haven’t shared her much because other plans we were excited for didn’t pan out.
Sabine the one year old AKC won’t be coming here after all due to health and behavioral issues as excited as we were for that. Also I will be this ^ AKC pups sole owner after all! No co-owns but still plan to show her 🥰 Sometimes we make plans & it doesn’t always come out perfectly but everything happens for a reason! Currently in our plans - last addition. The 4th live in dog here with momma. Isn’t she a beaut !?
Anyway.. long story y’all don’t jinx me on this one here, I’m incredibly excited and emotional for this pup here 💖 Any name ideas with a B or X anywhere in the name?? 🤓

Let me tell you how I ended getting my handsome boy Khino. I gave someone a ride to see an AKC ACD male they were hoping to use with their female. Their female didn’t have baer, hips and elbows yet so stud owner said not today but let me show you my AKC puppies. I thought sure, we’re already here and my liddo daughter was with me.. who doesn’t like puppies? Out comes this big pup with a large smile on his face! With his brothers just wreaking havoc left and right! And Khino here with the spot on his eye had the most mischievous facial expressions.. my attention was locked on him. With no intention to spend money, I strategize and I ask myself; am I really going to leave him behind? Y’all when I say love at first sight I am not exaggerating 😂 Anyway here he is at 6 months old, waiting for what direction the ball is going so he can bring it back to me 🥰

Of the ten, one week after birth four remain! One handsome male who may either be like sire or dam, one female that may go either way as well and a definite sable (red) female and a definite chocolate double masked female. NAPR, ready April 10th from health genetic tested parents 🧬 Sahuarita, Az 🌵

02/14/2024

💘What are the odds?💘
Our chocolate heeler Coco had her litter of healthy pups this Valentine’s Day morning! 10 beautiful males and females a mixture of chocolates and reds like her and sire, our stud Rocky. She’s doing well and resting and feeding exactly like we’d hoped. Congratulations to the families on our waiting list, there’s 3 pups who do not have a designated home. More photos to come! 🥰

This gorgeous red gal is my POL from Rocky and Acorn l i t t e r of Soqui Ortiz Cattle Ranch. She’s been reserved to an awesome home! Just look at how gorgeous she is.. Her siblings are amazing as well but unfortunately there’s only 2 males left!

02/04/2024

P’UP-dates’ are the best! 🐾This is Kiwi, a red female from our last litter with our stud Rocky Red and our female Sky. So far at 11 weeks she has sit, paw, rollover and potty training down with the exception of a couple of accidents 🙈
We can’t get over how beautiful and smart she is! And how great her home is - truly grateful. ☺️ Fun Fact; I’ve been breeding for 8 years and have only ever bred Australian Cattle Dogs. My favorite part is birth day!

𝐂𝐣’𝐬 ‘𝐍 𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐱 𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐞’𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐰𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐔𝐩 “𝓚ℋ𝓘𝓝𝓞” AKC from Champion lineage. 💫
Khino first came home on the first of December, ‘23. Since then it’s been about bonding with my other 3 and learning our routine. In the next couple weeks we’ll be doing basic training and I hope that by March he enters his first show. Today we learned he’s completely genetically clear! And our goal to use him as a stud late next year are still on. 🙏🏽

A P’Update’ from miss Paisley, her sire is our Rocky & Dam our Sky. Looking beautiful and thrilled! This litter had all of its ears up by 5-6 weeks. 😍 They’ve all stayed on the shorter and stockier side and have been an affectionate playful bunch.
Just look at how happy she is on her new ranch! 🥹

Happy New Year Followers& Friends!
I want to start off by saying thank you to one of our best years to date.
I have met some great mentors, created some beautiful relationships and my program has produced healthy and beautiful puppies! My goal for 2023 was simple; do better than 2022 and I TOTALLY did! Smarter decisions were made that I’m proud of. 🙌🏽 That’s not to say I am perfect, but instead constantly trying to figure out how to improve the program and trying to better myself as a person.

I appreciate EACH and EVERY one of you! Whether you’ve personally approached me or watched me from a distance, any impact i have made big or small is a big deal to me - this breed is a BIG deal to me and the people who share my love for the breed as well.
As of January 1st, I’ll be a lot less active on my page and shying away from moderating in Facebook groups. I’ll be focusing on my gooddog profile and instagram learning about the IG world as well as the AKC world with my new AKC addition KHINO. Obedience classes, conformation classes, herd training, hips and elbow X-rays is what I hope to conquer. I will also have A2 Australian Cattle Dog trucker hats, shirts and collars merch coming soon. Last but not least I want to spend more time with my three beautiful children & being outdoors with my dog pack of three (soon to be four) leaving less time for electronics.
Thanks to everyone and thank you to those of you that have fueled me with the motivation to move these mountains, i hope everyone had an amazing 2024! 😘
- Ana Marenco

ASDR/NAPR A2 Australian Cattle Dogs’s ROCKY left today to his co-owner’s home. He will be residing there while he gets trained on cattle and spending time with their clear and gorgeous female BLU. This handsome and genetically clear stud will be back in April. We couldn’t be more proud of our dogs, their health and their temperament.
Their photos, not AI enhanced, natural and in their natural habitat. Their registration and their accomplishments.
Many programs are doing well out there but a few are doing it with integrity.

Last little cowboy left, now reserved! 🙌🏽
These puppies are off to their new adventures mid Jan! 🤍
