Wanting a puppy doesn't mean you should get one.

Daisy's humans first contacted me a few years ago to arrange training for the puppy they were about to add to their family. But, as things progressed, some alarm bells started ringing about the breeder. In the end there were just too many red flags and so Daisy's humans made the heartbreaking decision to step away.

After a break and a search for a new breeder a puppy was again in the offing but the universe threw a spanner in the works meaning that Daisy's humans wouldn't be able to devote the time that a new puppy deserves so again they decided not to proceed.

Fast forward to a few months ago when the stars aligned and Daisy joined the family. And the third time was the charm! A great puppy from a reputable, ethical breeder and the time and energy to devote to training her, spending time with her and getting to know her.

When you decide to get a puppy you have to think with your head; not just your heart. You have to ask yourself whether you can truly offer a dog what they need - time, attention, commitment, security, understanding, a stable home. And whether your choice of breeder is an ethical one.

Because, as Daisy's wonderful humans understood, it's not just about what you want, no matter how much you want it. It's about what you will bring to the dog's life; not just what they will add to yours.

🌟 Miss Paris Shines in the Show Ring! 🌟

Last weekend, Miss Paris "Dapsen Game On" and I headed to Durack, where she earned a lovely Baby of Breed win! 🐾✨

This past weekend, she had more adventures with her Queensland mum, Karla, at the Combined Northern Rivers Kennel Club Shows. Paris strutted her stuff and secured:

🐾 Officially Introducing Our Newest Trublumate Family Member! 🐾

We're thrilled to introduce Dapsen Game On, aka Paris! A huge thank you to Aimee Petersen for trusting us with this little superstar. We’re beyond excited to welcome Paris into our family, and we’re looking forward to an exciting future together.

Paris had her show debut this past weekend (while I was busy with our annual Trublumate gathering), and what a debut it was! We owe a massive thank you to her Queensland "mum" Karla Lacey, who expertly guided Paris around the ring. Paris took 2nd in Baby Sweepstakes on two of the three days and clinched Baby of Breed on the third day, competing against some incredible pups.
Thank you again, Aimee and Karla, for all you've done for Paris. She’s a testament to your breeding and handling. Here’s to many more adventures with this beautiful girl! ✨

A Breeder's Hopes

There are a lot of posts out there about how to find a reputable breeder, but not enough is said about what breeders look and hope for in a future puppy owner. The most important point I have to make is this: That for those of us who have invested so much in our chosen breed and our lines, the sale of a puppy is NOT a one-time business transaction, but the beginning of a ten- to fifteen-year relationship between not just dog and owner, but also the breeder and buyer/owner.

I get a lot of short inquiries that go like this: "Is the red merle male available?" I don't know from this if they want a dog just to hang out on the couch with or one that will hike the Appalachian Trail by their side.

I can't answer which puppy is available before eight weeks because I don't place puppies solely by color and haven't evaluated them yet. I understand having a preference (I have my own), but color is superficial. If I placed puppies that way, I'd be getting a lot of them back later.

Caring breeders know that what matters most is whether the potential home is the right match for a particular puppy. The personality and energy level of the puppy matter a hundred times more than its looks. If I place a puppy with someone based solely on color and it ends up being a terrible mismatch as far as the owner's needs vs. the pup's personality, then eventually the novelty of a fuzzy, cute puppy wears off and you have an unhappy owner and an unappreciated dog butting heads.

A caring breeder wants to know you're committed to the dog for its lifetime and will keep in touch with questions, brags about graduation from obedience class, and pictures of your dog along on the family vacation. What you tell me about yourself upon introduction can make all the difference going forward because it lets me know if you are what I, as a breeder, am looking for in a home. It’s more like an interview or a first date rather than a simple business transaction. You are communicating to me what YOU have to offer this puppy.

That future relationship between breeder and buyer is a big part of what makes breeding worthwhile. It can also be what makes it a nightmare if a breeder isn’t selective enough. Breeders need to know you're prepared for and committed to proper training and socialization and that your new puppy will be an integral part of your family for its lifetime. After all, we're letting go of the babies that we've poured sometimes generations of planning into. It's not a decision we take lightly.

In contrast to those window shopping for a specific color, when I get an inquiry that goes into detail about the potential owner's home and family, why they want an Aussie or this particular litter, what plans they have for a future pup (companion, service animal, running buddy, sport dog, etc.), something about their current or past pets... then I get a much better *feel* for whether they might be a good fit, as well as how good they might be at communicating with me in the future. Those things are what matter to a caring, reputable breeder.

I treasure all the wonderful owners who've come along in our three-plus decades in Australian Shepherds. Some have become very good friends. But some have also taught me what I don’t want or what isn’t right for this breed or my dogs. Above all, I want to feel that any potential owner will love and adore that dog not for how many "pretty dog" comments they might get in public, but that they will value the loyalty of that dog, the things they did with it, and the relationship they developed with it, just as we all do with any true friend.

Caring breeders don't just fill orders. They pair you up with a lifetime partner.

🎉🐾Time flies! Our Sage x Jethro pups are already 7 weeks old.

They visited the canine ophthalmologist and completed individual temperament testing this past week and we are less than a week away from making our final decisions.

I'll be honest, I'm not sure where the last 7 weeks have gone! These 4 adorable tris have been such a pleasure to raise 💖 Full of s***k and attitude while still enjoying cuddles, these kids have had a busy week with car trips, vet visit, formal temperament testing, nail trims, a bath, and exposure to new sights, sounds, crate training, toys, dogs, and people.

As we cherish the limited time left with these cuties, we'll start preparing their going-home bags and continue to love, snuggle and play with them.

Sharing this so you can follow their journey.🐾

Better late than never! We apologize for the delay in providing the puppies' 6-week update, but it's been a hectic weekend for all of us.

Our little cuties had their vet checks and passed with flying colors! They received their vaccines, got microchipped, and had busy days filled with car rides, trying new foods, meeting new people, getting their nails trimmed, worming, and lots of playtime.

These little furballs are also getting used to the big wide world outside, from lawnmowers to new furry friends! 🌱🐶 And the adventures don't stop there - next week, they're off to see the Canine Ophthalmologist for an eye check and formal temperament testing. 🐾👁️

We're absolutely loving watching their unique personalities blossom! 🌟 If you've been eyeing these cuties and are still interested, now's the time to reach out - decisions will be made in the next 12 days. Don't miss out on welcoming one of these sweethearts into your home! 🏡💕

We're excited to share our journey with you, so stay tuned for more updates!

Wow, how time flies! Miss Sage's babies are already 5 weeks old!!

They've had such a busy week—trying new foods, spending more time away from mum, meeting Aunties, Uncles, and grandparents through the fence. They've played with a British bulldog, posed for photos, enjoyed playtime with our 3 kids, and experienced lots of different sounds including fireworks, mowers, and trucks as part of our puppy culture protocols.

In the next couple of weeks, we'll have our vet visit for microchips, vaccines, and a check-up with the Canine ophthalmologist to check their eyes. We'll also be doing formal temperament testing.

We still have a couple of pups looking for their perfect homes. Please note, no merles are available, only tris.

Don't miss our Meet and Greet day on the 29th 🥰

🌟 Drum roll, please... Introducing our awesome foursome! 🌟

Sage has been a fantastic first-time mum, raising these adorable little cuties. She blessed us with one boy and three girls. These sweet babies have made incredible progress with lots of Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), puppy culture, and daily handling from me and the kids.

They've explored both indoors and outdoors, experienced different surfaces, noises, faces, toys, and hands, and are about to start trying real food.

Stay tuned to follow their journey! Pending assessments, we may have one or two available for their forever homes. 💖

Copied from a friend.
YOU WONDER HOW BREEDERS CAN ALLOW OUR RETIRED DOGS TO GO TO NEW HOMES,HERE IS THE BEST EXPLANATION I HAVE SEEN.

Yes, its hard to let go of dogs we have raised & loved. But, keeping them and becoming a “dog hoarder” is not a great life for them or us. I have forged great friendships w people who have my retired dogs. They are part of my family. 🩷

I hope you understand more after reading this. “I copied this from a friend. “

Every so often, I see a question popping up about whether or not placing retired breeding animals is ethical.
To people who aren’t breeders, it often looks bad or feels icky... like breeders are just tossing away dogs once they’ve been used to produce puppies. Let me give you a different perspective...
I receive messages and see posts from the owners of my retired show and breeding dogs. While their lives are comfortable with me, they now get to live an incredibly loved and spoiled life, many times as an only dog with a family that adores them.
Different isn’t good or bad, it’s just different. They live a different life with their families than they would have with me. They are content, satisfied, and loved with me; they continue to be all of those things, but with their very own people and without having to share those people with a pack of other dogs.
The day I let one of my retired dogs go to a family is HARD. I cry when I let them go... I look forward to updates on birthdays, “gotcha” days, and out of the blue every few months. I see how they are loved beyond measure, and I am grateful every day that my “retired” dogs have been blessed into the lives of the people that love them just as much as I ever did. I’m glad it could be one of mine that they love.
Quality breeders don’t rehome retired breeding dogs because it’s easy. We do it in spite of how hard it is on us because it’s what’s best for them.

🎉🐾Wow, where has the time gone! Our pups are 7 weeks old today. They visited the canine ophthalmologist and passed their eye exams with flying colors! We also completed individual temperament testing and are less than a week away from making our final decisions.

In the past week, our pups have enjoyed household time with kids handling them and experiencing the noises and activities of a busy home. They've been exposed to more stimuli, tasted different foods, and played with various toys – crunchy bottles for the win! They've hung out with their great grandma Flame, Diva, and Tigga, and met our British bulldog Tilly.💖✨

This litter, like all others, has been a joy to raise, and I will miss them when they're gone. Final decisions will be made on Monday, May 27th. Although we don't have any merles available, we may have a couple of precious black tris looking for their forever homes. 🏡🐾
