Welcome to Studio Aussies!

I am a second generation Australian Shepherd breeder. My love for this breed began at an early age. Growing up always having Aussies around was quite a privilege. My mom has been very successful with her show dogs over the last 25 years- she even produced the first Aussie to win the Herding Group at Westminster. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve the whelping and raising of puppies.

Studio Aussies got an official start in early 2023, though I had been a part of the dog show community under the umbrella of my moms kennel, Vinelake Aussies, for many years prior. Vinelake dogs comprise the foundation of my breeding program. My mom is a valuable asset and a wealth of knowledge. We work together to produce wonderful dogs.

I am actively involved in AKC and ASCA conformation and agility, and travel throughout country each year to attend dog shows and visit with fellow Aussie fanciers. My dogs are mostly breeder/owner handled by me through their show careers, an accomplishment I am extremely proud of. We pride ourselves on breeding dogs that are not only structurally correct, but mentally sound and intelligent companions.

All of our dogs are fully health tested, including genetic panels and OFA hip/elbow x-rays.
