Breeding is a serious endeavour and litters at MountainAsh are bred occasionally and selectively. We are dedicated to producing beautiful, healthy, well-adjusted Australian Shepherds for active companionship and all levels of competition. Each litter is a special event and a tremendous amount of care and expertise go into the raising of MountainAsh Australian Shepherds. Our breeding program takes into consideration many factors, including optimum health, temperament, structure, and versatility. Breeding dogs are conformation Champions and/or performance titled with health clearances. Litters at MountainAsh are registered with the Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) and Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA), and eligible for registration with the American Kennel Club. An adolescent puppy or adult dog with advanced training may be available on occasion.
We take great care in placing our Australian Shepherds in forever homes with discerning and responsible individuals. Our puppies are evaluated from day one and placed based on a wide variety of things including temperament, natural instinct, and suitability. Although our puppies are all of the same breed they are individuals with unique personalities. If you seek a companion dog your top two concerns should be health and temperament. A well bred, well raised puppy is so much more than coat or eye colour. Because puppies are not custom ordered, we cannot guarantee that a particular litter will have puppies of a specific coat or eye colour. For this reason, reservations are not accepted based on colour.
MountainAsh Australian Shepherds are raised in our home and in a family setting. We are proud to raise our Australian Shepherds naturally with the understanding that conventional methods are sometimes necessary. We strongly believe that naturally rearing promotes health and longevity. Puppies receive early neurological stimulation, and lots of love and socialization as they mature. Our puppies are exposed to a variety of sights, sounds, animals and other stimuli. Puppies are raised on a holistic raw diet, receive a veterinary health check, fecal exams (worming if required), age appropriate vaccination, microchip, and eye examination by a licensed veterinary ophthalmologist. Our puppies are regularly handled, bathed, groomed and have their nails trimmed with a Dremel tool. Puppies are also well started on their crate and house training before going to their forever homes. This ensures our puppies have the best possible start in life, and will set them up to thrive as adult dogs.
