Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
We raise our puppies in our lounge room with all normal household noises. When they are 4-5 weeks, they start to integrate between playpens Inside and outside. The puppies also interact with our cat and older workdogs - so they become very confident and know how to socialise.
Health
Our breeding dogs are DNA tested and regularly visit the vets for check ups. My puppies and parents are given a premium diet. We have access to a vet 24hrs a day. He visits on property and is across any issues as they arise. Puppies are vaccinated and microchipped during their comprehensive check at 6 weeks of…

About the Breeder
A little about us
We both grew up around animals: horses, dogs, cattle, chooks, and ducks. You name it, we have had it as a pet. Both our mothers bred & showed Bull Terriers and we have both worked around animals all our lives. We have managed cattle properties from 2000acres to 25000acres.
Why we got involved in breeding
We started breeding working dogs to use on the farm. Linda trained as a professional groomer in 2015 and has been grooming ever since. We wanted to change our breeding from working dogs to pets, as we purchased our first Toy Poodle in 2015 and he is the basis of our breeding program.
Our special touch
Animals are in our blood and our puppies are such an integral part of our lives. Our son is our resident "puppy thief". If there are any babies not where they are supposed to be, he will have them. It does cause some anxiety but it is all worth it. They are well socialised with humans and other animals. They turn…
