If relevant for the breed, it also includes running DNA tests to confirm the dog is not a genetic carrier of hereditary eye diseases, such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). It includes breeders who have participated in the Australian Canine Eye Scheme (ACES).

About the Breeder

A little about us

I adore border terriers. Apart from sleeping on my couch after a busy morning each day, my border's take part in dog sports like scent work, earth dog and lure racing. We also do obedience training and conformation showing. I work with dogs as a career, so my borders lead a pretty amazing life.

Why we got involved in breeding

I fell in love with the breed when I worked in the UK after finishing school.

Our special touch

As I work from home and in a career with dogs.... my borders are given a wonderful start in life. Like many fellow breeder's of the little brown dog, I am super passionate.
