A little about us

Hi, I’m Mel, and I’m the proud founder of Oakwood Channel Australian Cobberdogs. My journey into breeding started with my beautiful foundation dog, Luna. Luna is more than just a dog to me – she’s my shadow, my best friend, and truly the most wonderful companion I could ever ask for.

Why we got involved in breeding

The bond I share with Luna, and the deep connection she has with my family, inspired me to bring the joy of this amazing breed to other families. I’ve seen firsthand the incredible impact Australian Cobberdogs can have, and it’s that love and passion that drives me to share this breed with others. Luna will always…

Our special touch

At Oakwood Channel, my special touch is all about creating a truly personalized, family-centered experience for both our puppies and their new families. I pour my heart into every part of our breeding program, ensuring that each puppy is raised in a warm, loving environment where they’re part of the family from day…
