Our Breeding Practices

Behaviour and socialisation

I do early-age training with my pups, feed the very best of diets, and ensure they are raised with lots of toys, space, a happy mum, and tons of love and attention.

Health

All our puppies come with a full C5 vaccination and heartworm prevention. Their parents are also hip and elbow scored, eye-tested as well as DNA-tested. We feed a great diet of Stay Loyal with supplemented raw diet for an optimal start to life. We also provide a lifetime rehoming policy and hereditary health guarantee.

Home environment

Pups are born and raised in our home, then safely explore the natural environment, with play, daily human love and attention as they get older. All my dogs reside in the house with me. We are located on the north coast of NSW.

stethoscope iconPhysical Test

These breeders have had x-rays taken on their breeding dogs to assess the quality of their elbow joints. Dogs with very low ‘elbow scores’ are less likely to develop elbow problems in the future and less likely to pass hereditary elbow problems on to their puppies.

stethoscope iconPhysical Test

An eye certificate means the breeder has had their breeding dogs examined by a veterinary ophthalmologist, to confirm they are not affected by any eye conditions which may be passed down genetically to their puppies. 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

Hi, I’m Jenine from Tarraray! I breed minimally as an ANKC dog breeder and now have a small show team that I’m having a lot of fun with. I cannot thank my friends enough for their support - without them I don’t think I’d be doing what I love! Now it's just me and the fur kids enjoying life and travelling the country.…

Why we got involved in breeding

My first Belgian was in 1998 from Murrybel South Australia (Darce) and was soon followed by Mirribandi Merlin’s Magic. My first Tervueren came soon after in 2000 with Tervailles Ali Baba (Sprite). Since then I’ve had some amazing dogs who have given me so much love and pleasure and help start my amazing Tarraray…
