Although I have owned Aussies since 1955, I didn't start
          breeding until 1995. I have been breeding healthy, loving
          and intelligent Aussies ever since.

          We try to breed for "family members" (aussies that will
          become part of your family). Our aussies are so intelligent
          that they need to communicate and interact with their
          owners. If they are prevented or deprived from this
          communication, they will become frustrated and lonely.
          This will usually result in some objectionable behavior, in
          an attempt to "get your attention". It usually works, good
          or bad. If you can't spend a lot of time with these dogs,
          look for another breed and breeder. They like to have a
          job, whatever it may be. Herding, watch dog, running
          partner, frisbee, fly ball, agility, and obedience, are all
          ways for our aussie to show his love and desire to serve
          "his Master". Some dogs are so "correct" to the
          standard they could be an excellent "show dog". Even
          "show dogs" have a job to do.

          We try to breed for the most perfect dogs we can get.
          Confirmation and championship blood lines are very
          important to the continuation of the "breed standard".
          We additionally search for "parents" that exhibit high
          intelligence and even temperament in an effort to provide
          a well rounded companion for your home.

          When we sell a puppy a good home is our top priority.
          Prior to purchasing one of our dogs you will be asked a
          lot of questions. Our dogs are special to us and we want
          to be sure that they are going to a good home. One that
          will suit their temperament and yours. We expect letters,
          post cards, pictures and phone calls about how your new
          puppy is doing. This means the good and bad. This
          feedback lets us know how we are doing as breeders.

          Remember, this is a lifetime purchase and it is through
          sickness and health, richer and poorer, and faithful to
          the end. You will not be disappointed, but BLESSED!


          TRI-POWER AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS,
          ARE BREEDERS OF BEST FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS.


          Just a note:

          We are often called by people looking for puppies.
          Occasionally we feel that our dogs are not suited to a
          particular home. We are in touch with other excellent
          breeders, who might have just the puppy for you and
          we will refer you to them. You still have to do your
          home work in choosing, but these would be good leads.
