This is the page where I'll describe myself in more detail.

We are is located in the foothills of the beautiful Sacramento Mountains in New Mexico. Also known as the Tularosa Basin.

We are truly blessed to serve an AWESOME God. He is first and foremost in all that we do.
Animals of all kinds have always had a special place in our hearts. A passion that we most enjoy is raising Horses and Australian Shepherds. They are the two most wonderful creatures in our book. They are what help us to relax, unwind and enjoy life.

Aussies are awesome dogs! We cannot say enough good things about them. They continue to amaze us in every aspect. Unlike other dogs who just want to play with other dogs, an Aussie is usually more interested in what their human is doing. Which is pretty typical in an Aussie. They would much rather be with their people doing chores then playing with the other dogs. They crave the human companionship.

About Aussies:
The Australian Shepherd is an intelligent, medium-sized dog of strong herding and guardian instincts. He is also a delightful and loyal companion and a great family dog. He loves to be part of the daily hustle and bustle anything to be with his beloved master. He is easy to train, easy to housebreak, and eager to please.

Aussies have been used as seeing-eye dogs, as utility dogs to the physically handicapped, hearing aid dogs, police and narcotics dogs and search and rescue dogs. In the northern areas they have also been used as sled dogs. Many go with their masters as volunteers to children's homes and nursing homes to do therapy work. Truly, the Australian Shepherd is a highly versatile dog.

The Aussie (as he is lovingly nicknamed) is a very active dog that needs exercise on a daily basis to keep him from becoming bored or frustrated and developing destructive habits. Because of their high energy level, combined with high intelligence, Aussies need to be given a "job" to perform, be it shepherding the children, protecting the house, herding livestock or competing in dog events. . We take pride in our dogs and look forward to sharing with you our love and passion for the Aussie!

Thank you for stopping in. Hope you enjoy!
