**We expect Emma and Amy to produce pups in the spring, maybe around May, so if you are in the market, give us a jingle. **
MVR Masked Blue Cisco Roper
Kennel name: Cissy
Cissy would love to be a lap dog, but she's a little too big for that role. Her greatest job is US. The first time she gently took my hand in her mouth and stood between me and the tractor, I wondered what she was up to. I soon discovered that she was trying to protect me from what she decided was danger. She has done that many times since. As all Aussies do, Cissy needs a job. She has made it her job to round up the Guinea Hens and keep them in a neat little circle in the yard and she readily volunteers when the horses need moving or coaxing. As the eternal mother, she spends her time in the pasture with the new colts, just staring or washing them. She apparently has made it clear to the moms that she's no threat, as none of them ever push her away. She has given us several litters of fantastic puppies who all are stamped with her wonderful personality. She is being retired now from our breeding program, but I don't expect her to quit volunteering for jobs, however.
Cisco's Blue Sapphire
Kennel name: Sophie
Sophie is one of Cissy's daughters and she looks just like mom. She is also Blue's daughter. Like her mom, she becomes a little deaf when we ask her to kennel up. She'd much rather stay out with us all the time, following closely at our heels and doing whatever job she deems worthy of doing.
Aune's Emerald Rose
Kennel name: Emma
Emma is a beautiful blue merle with copper trim and one blue eye. She is a very sweet dog and loves attention (who doesn't?). She seems the most placid of the group except when she's working and then she's the most aggressive. The first bad habit she had to break was pushing the horses and then grabbing on a tail and getting a free ride. After Magnum gave her a shove with his back leg, she gave that joy riding up as a lost cause. (Magnum is only 16.2 hands!)
Skullcreek Moonstruck Amethyst
Kennel name: Amy
Amy came to us a year ago. She's a black tri with copper and white trim and a pedigree that is out of this world. Her ancestors have done it all in the show ring and Amy has the looks, character and movement to be a top show dog also. She's a real people pleaser and fun to be around.
Bonnie is a mini Aussie. She is a blue merle with the most incredible copper trim I've ever seen. She also has white markings. She was also at the same training facility in Nebraska where we found Beau. She has that sturdy body and is not willowy or lanky looking. She has the most incredible disposition. Bonnie is the most persistent of all the dogs and she is the one who can figure out any puzzle you put in front of her-- as long as the reward is to get with her people! Bonnie's pedigree is still in process.
