Welcome to Rock Ridge Aussies!

About Rock Ridge Aussies!
We have been breeding for right around 12 years and l have such a love for the Aussie breed. We raise
Australian Shepherds and I also run a line of Aussie Borders which over the years has been more sought after. Our Aussie crosses intertwine the Aussie and the Border creating the Aussie Border. All of our dogs are either genetically clear by parentage or have had their own genetic health testing done. OFAs are done on our dogs at the age appropriate time. We take pride in our quality dogs that are able to go in any direction! I have dogs that have gone into nursing homes for therapy, dogs titled in FETCH, fast CAT, Trick dog titles and Canine Good Citizen and more! The Aussie Border can be registered with the AKC under Canine Partners, while our Aussies will be AKC or AKC/ASCA registered. We produce a few anticipated special litters each year. I take extra care in evaluating each puppy's personality and making you as the new owner informed on what I'm seeing so we can make sure to suggest a puppy that will be exactly or close to what you are looking for and where they will thrive the best! I screen each family that applys for one of our puppies to make sure you are familiar with the breed and are aware of what is required for a herding dog to thrive best in its environment.
​
My focus is producing healthy and sound puppies. Aiming for exceptional temperament and and preparing them with a strong immune system that will benefit their health for years to come.
All puppies will be regularly dewormed and will see a vet for a 6 week checkup and receive age approriate Vaccinations.
We keep all full natural tails on all our Aussie Borders but do docking of tails on our AKC/ASCA Aussies to be kept to breed standard.
All of our puppies receive ENS & ESI training from days 3-19. please see our EDUCATION tab for more info on this. I also use a combination of Puppy Culture and BadAss Breeders curriculum. ​I love each of these pups as if they were going to be here forever! I love to stay in contact with as many families as we can from all our past litters and I am always there for the life of the puppy! They will be very well socialized to a multitude of things such as our children, our dogs, horses, cows, pigs and chickens as well as different sounds, textures and the daily hustle and busyness of a full house..
Our dogs are our family pets and all puppies are raised in our home with their parents. We have lots of outside time when weather permits but I feel them being raised in the home is so beneficial for their development to being an indoor pet.
Upon weaning our puppies will receive NuVet Plus which is an immune support vitamin and mineral supplement which we highly recommend keeping your puppy on especially during transition from our home to yours. Their immune systems take a toll when under stress and this will offer their immune system an extra boost! Puppies have a very immature immune systems for the first six months or longer so it is a great idea to help protect them. We can help you get these ordered before your puppy comes home. We believe in this so much that Rock Ridge Aussies has become a distributor! They will also get raw milk from our cow if she is currently in milk and will have access to raw meaty bones and Dr. Harvey's Canine health.
​
I know bringing home a new puppy can be overwhelming which is why I take care to start basic obedience,
potty training as well as introduction to crate training.
If you would like to be put on a waitlist please fill out an application and a deposit will hold your spot for a future litter.
I keep an e-mail contact list that gets notified before puppies are put on Facebook or our website.
