A striking red-bi, it's our belief that this 16" girl is one of the nicest examples of the Miniature Australian Shepherd breed around. She is blessed with wonderful alertness, an enthusiastic personality and an incredible presence. Razz's hips are OFA Good, elbows are OFA Normal, her eyes are CERF Normal and she is MDR 1 Mutant/Normal. She has proven to be a wonderful Mom-producing some outstanding progeny. You can see many of her past puppies on our puppy page.
Stormy is the daughter of our foundation bitch Razz and has wonderful potential. She scored a 2nd and two 4th place finishes in the Bred-By Bitch class at the 2008 Mini-Aussie Nationals.
In April of 2008, Stormy scored big at IABCA show in Albany, Oregon winning Best of Breed, Winner's Bitch, Best of Winners and Bred By in addition to her National and International adult
Championships.
Stormy is just under 16", MDR Normal/Normal, CERF Normal and her hips are in the 80th percentile according to Penn-Hip.
2009 has been another great year for Huntington. Besides siring his first litter (5 of 6 were show quality according to Pat Hastings). He is excelling in agility and was a hit in his only conformation show scoring two Winners Dog and two Reserve Winners Dog ribbons in the Fall IABCA show at Ridgefield, Washington. His first daughter, Sparrow, also did well at the same show being put up as Best of Winners once and Winners Bitch twice.
In September 2008, he finished second in the nation as Most Versatile Aussie in the NAMASCUSA competition at the 2008 Mini Nationals-to learn more about the MVA adventure click here. In October, he earned his IABCA International Championship at a conformation show in Enumclaw, Washington. His championship conformation plus herding, agility and rally-O skills make him an ideal measure of the versatility of the Aussie breed. Huntington's Penn Hip was above the 99th percentile! CERF Clear and MDR 1 is Normal/Normal.
Thanks so much to McFinley Aussies sharing this once-in-a-lifetime dog with us. He is the perfect guy to stand at the foundation of our breeding program.
Ribbon is a strikingly-marked little blue merle with the classic Patchworks look. Her pedigree includes many of our favorite mini Aussies. Ribbon is nearly 14 inches (on the small side like her mom-Patchworks Delilah) and is proving to be very biddable. She is maturing into a fantastic agility dog and she was the 2009 Novice Obedience Champion at the very competitive Deschutes County Fair here in Central Oregon. In October '09, Ribbon earned her International Championship at the IABCA show in Ridgefield, Washington. MDR 1 test is Mutant/Normal.
Casper is an easy-going, well-built puppy that we hope has a bright future. He got off to a great start in February 2010, celebrating his first birthday by winning his Junior National and Junior International Championships at the IABCA show in Ridgefield, Washington. Casper is CERF Clear and his MDR 1 in Normal/Normal.
Bumboo has the kind of versatility Aussie lovers dream of. She was a natural herder from the git-go on ducks and is now working with sheep regularly and keeping the chickens in line daily. She started agility training in December 08. Her rock-solid conformation will serve her well. At just four months of age, Bumboo was already a two-time Best in Show Puppy and earned her IABCA Jr. International conformation title. In October of 2009, Bumboo returned to the ring scoring Reserve Best In Show Puppy honors and earning her International Championship. Her CERF is normal and her MDR 1 is Normal/Normal. We are proud to co-own this little champion with her breeders, Deb and Dee from McFinley Aussies in Olympia, Washington.
We've been waiting for "Sparrow" for years. She's a third generation Dusty Boots progeny. Her sire is our foundation stud, Huntington and her dam is Silver Storm (both shown below). Part of our most anticipated litter to date (5 of 6 were evaluated as show quality by Pat Hastings), Sparrow won her Jr. International Championship at her first show in October 2009. Despite her conservative black-bi coloring, her quality shined through with a Best of Winners ribbon plus being put up as Winners Bitch twice and Reserve Winners Bitch on two more occasions. Her CERF is normal and her MDR 1 is Normal/Normal. Smart as they come, Sparrow is already enjoying her weekly agility lessons at Desert Sage Agility in Bend, OR.
