The Australian Shepherd is truly a remarkable breed. Aussies
pretty much think their whole purpose in life is to please
you. Extremely intelligent and devoted, they are true companions
in the best sense. Aussies have so much heart.
To be a successful breeder, one must have purpose,
vision,
and passion.
PURPOSE: I believe our purpose as breeders, is to further as well
as preserve these wonderful breed characteristics. This also includes
a duty to pass this on to the next generation of breeders.
VISION: A true course or map of where you are going, a plan, and also
a realistic assessment of where one is at. If things come up to steer
me off course, I can then remain focused. I have a mental image of
my ideal Aussie both male and female. This is not only in appearance
and overall style but also in the temperament, personality, and health.
In my mind there is a clear distinction between temperament and personality
and I want both to be outstanding. I believe this is crucial to the
endeavor and it dictates their ability to contribute to the lives of
their people.
PASSION: This is the spice in life and what keeps me going. There
is not an Aussie here at Windrift who I don’t think is happy
and a joy to live with. Otherwise, why have dogs or any other animal
for that matter?! Each thinks he or she is “mommy’s favorite”.
I am very passionate their mental attitude and how the puppies are
raised to become this awesome friend and family member. I feel each
Windrift Aussie reflects this commitment.
