TOLAZRUN

AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS

About Us

Tolazrun Australian Shepherds was first established in 2004 and we have been involved in Australian Shepherds for approximately 10 years.   We have never been in a rush to jump from first time Aussie owner to breeder, preferring to take our time to learn as much as we can about this wonderful breed before taking the next step. During this time we have had one litter under the Jackotrades prefix and made many contacts with breeders in Australia, New Zealand, the United States and the United Kingdom.

All of our dogs compete in the show ring, obedience, agility and all are tested on livestock.  As you can imagine, it takes a lot of time to work, train and compete in these forms of dog sports and activities, consequently we will only ever have a small number of dogs ourselves because each dog is given individual attention and is part of our family.

We will never be a prolific producer of Australian Shepherds.  We will only ever produce a litter when we want something to keep for ourselves.  Our goal is to produce dogs that are both sound in structure and temperament.  What first attracted us to this breed was their versatility and their wonderful temperaments.  This along with correct structure is the goal of our breeding program.

Tolazrun Australian Shepherds will always put quality ahead of quantity.  So if you would like to buy an Australian Shepherd from us you may need to wait a while and we are very choosey as to who we will sell a puppy to.  Don't be surprised if when you visit us you feel like we are interviewing you, we are, but in the nicest possible way.  Australian Shepherds are working dogs and are not for everyone.  Purchasing a dog is a 10 to 15 year commitment and we want to ensure that we can match our puppies up with the right owner(s).

We are located in the small picturesque village of Pitt Town in North-West Sydney.  We are lucky enough to live on 13 acres and our dogs are free to run throughout the grounds during the day.

If you would like any more information about us or our dogs please contact us and we will be happy to answer any of your questions.
