Sire: Ashland's Gem Of Complete Integrity
Dam: Herd About Kindred Spirits
Artigan is our new sire and we're very excited to have him around! He's a sweet, if goofy, boy. The sort who, when he wants cuddles, jumps into my lap and smears himself into me as if he can't possibly be close enough when cuddling. Artigan loves all sorts of outdoor games, although he has a tendency during games of tug-of-war to cheat by trying to cut the rope with his teeth... Cheeky! He gets along perfectly with all animals and plays games with our little niece. He is a very submissive dog and lets all the other dogs take his chew toys. He really wishes the cat was his best friend but the cat has no patience for his definition of cuddling.

OFA Hip Prelim: Good

Linderland's Let the music play (aka Resolution)
AKC Miniature American Shepherd
17" / 28lbs.
Blue merle male with brown eyes
PRA/prcd/HC - Clear by Parentage
MDR1 - mutant/normal
Dam: Linderland's Lyric
Sire: Int Ch. Linderland's Chauncey
Lines: Bluegrass, Bayshore
Resolution is an exceptionally gentle and quiet dog. He's graceful and athletic but not particularly high energy for an aussie. There was a point while we were cleaning crates, we let all the aussies run around and have their fun. Resolution ran around for a little bit before coming over to our side to take a nap for the rest of our cleaning time.
He has many international champions in his pedigree, including his parents.

Waldfrieden'S Lahndo Calrizzian
AKC Miniature American Shepherd
30lb,
Black tri with brown eyes and a natural bobtail.
PRA/prcd - clear by parentage
HC - clear by parentage
MDR1 - clear
Sire: Ashland's Man of Valor
Dam: Waldfrieden's Freedom Piper (aka Pippy)
Lahndo is the cuddliest dog we own, and also the most expressive. You can always tell what's on her mind and what her opinion is of something. She loves getting attention and sleeping on the bed. She's great with other animals and loves going into stores with us. When we go out to exercise, she often spends her time just relaxing in the shade, watching the others. Pretty low energy in terms of aussies, and we often catch her watching television.

HC - clear by parentage
MDR1 - clear by parentage
(clear across the board by parentage)
Sire: Ashland's Man of Valor
Dam: Waldfrieden's Bailey's Glamour Shot (aka Shatzi)
Kiri is the smartest of our aussies, there's no puzzle that she can't solve in mere minutes! She can be wary of strangers, giving a cursory bark to alert us, but warms up quickly. Especially if you have a tennis ball in hand... She absolutely adores fetch and will drop everything else for a good game of it! She has a mellow personality and spends much of her day napping, but she's always up for a game if you've got one! She gets along swimmingly with other animals (including cats and chickens).

She's a strong and brave girl, the first one to approach a loud sound.
