BriarRidge Australian Shepherds

Gates, NC

We are a small hobby/preservation breeder of Australian Shepherds located in North East North Carolina along the Virginia border. All of our dogs are AKC/ASCA registered. It takes a tremendous amount of time in the planning and whelping of each litter. Each puppy is treated with the same amount of love and care from before birth to the time they leave to their new homes. Puppies are raised inside our home and are well socialized before going to their new homes. We provide all owners with advice and knowledge during the lifetime of their puppies. All of our adult dogs are Certified with the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals for passing hip and elbow scores at 2 years of age and their eyes are cleared annually. Additionally, our dogs have other genetic testing done such as MDR1 and HSF4. We always welcome potential new owners to come to visit our home after speaking on the phone to meet our dogs and see how they are raised.
