Larkwood Austrailan Shepherds
Australian Shepherd, Indiana
We are a small hobby kennel located in Marshall, Indiana. Our Australian Shepherds are registered with AKC and ASCA. We mainly compete in ASCA events several weekends a year, but we attend a few AKC events as well.
Our goal is to better the breed with each litter that we produce. Health and temperament are our priorities. We want our puppies to be happy and healthy companions.
We complete full health testing before breeding any of our dogs. OFA hips, elbows and annual eye clearances. Plus we complete genetic testing.
All of our Aussies live in the home with our family. Puppies are raised in the house so they experience so much from an early age. This helps them be well socialized and adapt well in their new homes. We raise our puppies guided by Avidog. We are an AKC Bred by H.E.A.R.T. participant. We are a lifetime member of ASCA and our kennel is registered with ASCA.
