Stud Services

We do offer our males for stud. Usually we require a stud fee but depending on the female, we may take pick of litter as payment - at our discretion. Females must be brought here for the breeding. They can visit every day or they can stay here and be picked up after a confirmed breeding. We have well shaded kennels with roofs to prevent jumping, reinforced chain link to prevent chewing out and water for them to stay cool. At night they may come in the house if they are house trained and good with cats.

Females must have a current Brucellosis test before breeding, as well as be current on rabies and vaccines. If interested in using a male that carries genetic diseases, females must be either clear for parentage or tested clear for the diseases the male carries. No exceptions. We do have clear males that can be bred to any female.
 

Stud fee for our ACDs is $300 for unregistered females, $600 for CKC registered females and $1500 for AKC registered females. We may offer Pick of Litter at our discretion if we like the female. If we are taking a stud fee, it is due upon picking up your bitch after a confirmed tie. In the case of us taking pick of litter, there is a contract that we require signed and notarized. If your female does not become bred, we offer a rebreed at no charge (If a stud fee was paid - Does not apply to pick of litter contracts.)

​

All of our males on our Blokes page are available for stud services unless otherwise stated. All our boys are genetic tested and their results are in their bios.

​

American Leopard Hounds: Stud fee is a flat $800 or POL. Our only male is a Merle so we only offer services to black/black/tan bitches at this time. We may consider reds if tested non-merle.

​

Black Mouth Curs: Stud fee is a flat $800 or POL. We currently do not have a male to offer to the public.

Chocolate, Slate, Lilac and Cream

We get a lot of people asking where these beautiful colors come from. Many assume they are mixed. While some people I am sure mix their dogs with other breeds such as Aussie to add these colors, they actually come from the breeds that went into creating this wonderful breed. Australian Kelpies are a breed also from Australia with similar origins. Some people state that the Kelpie breed is too new to be a true ancestor, there is no doubt of the Kelpie influence in this breed. Before the Australian Cattle Dog was deemed a breed, the Kelpie was also a breed in progress and Kelpies were crossed into the ACD to add more working ability. Kelpies come in all sorts of colors. They can be red (chocolate), blue (slate), fawn (lilac) and cream. Each of these colors are caused by a recessive gene that can be passed down for generations hidden. Both parents must carry a copy of these genes to have puppies these colors. Dalmatian also comes in all the above colors, however new research suggests that Dalmatian was never really used in the creation of the breed, but rather the collies used were where ACDs got their ticked pattern. Many people see that the collies were described as being blue merle and they picture the lovely coloration we see on Aussies. However, merle was not used to describe the same color in the past, rather merle used to describe a ticked dog. So the blue collies used in the creation were actually blue ticked. This has been confirmed.

​

We are careful when picking for these colors to make sure we are getting purebred dogs.Our dogs all have traceable pedigrees and are Embark tested and verified purebred.
