Hi there, my name is Trish and my husband Dan and I are the owners of Little Bit Country Aussies. I have

had dogs of all kinds throughout my life, such as Poodles, Jack Russell Terriers, Labrador Retrievers,

both rescues & purebreds, along with other herding breeds such as Border Collies, Belgian Shepherds,

and Old English Sheepdogs, although my heart has now found its home with Australian Shepherds.

For several years I participated in many dog-related activities such as Conformation, Obedience,

Herding, Flyball, Scent training, Tracking, and Dog Sledding. I have trained multiple CKC/AKC/UKC

Champions, Obedience Trial Champions, and Herding Trial Champions. For many years I dragged my

children around the dog show circuit in southern Ontario and the northern United States, from shows to

trials to dog sled races in the U.P., 2 kids and usually 5 dogs in a little Ford Ranger pickup… those are

some of my fondest memories of all time (and hopefully my kids’ too)!! However, I was younger then

and my energy level was a bit higher lol. I think I am now content working with obedience and dabbling

in herding, agility, and flyball, although my love of confirmation showing remains.

Family is a top priority for us, we camp and explore and love to get out and experience all that we can

with our dogs. And our children and grandchildren are involved in our puppies and dogs as much as we

are! There is nothing better on this earth (in my humble opinion) than the smile and giggle of a child, or

the unconditional look of love in a dog’s eyes, and when those two things are combined,

it is pure magic!
