Discovery Hill Australian Shepherds LLC

Discovery Hill Australian Shepherds LLC raises purebred Australian shepherds on nine acres in Marshfield, Vermont, about 40 minutes from Montpelier in the heart of the Green Mountains. The program is run by Ruth Eaton out of a 120-year-old farmhouse, and it grew from a family love of the breed into a small home-based operation.

Dogs are raised inside the home alongside children and a cat, giving puppies early exposure to everyday household life. The program places equal weight on health and temperament, selecting for sound dispositions through genetics and reinforcing that foundation through early socialization. Tails are never docked and dewclaws are not removed, reflecting a preference for keeping dogs as nature intended.

All Australian shepherds produced here are AKC-registered, with prepaid registration and microchipping included. Extensive health testing is part of the program, and champion bloodlines inform the breeding stock. Families searching for Australian shepherd puppies in Vermont will find that the focus here is on dogs bred to be companions — ones that fit naturally into the rhythm of a household from the start.
