Dove Creek Aussies

Dove Creek Aussies raises standard Australian shepherds in Barboursville, Virginia, in the Piedmont region roughly 15 miles northeast of Charlottesville. Gail handles the program personally as a small-scale operation, typically producing a litter or two per year.

Health testing is a clear priority, with breeding dogs screened for clear genetic panels as well as hips and elbows before pairing. Puppies receive early neurological stimulation and scent exposure in those first critical weeks, and are handled daily to build a strong social foundation from birth.

The program carries an AKC Breeder of Merit designation and participates in both AKC and ASCA conformation, with dogs also competing in performance events. Gail shows owner-handler, and dogs from the program have earned titles at national specialty competitions. Those looking for Australian shepherd puppies in Virginia will find a program oriented toward the breed standard and versatility, with dogs that have also participated in dock diving, herding, and therapy visits.
