Please do not post problems with the pedigree database in this forum.

There is a link on the main database page that has an “email me” to the database administrator’s email address. He is the only one that can address your problems and going directly to him will help solve issues as they arise.

If you visit the AussieBoard, you will find a forum for general issues with advice for workarounds while we figure out how to make the pedigree database fully functional in its new home. Thank you!

Aussie Pedigree Database is in beta testing.

You are able to search pedigrees and submit data, but some functionality is still being ironed out. Please bear with us!

Aussie Pedigree Database is nearly ready!

Well, there were some communication things that needed to be ironed out, and our programmer sustained a major injury that delayed things, but the programmers were good and responsive. The software has been handed over and it’s now in testing phase. Should be a few days, and we’ll be sure to let the Aussie community know.

I just thought the front page needed an Aussie photo, so here are my dogs, The Fury and Rippa, making a couch fort.

The Mistretta Structure Book is Available

One of the canons of the Australian Shepherd, Victoria Mistretta’s illustrated book is great to learn from as well as something worth collecting. If you’re into Aussie structure, this is a must-have.

Have you seen the Jay Sisler videos yet?

About twenty years ago, a good man sent me a good VHS video – the oft mentioned Jay Sisler, herald of the Aussie, and his home videos. I have been working on uploading all Australian Shepherd footage to YouTube for public consumption but boy, it takes a while. In the meantime, here is a link to the most popular video yet – over 80,000 views on YouTube!

Under Construction!

Pardon the dust, but this site is under (re)construction. I hope that if you love Australian Shepherds, or Aussies, as they’re affectionately referred to (or wiggle butts, even), you’ll learn to love them even more here. Search my site for informative articles from every stage and step – from puppy to adult and from pet to top competitive canine. This is not a spam-catching site devoted to getting your email address and making money off you, I’ve been running it for almost twenty years for free – enjoy our resources and let me know if you have questions or improvement suggestions!
