We share our home with two intelligent and fun-loving Aussies: Vladi, 9-year-old ARPH rescue, our goofy boy, and Ellie, 8 years old, our pretty show dog. We lost our first Aussie, 12-year-old Suzie, November 25, 2011 to hemangiosarcoma.
Opari is the Basque word for gift. Suzie, our first Aussie, was a gift to us -- one that we will always treasure. Suzie, in turn, has given us the gift of great adventures in dog training and competing in dog sports for the first time in our lives. The training and competing has given us the gift of new friends whom we cherish for their fellowship, encouragement, support and, if we get lucky, shared congratulations among all our friends.
We are not a breeding kennel and we do not sell puppies. For listings of responsible breeders please check the breeder directories for the Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA) and the United States Australian Shepherd Association (USASA). Even better, please support Aussie Rescue!
