Nestled in 23 wooded acres in eastern Ontario, Canada, Ninebark is a small hobby kennel dedicated to producing healthy, well adjusted, and beautiful Australian Shepherds for active companionship and conformation.
Ninebark Aussies enjoy daily walks on our trails and play in the creek that winds through our property, and romp in the hundreds of acres of woods that surround our property. They live indoors and not in a kennel, and are fed a super premium kibble diet supplemented by homemade raw. We espouse a minimum immunization philosophy and immunize against rabies as per the law.
Ninebark's signature is beautiful Aussies with exceptional temperaments, with Champion breeding stock that has an extensive and stringent portfolio of health clearances, including, but not limited to:
All litters are thoughtfully and occasionally bred, with the best interests of the breed and of our breeding program foremost in mind. Puppies are well socialized with kids and cats, and are conscientiously placed in loving and permanent homes.
Ninebark is registered with the CKC and the Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA). Ninebark Australian Shepherds are bred to the CKC standard and are registered with the CKC and are eligible for registration with the Australian Shepherd Club of America. We are members of the Canadian National Australian Shepherd Association (CNASA), the Australian Shepherd Club of Ontario (ASCO), the Australian Shepherd Club of America, the United States Australian Shepherd Association (USASA), and the Heart of New York Australian Shepherd Club (HONYASC).
I volunteer my time to the Canadian National Australian Shepherd Association quarterly newsletter, as editor and graphic designer. I am an appointed member (Region 6) of the new Health & Genetics Committee of Australian Shepherd Club of America.
I hope you enjoy this site. Come back for a visit, and don't hesitate to contact Ninebark.
