Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Bobbye Rucker's Australian Shepherds located in Texas. We are strong advocates of proper breeding practices and run our program accordingly. We breed top-quality Australian Shepherds. We decided to start a responsible, in-home breeding program in order to produce quality farm dogs that also fit into a home setting. We focus on breeding dogs that have enough drive on the farm to keep up with our lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting.
