EC Ranch
- Certified Good Dog Breeder
Meet the breeder
I'm the breeder behind EC Ranch located in Texas. We are a passionate and dedicated breeding program that produces Australian Kelpie with great drives, conformation, and temperaments. These dogs can do it all, and we make sure to foster that versatility in our puppies beginning from the moment they're born. Through selective breeding and genetic testing, we strive to better the breed. We look forward to introducing you to your next best friend!
