I'm the breeder behind Ghost Eye Aussies located in Kenesaw, NE. We are breeders who do everything we can to better the breed and ensure our dogs and puppies are able to get the very most out of life. We breed ASCA generic tested standard Australian Shepherds. The goal we set and which I believe is still the most important, is to produce healthy puppies that make a well-rounded character in an adult dog.
About Kelly
I have been an absolute dog lover of all kinds. I have had dogs my entire life.
What makes Kelly’s program special
My dogs are generic tested. Puppies are raised in our house, not out in a kennel. I choose my breeding parents closest to breed standard.

They have toys in their pen. Toys are changed out to encourage new mental development. They are let out of their pen to join us every day for playtime and interaction with us, our other dogs, and our two cats. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Toys, e.g. Ball and Socialized with Other Animals.
Puppies are vet checked and tails and dewclaws are removed at two to three days old. Puppies are dewormed starting at two weeks of age and continue until they are ready at eight weeks of age.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Ghost Eye Aussies hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.
Kelly offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
Work with a trusted transporter to get your puppy comfortably dropped off at an airport or meeting point close to home.
