Courage is the ability to stand in the face of adversity, rise above mediocrity and make difficult choices...

Never be afraid to stand down and forsake one's pride, or stand up to defend the rights of others.

A man should be compelled to truth and honor based on principle, not on evidence.

Karen Keller - Since the early 70's, I have been a  third generation breeder/owner/handler of Australian Shepherds and Miniature Australian Shepherds in partnership with my grandmother and mother of Taycins Kennels .  In 2005 I made the decision to pursue breeding miniature  sized  Australian Shepherds (on occasion, toy sized Aussies) with a different kennel name to specialize in the smaller sizes of our wonderful Australian Shepherds.  Many of my dogs still retain the kennel name "Taycins".

I live in a beautiful valley in Santa Barbara County where the sun is always shining.  While I only have a few adult dogs here, I co-own dogs across the country which I use for breeding in my breeding program.

Many of our dogs are conformation champions, but they also excel in activities like herding, agility, search and rescue, frisbee and flyball.  And of course, they are all buckets of love and companionship for their happy owners, no matter what their size.

- I met Richard Drinnon in mid to late 2001, after spending several years looking for lines that would compliment my own lines.  I wanted to bring down my size down, while maintaining my goals of producing little aussies that have proper aussie type, great temperaments and sound health.  Drinnon dogs have been used in my breeding program since 2002.   

As of 2005, "Timeless Kennels", was created. My goals have always been to produce the best possible puppies that I can.  My goal is to produce sound, healthy puppies that can and will do it all!
