Bluegrass represents a fine example of the North American Miniature Australian Shepherd breed.  He is a dazzling blue merle with blue eyes, a balanced 17.5" tall, and has a wonderfully sensitive and intelligent manner.  He carries the title of conformation Champion with the American Rare Breed Association.  Bluegrass has set an impressive standard of what a fine sire should be.  Bred to females of various bloodlines, he has consistently produced sons and daughters of outstanding type and disposition, earning countless titles from coast to coast.  His grandsons and granddaughters, and recently his great grand babies, are earning honors and successes in many venues including Canine Good Citizen, herding, conformation, agility, fly ball, rally-o,  The Delta Society, and the list will continue.  These dogs have the disposition and attitude to be your friend and devoted companion for life, as Bluegrass has been to us for 14 years.

NAME:  ARBA and IABCA Champion Bluegrass Legacy
SIRE:  CH Patchwork's Bluegrass
DAM:  CH Taycin's Wee Bonnie Lassie

With Champion Bluegrass and Champion Bonnie for parents and several full brothers with multiple titles, our home bred Multi Champion Bluegrass Legacy is a wonderful addition to our Aussie family. He is small at 16 1/4", correct in structure, and is a lovely blue merle with a gentle, affectionate and totally friendly manner, just like Bluegrass. Legacy is a conformation champion with both ARBA and IABCA and we extend our appreciation to Angie and Bill Ogle for helping to finish Legacy's ARBA Championship. Legacy is a true ambassador for us and for the breed. He loves everyone he meets and has traveled to CA, AZ and even Germany, spreading his good cheer and exuberance and happily fitting in wherever he goes. He has sired many absolutely wonderful sons and daughters who are loved and successful in various venues. We just love the dispositions of this boys offspring!                                                         

NAME:  ARBA MASTER, RARITIES, NAMASCUSA and IABCA CHAMPION
             BLUEGRASS ENCORE OF HEARTLAND, CGC
SIRE:    ARBA CH Patchwork's Bluegrass
DAM:    IABCA CH Linderland's Mar-A-Lago Bay

Irresistible good looks, a wonderful and comical disposition like his sire's, correct structure, and beautiful type are but a few of the many reasons we chose to keep, raise, and show our young blue merle male Encore.  As a young puppy Encore became a real  show dog earning several Best of Breed, Res. Best in Show, and Best in Show awards.  Now as a young adult Encore is continuing to accumulate points and judges' accolades. He has earned his National and International IABCA Championships and his Championship title with ARBA by the time he was 16 months old! He has also added the title of RARITIES Champion to his list of accomplishments.  Thank you to Rachel and Betsy Hyer for their excellent help in handling him. Encore will be at home with us continuing to endear and entertain all he meets and, hopefully, make a grand sire in the years to come. 

NAME: Patchworks Serenade to Bluegrass
SIRE: Patchworks Eye Of The Tiger
DAM: Patchworks Twilight Masquerade

During the spring of 2007 I traveled to southern Missouri to visit Linda Perry at Patchworks Farms and immediately fell in love with Serenade, who was aptly named "Panda" when she was a baby.  This little bundle of black tri energy and good looks won my heart and she was certainly "Not For Sale".  After three days of convincing, Linda let her come home to South Dakota with me.  Lucky us at Bluegrass Kennels!!

NAME: Patchworks Claire Of Linderland
SIRE: Patchwork's Profile In Courage Daniel
DAM: Patchwork's Delilah

This delightful little black tri lady's dam is a sister to our beloved Bluegrass and both her dam and sire are fine examples of the well-bred Miniature Aussies that have been bred at Patchwork Farms for many, many years. Little wonder that we celebrate our good fortune that Linderland Kennels was willing to let her come to our house!! Claire is a tiny little girl of only 14 inches, our smallest by far. She has wonderful structure, clear health clearances, and a disposition that is comical and entertaining. We welcome Claire to our home and to our breeding program.
