Australian Shepherds. We have a pure hearted devotion to this wonderful breed with which we share our
lives.
I, Lisa work for Intel Corporation and hold a BA from University of Washington and a MBA, as well as
several professional certifications. I have the unique privilege of working from home the majority of the
time, allowing me to stay close to the things I love. I bought my first Australian Shepherd in 1997 as a pet,
but that was all it took. Ever since then, I have loved and been deeply devoted to the breed. During the late
1990’s I worked with a local breeder helping with their breeding program, training, showing and
placement of their puppies and adults, they have since passed away, So, in 2006, I started my own
kennel and applied for the name Laurelhills, which was granted by ASCA in January 2006. I am actively
involved in training and showing dogs. I also do selective grooming on the side for a few regular clients
as well as boarding and day care as time permits.
Jaclyn attended Lousiana State University where she majored in Animal Science, while in Baton Rouge,
she worked for a large multi-doctor veterinary practice. In 2006, Jaclyn relocated to Texas and is now the
lead Veterinary Technician at Carthage Veterinary Hospital. Jaclyn fell in love with the breed, while she
was enjoying a successful Youth horse showing career, and in 2000 she purchased her first love, an
Aussie. In 2004, Jaclyn moved into the dog show world, and was blessed to work with Yvette LeBlanc of
Bayouland, assisting with showing and training of their exceptional dogs. She has worked with several
of the top handlers and has enjoyed much success in professional dog handling, showing dogs of all
breeds to their Championships and Group Placements.
Lisa and Jaclyn became friends in 2008, sharing a love and commitment for the Australian Shepherd.
Together, we share the same high standards and moral integrity that this exceptional breed deserves.
We are committed to raising and training exceptional dogs with sound body and mind using a holistic
approach.
Our objective is to get each puppy a loving, forever home. We will always be available to help with
questions, training, showing, boarding or referrals for the life of the dog or puppy. We are proud of our
dogs and encourage prospective families to come out and meet our dogs. All of our puppies are sold
with a contract, come with full health guarantees and placed in pre-approved, forever homes.
