Turnabout’s Available Dogs

Working as a serious preservation breeder for Australian Cattle Dogs, Turnabout emphasizes producing the best possible litter with each and every breeding.  This means that we will typically want to keep a puppy to go forward in our breeding program here at the ranch.  That being said, we will usually have several nice pups available for pet and performance homes with each litter.  

The reservation process is fairly simple.  First, you will request an application from us by email (turnaboutaustraliancattledogs@gmail.com) Next, we will set up a phone interview.  This conversation is very important.  We will discover your wants and desires when it comes to a puppy.  If it is criteria we believe we can meet with the upcoming litters, we will add you to the waiting list.  At that time, a nonrefundable holding fee of $500 will be due.  We will work to get you a pup with the desired traits as soon as possible.  Preservation breeders are not puppy vending machines.  It may take some time to get the desired temperament.   It will be worth the wait, however.  Finding a puppy that will fit into your family’s lifestyle will set you and the pup up for success.

Turnabout also uses the application process for adults and retired show dogs.  Please request an application to get started.

retired australian cattle dogs for sale

We believe strongly in doing what is best for the dogs and we place many of our adults and retired dogs with loving families when their careers here are finished.  These dogs have happily fulfilled their roles in the ring and at the ranch and we are thrilled to have them start another chapter of their lives.  Some of our dogs go on to continue their show careers in Junior Showmanship but most become hiking or running buddies or even couch potatoes.  

Be certain to check back often to see if your next companion shows up on our page.

Available Australian Cattle Dog Adults

Fiona is a young red girl who would make a great companion.  True to the breed, she would like a person to call her own.  She has good energy and would love to run the trail and then cuddle in your lap.  She has all health clearances, which are as follows: PLL and PRA clear by parentage, RCD4 clear or carrier, hearing normal.

She walks very well on leash and is crate trained.  She most enjoys her time at home but has traveled a bit with the show team and has been exposed to other dogs and situations.  She was 2 in August. She would do best in a home by herself at first.

Fiona has both her major wins towards her AKC Championship thanks to Andrea Wojo! 2 4 point majors, one at the Greeley Kennel Club show in August. The other at Cheyenne Kennel Club in September. She also earned 3 more single points at the Southern Colorado Kennel Club show in Pueblo, Colorado in November putting her well within reach of her AKC Championship.

Zeb is a highly intelligent dog. He is very exuberant and would excel in a performance home. Super athletic is an understatement. He would be ready as a running and hiking partner. Zeb is leash and crate trained. He has also been excellent in off leash situations here at the ranch.

From time to time, we will also feature other dogs from partner kennels.
