Logic began his show career at 4 months old receiving Reserve Best Puppy in Show followed by several Group placements.
At 16 months old, he ranked #10 Australian Shepherd in NADD with a Personal Best of 24’6 in his first jump season and simultaneously passed his Therapy Dogs International (TDI) testing.
After focusing on his obedience / performance career for 2 years, Logic returned to the ring cold turkey, pointing in his first show out. He is currently working towards his conformation Championship, with plans for Obedience and Agility titles in the future.
True to his name, Logic is a very intelligent Australian Shepherd and quite the Houdini at home. He enjoys being outdoors, always part of the action wherever it may be, and never fails to make us laugh at his antics. His sweet, lovable temperament is as enjoyable as his enthusiastic face kisses and whole-body wiggles.

CERF: Normal
Genetic Panel: Complete
OFA Hips: Excellent

As a puppy, Tally regularly participated in 4H club, the Dutchess County Fair, and AKC Junior Showmanship.
In 2019, at the age of 16 months, she ranked #6 Australian Shepherd in NADD with a Personal Best of 24’3 in her season debut. She would regularly transition from winning adrenaline filled dock competitions during the day to Therapy Dog training classes at night, ultimately passing her TDI testing with ease.
Tally has traveled the country for months at a time showing in conformation rings under the professional expertise of top handlers, receiving wins under renowned Judges. Even more impressive, alongside her show and performance qualities, Tally has innate Herding Instinct and the ability to work stock, a triple threat that is hard to come by in today’s breeding.
Nowadays she keeps us busy maintaining her active schedule (just how she likes it!)
Most recently, Tally has shown off her acting chops, landing a commercial representing Therapy Dogs in the Live and Let Live campaign for Montefiore Medical Center.
Tally enjoys outdoor activities, running, and playing. She has an excellent temperament, easy-going nature with a fabulous off switch, is a phenomenal sport dog who thrives learning new things, seeing new places, and new people. Her ability to transition to various environments readily is a testament to her biddability. We are most proud to have produced an Australian Shepherd with the stability to be handed to anyone, anytime, and with ease, settle into the activity ahead of her.

OFA Hips: Excellent

Maia was bred and born in Texas then joined us in New York at 8 weeks. Her pedigree is exceptional and bred by foundation working line kennels. Famous dogs such as Certik Bertik, winner of the Most Versatile Australian Shepherd award in 2006 - 2009, and the most titled Australian Shepherd in history, are close relatives.
Maia has been extensively trained and handled by top professionals in the working dog world carving her path on the trial scene.
In October 2023, she attended her 1st Herding Trial at Old Fashioned Kentucky ASCA Club in Horse Cave Kentucky where she quickly earned her Started titles then moved to Open Ducks, Sheep, and Cattle.
A month later, at her 1st ASCA National Specialty in Bryan Texas, she supported the Stock Dog Trial entries with the ducks she helped train for the competition (rumor has it, they were some of the nicest dog broke stock around!)
Maia is currently working towards her ASCA WTCH (Working Trial Championship) with plans thereafter to pursue the MVA Award (Most Versatile Aussie).
She is sweet and sass, always approaches her work with endless enthusiasm, and at the end of the day, loves being pampered.
Grace
Silver Lining’s Spirit Of Grace (RN)
DOB: July 7 2016
Sex: Female
CERF: Normal
Genetic Panel: Complete
OFA Hips: Good
OFA Elbows: Normal
Grace has participated in Agility, Fast CAT, Dock Diving, Trick Dog, Obedience, and Rally events. Proudly always Owner Handled.
When not pursuing activities, she flicks the off switch and enjoys house dog life. Best known for full body snuggles, which sometimes feel suffocating, and forcing you to rub her chest until your arm falls asleep. She bonds tightly and is exceptionally emotionally intelligent. There isn’t a dog happier to run around for hours playing with a Jolly Ball or sprinkler system then watch movies on the couch.
Many of her wonderful characteristics and traits have been passed to her offspring. One of Grace’s biggest accomplishments took place in the whelping box with her 1st and only litter, “All Over The Map Pups” (Litter 2020), which produced breed record holders several years running, and some of the fastest, finest sport dogs out there.

Ana is one of the most important Silver Linings dogs. As one of our foundation bitches, she has not only given us lines that will last a lifetime, but she has produced exceptionally versatile offspring true to breed standard and contributed a number of Top 10 performance dogs to the breed.
A hallmark of a quality breeding dog is the rare ability to outproduce itself in quality and characteristics. Time and time again has accomplished just that and her strong genetics carry through multiple generations.
Ana is Dam to “Presidential Pups” (Litter 2016), “Mathematica Pups” (Litter 2018), and most recently, Grand Dam to “Deja Vu Pups” (Litter 2023).
