Shenkiri PBGVs and Aussies

Adref yn Gymru - At home in Wales

Based in the foothills of the beautiful mountains of North Wales we own, enjoy, show, and try our best with Petit Basset Griffon Vendeens and Australian Shepherds.


The two breeds we own are totally different and appealing in different ways,

The PBGVs are total clowns - mischievous, deaf to recall when on the scent, stubborn and not the first choice for obedience. They are however charming loving dogs friendly with family, house guests and other animals. The added bonus of a PBGV is that if you do train him/her to a high standard, you can be very smug!

Aussies are smart, easy to train herders who can turn their talents to most disciplines,- obedience, agility, working trials even trampolining. Their loyalty and devotion to their owners is unquestionable.

Neither breed is low maintenance needing a good deal of exercise, grooming and large amounts of training and TLC. It is very much a case of the more effort you put in the more you get out.

We feed naturally - and have done since 1997.
