Dear Friends,
At this point in time, I have retained only four pet shelties.
Any co-owned, leased or visiting dogs are now with their respective owners where the lines will be carried forward. All pre-arranged breedings are being handled exclusively by and for Ashlinn Shelties, as I will not have time to raise and appropriately place puppies.
For those that have adopted one of my shelties, please know I am always available to answer your questions and if the need should arise, I am always available to see through any former guarantees.

UPDATE: November 5, 2009
I have had several requests to republish the website as it once was and I have decided to do so, but it will be sorely outdated and any updates, should I decide to do any at all, will be slow. Due to my divorce (the reason for the dissemination of my kennel) I have ultimately retained only three shelties and will no longer be breeding or showing for the general public.
However, I am planning a private breeding perhaps this fall or early next spring, or maybe not at all, but the breeding is for no one but for my own personal pleasure and in the memory of a dear, departed friend. It is from where my family line of shelties originated and while I had played in many of the top lines, some of which are still infused in my own family of dogs, this particular family, from the heartiest stock and bred traditionally on the older lines, always remained my favorite.
Againl, I am always available to answer your questions and if the need should arise, I am still always available to see through any former guarantees.
