LasRocosa Lena Brooks

WTCH. LasRocosa Bonny Kyle RDX x Ch. LasRocosa Bow Kay STDc

 

Lena left this world at the dear age of 13 years, due to uterine cancer. Gone but never will be forgotten. We both love and miss her as much today as the day she left Us. She was the best friend anyone could ever want or need. Her beauty, loyalty, personality & structure lives on through her offspring. To this day we see many great traits Our Lena has passed on throughout all the generations until this very day. She will live on forever within them.
Lena has produced what is the future of Overland Australian Shepherds.
We pride our selves for owning this fine bitch and producing offspring baring many titles in all areas of competition You will find many photos of Lena's offspring in this website. We hope you will enjoy their beauty view their pedigrees and appreciate the Genetic Soundness of these Wonderful Dogs.

Boomer is a Lena Son that we sold to a dairy farmer  as a youngster.  We were offered the opportunity to purchases him back at the age of seven 1/2 years old and we jumped right on it! The 1st thing we done was to register him through AKC before they closed their books "This was during the time that pure-bred registered Aussies were being accepted into AKC", then we began to show him in the Conformation arena shortly afterwards, Boo was 8 years old when he started his show carrier.. Boomer finished his ASCA & Intl' Championships before the age of ten. He also was Major Pointed in AKC gaining wins &  placing over many of the top dogs in the US that were campaigning in all 3 registries!! The Young just couldn't compete with this old dog and his new bag of Tricks!! He turned heads where ever we went. His style, looks, a personality to die for & he moved like a dream come true! Boomer has produced many competitive and titled offspring for Us

Colleen is out of LasRocosa Joseph DNA-CP x Ch. Gingerbreds Irish Creme STDds. "Her Sire is a litter mate to our old Lena"

Colleen is featured on Animal Planets "Breed All About It - The Australian Shepherds" working sheep. One of the 1st things you can not help but see is Cocoa laying down looking intensely at the sheep with her two beautiful blue eyes!

 


 

If anyone would have said to me 20+ years ago that one day we would become Breeders and Owners of some of the finest Australian Shepherds in this world, I would have had to ask them if they had lost their minds. Now, that our dream has come true. I have My Husband, Children and Friends to thank for helping Us along the way.

Themie Shepherd ~ Loving Husband  for all his support, for putting up with Me over the years and for learning how to and becoming a wonderful handler, when I got to where I was no longer to do so. With out him we would not have all the Conformation Titles that we have accomplished over the Years.

 



I would like to mention a couple of very good friends that have mentored Us through the years and stuck by us through thick and thin. They know the true meaning of Friendship! Always being there for you, willing to lend a ear or give comfort and advice
