Name: Jack-O's Wiggly Blue Boy
Description: Wiggles is a blue merle Australian shepherd out of our sire, Jack-O and dam Russi. He is showing great promise in working with the livestock. He has already started to herd with encouragement. The other nice aspect to having this young male, " Wiggles" as we call him, in our family is he represents our breeding program. He is very even tempered, great with the kids, loves to please and we couldn't ask for more. .
Wiggles now resides with the Crispe family in Stettler Alberta, Canada. He is going to a very loving and secure home with all the farm charm. We will miss our beautiful big blue boy, but are happy to see him start a new life adventure. We will keep you posted on how Wiggles' life in Canada progresses.
Name: Jack-O 5B Aldrich
Description: Jack-O is our current sire. He is the reason why we chose to raise Australian Shepherds. Jack-O started out as my daughters Christmas gift and turned out to be much more. He can turn on the heat and work the cattle or snuggle up next to my kids patiently eating rocks they feed him. After he has a mouth full of rocks, he slowly walks to the driveway, deposits his rock pile and heads back for mor- Now that's patients! I can't say enough about this great dog, infact I should say family member. I am very pleased to see that all of his kids appear to carry his same personality. We are very excited when we hear from a puppy owner that Jack-O's kids love to work cattle and play with the kids or laze around and take a ride. With every new addition to the family, litter born, we become more excited than ever to see what cute little bundle awaits.

Ike is both well mannered and has a great personality to train. He will add cow, trainability and conformation to your babies. He can both head and heel, trail ride and he has had 30 days professional training. We have been team roping with him for the past three years.
Name: JackO's Party Ponca
Description: Ponca is the son of Russie( Red Merle) and JackO (Black and White Tri). He has joined the Boyle family in Branson, Missouri where he will spend the rest of his many years. We are excited to feature Ponca on our website, not only because he is an example of what our breeding program stands for, but also becasue this big guy has lots of potential. We just love to continue to see how this boy grows. He enjoys hiking, RV trips and playing with his family. Continue to check out his album to see new photos of Ponca.

Mindi is a loveable and responsible mommy. She cares for her babies with firmness, affection and diligence. Mindi has been a part of our family since she was 7weeks old and she is almost five. Mindi and Wiggles are our young duo; together they completely compliment each other. Check our "view our Puppies" page to see if Mindi and Wiggles have any puppies? available!
Name: RockingHearts Duke Of Earl

We are very pleased with his compassionate and patient personality and impressed with his trainability. Duke has two full glass eyes, a full collar-chest, and white paws. WoW! He sure is a looker!
This guy is a lover not a fighter and plays very well with our kids. We are very excited to watch as he develops and grows into a mature dog. He has already started to follow daddy when he works the cattle down the ally way and in the holding pen. Keep watching to see how our up and coming young star develops.
Name: Our Home And Our Family
Description: These are just some of the examples of the beauty we live in everyday and how God blesses us. Our children continue to grow and lifes adventures never end. They are always amazing us with their intellegence and unconditional love. So here are some pictures of our place and family in 2007.
Name: Splashing Around Summer 2007
Description: WOW! What a splash they can make. Here are some pictures of our two bubble blowers having fun in the water this summer. Water gun fights and spashing are just a few of the exciting things you can do in the water. Mariah and Mathurin had a blast in the pool while the weather was hot, but their most memorable part of the summer was the HUGE sunflower that Mariah grew in our garden. It reached over 10 feet tall. If only we could have this much energy- Think of what we could do!
Name: Letters Of Reference- Thank You!
Description: Hi Jacklyn and family,
Fred and I would like to thank you for such a wonderful little girl! She is doing fantastic. I filled out all her papers that you were so kind to send. Fred and I both agree that we have never dealt with anyone as thorough as you were in this process. What a blessing you were after such a loss in Scarlet. We just took it pretty easy today. Luna is getting very comfortable in her new home. You can see by her pictures that she is very up, then starting to relax, and the last picture she is veryyyyyy relaxed! I am planning to take her to the beach tomorrow to introduce her to the great Pacific Ocean! We will have more pictures of her playing in the sand. I cannot thank you enough.
Sincerely,
Fred and Debbie

This message is in reference to: \"Annie\"
Jacklyn and David,Bet you though we dropped off the face of the earth. Sorry it's just been CRAZY around our home. We moved, got my father through cancer, ran a plumbing company, and chased three kids. We bought your \"Annie,\" our Sadie and we just wanted to let you know just how wonderful she is. We love her like a family member. She still goes to work with me every day, has never had an accident in the house since breaking and is a delight. She fetches balls anyone throws, follows many commands and has never been to obedience school. It just wasn\'t needed. She is very protective of the entire family. Just a few days ago two men came to the house to install in internet and she got in between me and them and never growled, but let them know she did not like them there. I loved it, and the men really respected her. Thank you guys for breeding such high quality animals. I will try to get some pictures to you as soon as possible.
Thanks Again,
Deanie Heckart and Family

Hi Jacklyn,
George and I wanted to send you some updated pictures of our little boy Scout (who isn't so little anymore). He is growing so fast! He has been the best puppy ever, we always get comments about how well behaved he is and how beautiful he is. Everyone loves him. We couldn't have asked for a better dog.
He has outgrown his old crate so we got him a bigger one to grow into, he doesn't seem to like all the space so we put a pillow in the back and
now he seems cozy. We walk him so much during the day and run around with him at parks, oh and he absolutely LOVES the snow. We have had so many great snow storms and we always take him out to play in it. He has so much fun trying to catch falling snow flakes, and just running around, burying his nose in snow. His personality has gotten stronger and stronger, he has quite a stubborn side but he is still an angel. We are currently looking for a new apartment with a yard so we can take him right outside and run around with him at home as well as at the park. Our Christmas Tree had an accident with him, but it was only once. He was excited and tugged on branches and brought the whole thing down haha. Surprisingly enough, only one ornament broke :)
We just wanted to give you an update, let you know he is doing well and to say thank you for such a great companion. Sorry it took so long for us to write, everything has been hectic around here with the holidays. We hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday and have a happy New Year!!!
Best Wishes,
Maeghan, George, and Scout

Happy Holidays Jacklyn!
I had meant to email you for some time now to let you know how great Flikka is doing, especially after all the time you patiently spent with me on her behalf;)
She is extremely bright . . . something everyone who meets her comments on. It's like having a little person around! Her and Mateo are never far apart and their relationship is awesome (I think she has established her female power & can relax finally;)
We feel so very fortunate at having gone ahead and brought Flikka into our lives for Mateo's sake. We are ALL happier! At just over 6 months, she weighs in a 45 pounds so we're expecting a "big bone gal". I went on your web site to check out Jack' O's pictures again and she looks exactly like him . . . freckles and all!
Thank-you again and again and we wish you & yours a wonderful 2008! You are in our thoughts often as we enjoy our little girl.
Best,
Lucy Spangler-Gore

Description: 2008 Lucky 7 Ranch Rodeo Team
Our 2008 summer season is slowly comming to an end, with the cooler evenings and the shorter days Fall is definatley here. You can ask any Ranch Rodeo team and they will tell you it is a lot easier to enjoy getting dirty and working hard when it isn't so very hot, but with the cooler temperatures comes more fustrations with livelier livestock.
Our boys did very well this year and we had lots of family fun too! Our "Lucky 7" team consists of David Aldrich, Jared Walker, Will Wilson, Delbert Helton and Riley Ogden. From wrestling rangey cattle to sort off waspy steers- these boys have seen and done it all this year. Thanks to the our heavenly Father, no one was seriously injured this year and we are praying for a safe 2009 season already!
Most of the Ranch Rodeos we attended had Cattle Sorting, Pasture Team Roping, Branding, Trailer Loading and Steer Mugging ( we prefer to attend the Ranch Rodeos where the events are all cattle based). Please enjoy some of the pics we have that shocase our boys and our families in action. May God bless you as much as He has all of us.
Have a wonderful Day and God Bless,
The Aldrich Family and "Lucky 7 Ranch Rodeo Family"
