ABOUT US: We are a pedigree breeder of Maremma Sheepdogs on a farm (Jumble Farm), near Canberra/Cooma. We strive to produce healthy, friendly, well socialised and genetically sound guardian dogs. Our farm runs a variety of livestock (pigs, cattle, sheep and goats) and poultry (chickens, ducks, guinea fowl, turkeys and peacocks). We have experience with livestock guarding dogs (LGDs), companion dogs and rescue dogs. Our dogs have great pedigrees with International lineage, they are beautiful to look at, great livestock guardians, loyal companions, and have friendly temperaments.

Please refer to our web page to learn more about our unique training and early socialisation programs - ensuring the very best start to your pups life.

ABOUT THE BREED: Looks can be deceiving! Maremma Sheepdogs are so much more than their regal stance, fluffy white fur and good looks! They are smart and independent thinkers, who naturally protect those they are bonded too (livestock, poultry and people). They will defend and protect whom they are bonded with. They make their presence known to any potential threat by targeted barking (they have a loud deep bark). They will defend if necessary. They don't demand a lot of attention, but do enjoy affection when it suits them! You'll fall in love and stay in love with this independent majestic breed.

**Approved homes only. We do not sell dogs for breeding, unless you are an ANKC registered pedigree breeder or have solid plans to become one**

We don't breed dogs, we breed Maremma's!
