Meet the Family

Meet Our
Aussies

At Dapple Den, our dogs are first and foremost family. They are our children, our companions, and an important part of our everyday lives. Each one brings their own unique personality, temperament, and story to our home, and that close connection is at the heart of how we raise and care for our Australian Shepherds.

Koda

Male • Blue Merle

Koda was the first Australian Shepherd we ever owned, and we quickly fell completely in love with this wonderful breed. His intelligence, loyalty, playful spirit, and gentle nature showed us just how special Australian Shepherds can be.

 

Koda inspired the beginning of Dapple Den and sparked our passion for raising exceptional dogs with care, purpose, and love. .

Lyra

FEMALE • BLACK TRI

Lyra is the heart of our household, a gentle soul with an intuitive temperament that makes her the perfect companion. Born from a line of exceptional temperament and health, she embodies the classic Aussie spirit - loyal, intelligent, and always eager to please. Her history is one of companionship and quick learning, showing a remarkable ability to adapt to any family situation while maintaining her vibrant, playful spark.

Maple

FEMALE • BLACK TRI

Maple is the sweetheart of Dapple Den and our beautiful imported girl from the Czech Republic. She brings special European bloodlines into our kennel, but to us she is first and foremost our big soft panda bear. She wouldn’t hurt a fly, is incredibly gentle and affectionate, and has the goofiest personality. Maple loves being around her people and has such a calm, nurturing nature that makes her one of the sweetest dogs you could ever meet.

Ranger

MALE • RED TRI

Ranger is the explorer of our family. With his striking green eyes and boundless energy, he is always the first to investigate a new scent or lead the way on a mountain hike. Beyond his active nature, he possesses a remarkable intuition, often sensing when someone needs a quiet moment of companionship. His temperament is balanced and steady, making him a cornerstone of our home and a joy to every visitor.
