In October of 1999, we were bestowed the honor of being inducted into the Australian Shepherd Club of America's Hall of Fame.

Southern Cross Australian Shepherds was officially registered with ASCA in 1987.  In the years since, we have dedicated ourselves to preserving the quality and traits so unique to the Australian Shepherd.

We have been blessed with owning and meeting many special dogs and extra special folks along the way... Thanks to all of you who have supported us all the way into the ASCA Hall of Fame!  Hall of Fame # 29......WOW!

"Willie", no doubt, was my closest friend.  Her loyalty, intelligence, and natural athleticism were unsurpassed.  Confidence, instinct and intuitiveness molded her character into one of the finest dogs I've had the pleasure of being teamed with.  We were honored in being able to obtain a pup from one of the last breeding Stewart and Judy Williams of Windermere kennels performed with the best from Las Rocosa and Windermere.  "I will always miss you my friend, and an glad we were able to say goodbye ."- Karla Michelson



"Ruby" owned and unconditionally loved the Heathman's  of Dreamtime kennels.  This one of a kind little red girl has passed on the traits and abilities so special to our line onto the next generation.  She was a special lady and will be missed greatly.  We will see you again in the Dreamtime...
