Atrigema Kennels - Australian Terrier Breeder - Dapto, NSW
Australian Terrier Dog Breeder - NSW
Atrigema is a small blue and tan kennel. I have been involved with Aussie's since 1982 and active in the conformation ring since 1992. I bred a champion prior to campaigning one. I have campaigned 7 champions, 3 with my prefix. ( Abby is doubled titled has Australian Champion and Neuter Champion title).
This kennel only has the occasional litter of pure blue and tan puppies. My dogs are part of the family and I believe a house is not a home without an Aussie or three.
**Please note we have no puppies planned until late 2019**
I am an active member in The Australian Terrier Club of NSW - Show secretary since 2006 and the Archive officer.
Advice about Puppies:
If you are looking for a puppy, don't settle for second best, buying a puppy is a huge investment for the next 12-16 years; I cannot stress enough that being patient and buying a quality puppy is more important than buying the first puppy that becomes available. Spend some time and check out that it is the right breed for you. Then buy the pup of choice from a breeder that is registered with DogsNSW and are active in the breed e.g: showing regularly or into obedience or agility etc. Breeders should be a member of a club related to their breed. Good Breeders are breeding to improve the breed and are not breeding just for the sake of having a litter to sell as pets for the pet market; pet breeders are not seeking to improve the breed.
Ask many questions to the breeder, ask to visit their home, a good breeder should be open to all questions and viewing of the dogs and home. Often the dog is not owned by the puppies breeder, though it means dad can't be seen it also means that the breeder goes outside their kennel to improve quality of puppies
If you visit a breeder and are not satisfied with the conditions, walk away do not buy a pup and "save" it from its environment, this only encourage more puppies to breed from this person.
I will be happy if you choose an Australian Terrier as a dog breed you want and if you buy your Aussie puppy from me. I generally have only a litter every year, this means you will have to wait and order your puppy.
