Sometimes we have moments as Breeders that validate all our efforts. These ribbons represent 3 STRAIGHT years of having my dogs in the Top 20 in Conformation at the end of the year. All this accomplished by a small breeder in Massachusetts (of all places) and shown almost exclusively in New England where cattle dog entries are scarce.
My program and my dogs speak for themselves. I am beyond proud. We will continue to prove we are here to stay. The cherry on top is getting compliments from trainers on the balanced temperaments of my dogs ❤️
To my friends, supporters, puppy buyers I cannot begin to thank you enough.
Tony Raposo - thank you for taking a chance on the dog who looked like a coyote and his crazy owner - without your leadership, support and wisdom we never would have made it this far. Thank you for believing in my program as much as I do!
To Merry - GCHS A-Line’s Merry Band of Thieves and Tag - GCHB AOM A-Line’s Laser Tag - THANK YOU ❤️

Ok All,

I’ve been sitting on a little secret - everyone meet Jack. Jack is currently looking for his new home, specifically a home that would be interested in showing him 🙂 if you might be that home please reach out and I will happily discuss him further! This little guy deserves a chance to prove he’s got what it takes

A-Line ACDs ventured all the way up to Union Maine to show this weekend, and the dogs proved it was worth it!
On Saturday, Tag was Select Dog, Singe (Tags son who we co-own with his other Breeder Kelly McNiff) was Best of Winners for a 5 point major, and Lin (A-Line’s What Is A Legacy?) was Best Puppy and went on place 4th in puppy group!
On Sunday Tag went Best of Breed, Singe again went BOW for a 4 pt major, and Lin (on her second day ever in the show ring) went WB and Best of Opp for a 4 point major.
Singe is now a Champion 🙂
Could not be prouder of all the baby dogs and how they handled everything!
Having all the dogs out meant it took a group effort - I would never be able to do this without Tony Raposo and Andrea Roy who are the best dog show support team ever created! And to everyone who helped ringside, thank you too!
Blessed is an understatement! These dogs amaze me everytime we step into a show ring

Today, we were on the receiving end of some sad news, and we were reminded that breeding dogs is never as simple or straightforward as it seems.
Sadly, upon ultrasound today, Merry is NOT pregnant. This means that we will not have puppies available anytime in the next few months. This is sad news after months of planning - weeks of checking progesterone numbers and coordinating semen collection and shipment with the stud dog owner who is in another state. This whole process was expensive and time consuming for everyone involved, and included FedEx deciding to delay our shipment by 12 hours for no apparent reason. I am so incredibly grateful for everyone’s effort to try to make this breeding happen.
In six months, we will try again. However, for anyone who thinks this is about the money, please realize, this all costs way more than we ever make 😢
Enjoy a Christmas puppy pic from our last litter

After a very busy two show day in Cumberland Maine, Tipsy is very proud to tell everyone she is now a Champion! She is officially CH A-Line’s Another Shot Of Wh***ey! Thank you as always to Tony Raposo, I can’t imagine doing this without him ❤️ Go Team Blue! It was so much fun helping with the chow puppies today!

Hello A-Line Family,

I am reaching out here, seeing if there might be any interest among this community first.

The blue female in this picture is Rogue. She is the Mom of the younger Hamilton litter. She will be 4 in July. She is going to be retired from the program, and I would love to find her the right home. She is, however, a unique individual.

She is people selective, and can be reactive behind the door of a crate. She is also protective when loose in her space. This being said, she is a very stereo-typical ACD with that type of personality. She has a GREAT work ethic, and loves anything that lets her play or work her brain. She has been doing agility work with me for 2 years, and except for teeter and weaves - is confident in the other obstacles. She would be an amazing sport dog and is easy to be around with her people.

She absolutely HAS TO HAVE a confident handler, who isn't afraid to tell her no and establish boundaries. This is what makes her a more difficult placement.

She does great with other dogs, and will mostly ignore them unless they get in her face.

I am happy to answer any questions, so please PM me if you have any. This is about finding the RIGHT home for her.

Thanks all!!!
