The home of Appian Way...Appian Way Kennels is located in the beautiful Pine River Valley in Bayfield, Colorado. Bayfield is in Southern Colorado between Durango and Pagosa Springs.

We officially started our kennels in February of 2004.

Our dogs are family raised on a full acre and 1/2 with room to work, play, swim and train. We lease a 9 acre field across the street for our agility work and lots of Frisbee time.

We introduce our dogs to any venue of competition that they show an interest in. Please see each dogs' personal page for more information.

Our dogs are raised with our children, horses, cat, goats, ducks and chickens.

Alicia woth one of her horsesWe strongly hold true to the belief that our dogs are puppies first and competitors second. This has proven to enable our dogs to be confident in themselves, have a well balanced temperament, and a chance to build a relationship with us as handlers and enjoy all areas of competition while still maintaining a strong work ethic with drive and ambition. We proudly feed a combination of high grade, organic raw and grain free, organic kibble. We vaccinate minimally. Our dogs are an important part of our family!

Our daughter Alicia, who is 17, is involved in 4-H, AQHA and Hunter/Jumpers with her horses.
Caleb and RoseOur son Caleb, age 12, is in charge of the ducks, chickens, and his prized show dairy goats. 

He has started in Jr. Conformation and agility with "his" choice of breed; Chihuahuas. You can access his own page of CH Chihuahuas in the near future. 

We breed minimally, and when we do........Appian Way Australian Shepherds sells all show puppies with written and signed show and health contracts, guaranteeing the pups against hereditary defects. 

All puppies sold as pets must be spayed or neutered at sexual maturity, and will be registered with "Not for Breeding".

Thank you for your interest in our site. Enjoy looking around and feel free to contact us at any time.
