Aussie Work Dogs Earn Their Keep on Frederick Farms
Denise and Ron Smith brought ten Australian Shepherds to Frederick County from California four years ago and have sold 40 to 50 stock dogs since. The dogs work cattle, horses, and other stock with high intelligence and versatility, earning praise from local handlers and animal control. The couple aim to preserve the breed as work dogs while seeking AKC recognition in the miscellaneous class.
