Old English Sheepdog Breeders, ACT

Whitefall Old English Sheepdogs was established 1964 in Scotland by Robin and Christine Mather arriving in South Australia in 1968. They brought with them Whitefall Rollingsea Beach Bunny & Whitefall Prospectblue Guardsman who became Australian Champions. After a short period back in Scotland by the 90s Alison Finlay and Christine ventured into Newfoundlands while maintaining a passion for OES. During a period owning and showing Gateview Goes to the Top Alison was added to the prefix and they waited for the right bitch to come along. Before Robin passed away in 2015, Alison and Christine travelled overseas to shows and formed an alliance with Niedersachsens Pride OES to facilitate the right dog semen to be imported for the bitch. She finally came along in 2014. Robin loved Ruby (Ch Perfu Bridal Waltz) and he was very happy with the plan for the next generation of Whitefall. With thanks to Perfu we continue in an independent direction. Robin would be very proud to have Ch Whitefall Gentlemen Never Tell (ai) aka Jock show presented and handled by friend Rose Harry. Whitefall has a strong focus on health and abide by the Dogssa Code of Ethics. All our dogs are house dogs and companions first. Dog profiles and results are on this site. For further information about specific health tests and rearing please contact us. We do not keep a "puppy list" but will check back with enquires when we have successfully whelped a litter.

Breeding for health, soundness and temperament is our top priority and our puppies are raised with us in a loving family environment. We only use low hip score X- rayed and certified, and eye tested. Puppies are vet checked, wormed, vaccinated, micro chipped and registered with DOGS NSW prior to going to their new loving homes. Puppies only available to selected loving forever homes.

"A Jump Ahead of the Rest" Hartwyn are leading Breeders in Australia, which is based on our progeny results, In 48 years, Hartwyn O.E.S. have been very successful in Showing, Obedience, Agility, & more recently Sheep Herding Trials. Our success proves that we breed healthy,& good looking dogs. My litters are raised in a Home environment. This makes sure that the puppies are well socialised. I health check and hip xray my Breeding stock,and have the xrays read and certified so to ensure that I breed with dogs that have better than average hips. All my puppies are wormed, vaccinated and micro chipped. Hartwyn breed sparingly, but we have a waiting list for those who we believe will become loving owners of a well bred Hartwyn Old English Sheepdog puppy.

Have been in the gundog and working dog group show rings for many years, we only breed sound, balanced pet and show quality dogs for approved homes.

Started in the breed over 20 years ago when purchasing from Rick and Kathryn Berwick a show male Ellesmyre Ruffn Tumble. He won baby in group at his first show and we were hooked! He went to win numerous best in group awards as well as Best in Show Awards (all breeds/ and specialty) and become my first champion so a wonderful start with the breed.
