Welcome to Epiphany
Epiphany is a small breeding program located in South Georgia. We strive to produce quality Australian Shepherds that meet the breed standard with a primary focus on health, temperament, structure. Our dogs are shown in conformation, are herding instinct tested, and compete in various sports such as agility, rally, barn hunt, scent work, and dock diving.
All of our breeding dogs are genetically tested through Paw Print Genetics and have their OFA hips, elbows, and eyes completed before breeding. We breed to preserve the breed we know and love and only breed those that meet the breed standard. But, most importantly we strive to breed wonderful companions with sound temperaments.

I handle, groom, and train everyone myself. My dogs are first and foremost family members and everyone lives in my house with me.
My love for animals started when I was very young. I used to sit in my living room watching Westminster, The National Dog Show, and Agility Trials wishing I could do something like that. I fell in love with the Aussie breed when I was 10 years old and finally convinced my parents to let me purchase my first Aussie at 12, Sadie. At 14 I brought home my first show prospect, Bailie, who is bred by Juli Wiseman. I owe many thanks to Juli for being a fabulous mentor and taking a chance on the teenager who wanted to start showing.
