Allambie Koolies has been a dedicated breeder of Koolies since 2006, proudly registered with the Koolie Club of Australia. Nestled on a small property near Malanda, North Queensland, the business operates a diverse farm that includes a small herd of cattle, Boer goats, and Meatmaster sheep, along with the occasional duck. This environment not only provides a natural setting for the Koolies to thrive but also serves as a training ground for their herding instincts. The Koolies bred at Allambie are not just working dogs; they are cherished family companions, equally at home in the paddocks or relaxing on the patio.
The breeding philosophy at Allambie Koolies emphasizes the importance of work ethic, health, and temperament in their dogs. Each Koolie is carefully selected based on its ability to perform herding tasks, as well as its overall health and personality traits. The puppies are raised in a nurturing environment, integrated into the daily lives of the family to ensure they are well-socialized and develop outgoing personalities. All puppies receive regular veterinary care, including vaccinations, microchipping, and registration with the Koolie Club of Australia, ensuring they are healthy and ready for their new homes.
In addition to their commitment to breeding high-quality Koolies, Allambie Koolies has embraced modern practices such as DNA testing to enhance the health and genetic diversity of their dogs. By utilizing reputable DNA testing services, they aim to eradicate genetic diseases within the breed while maintaining transparency with potential buyers. The business operates on a limited breeding schedule, producing only two to three litters per year based on demand, and offers a rehoming policy for dogs if needed. With a focus on responsible breeding and a passion for the Koolie breed, Allambie Koolies continues to be a trusted name in the community for both working and companion dogs.
