There is no way that we could go about updating this site without a sincere thanks to our friend and mentor, Alison Smith.

Alison owns Paradox Australian Shepherds.  She bred and co-owns both of our Aussies, Kismet and Kharma.  There are very few breeders as responsible and dedicated, or people more genuine and down-to-earth as Alison.  I have absolute confidence in referring anyone considering this breed to her.  If you are considering adding an Australian Shepherd to your family, you won't go wrong talking it over with Alison to see if one might fit into your household.
