Hi, we’re Heidi & Ryan! We live in Huntsville, Ontario with our two kids Madeline & Hudson, our two pups Lexi & Leif, & our cat Dash. We built our dream home here in Muskoka, but a house wouldn’t be a home without a dog, so as soon as our house was finished, we welcomed Lexi to our family.

We both grew up with dogs, Ryan on a farm & Heidi in the ‘sticks’, so the question was never ‘should we get a dog’, but ‘what kind of dog should we get?’. Heidi grew up with Australian Shepherds, so she already knew it was a breed she would love; friendly, loyal, gentle, energetic, & smart. When we saw Lexi for the first time her bright blue eyes, her colourful coat, & her zest for life were simply irresistible. We knew Lexi needed a playmate though, so we welcomed Leif into the family two years later. Ryan’s sister is the owner of the elite Swissridge Kennels, so breeding our pups came as a natural next-step.

Here at Algonquin Aussies, our biggest priorities are happiness and healthiness. Our puppies are raised in our home with loads of love and care and we have many acres for them to explore and a cozy home for them to rest and grow. We also do strict health and DNA tests on our dogs to ensure we are offering you the best pups possible.

We are so excited that you are here and we can’t wait to share a part of our hearts with you!
