"Ash" June 20, 1998-April 24, 2007	Laura and "Ash" enjoying the holidays during our last Christmas with him, 2006.. You are always in our hearts, Ash, and still so terribly missed.  This is the kind of warm affection and devotion we admire in the Australian Shepherd breed...
"'Ash River's Josh" Blue Merle   NSDR , w/  ASCA backgrounds	In addition to his handsome demeanor and beautiful markings, Josh has a wonderful temperament.  He is "happy go lucky" and mild mannered.  He has an outgoing and friendly personality - he never meets a stranger.  He loves to play, but his favorite past time is laying at my feet enjoying the afternoon on our porch.  He passes a wonderful disposition to all his babies,  and his loving devotion is truly a blessing to  our family here at Ash River.
"Captain" Black Bi Male NSDR, with AKC and ASCA Backgrounds Josh's Son, and The Grandson of our "Founder", Ash	"Captain" by the same Boulder River in Montana that his Grandfather was photographed beside, and played in years before him... It seems so fitting that he should carry on Ash's "river" of Blessing and Love;  flowing on in just the same manner as the waters of the Boulder.  "Captain" is a spark of joy! His vibrant personality is a mirror of his mother, Perris, who is Ash's daughter.  He is not only beautiful on the outside, but his loving and enthusiastic temperament has endeared him to us as beautiful on the inside as well.  He is a wonderful part of our lives, and we are so fortunate to have him as part of our Aussie Family... He is the first of our sires to incorporate the lineage of both Ash and Josh... we find this such an exciting thing, that both of these beloved dogs are carried on by the "Captain of Ash River" !
