This is our story and breeding program.

Flying D Kennels is a family-run Australian Cattle Dog breeding program in Oklahoma. Our dogs are part of our everyday life, growing up alongside our family and experiencing the same world our puppies will eventually join.

We have been breeding Australian Cattle Dogs since 2018, with a focus on producing healthy, versatile dogs with the intelligence, athleticism, structure, temperament, and drive that make this breed so special.

Our dogs are more than breeding stock. They are our companions, our competitors, our farm dogs, and part of our family.

We love the Australian Cattle Dog for its combination of intelligence, loyalty, athleticism, resilience, and versatility.

Originally developed to work cattle across the harsh Australian landscape, the breed was built to think independently, work hard, and stay with its handler. Those same qualities make today's ACD capable of excelling in everything from farm work and dog sports to hiking, camping, and active family life.

They aren't the easiest breed—and that's part of what we love about them.

A well-raised ACD is a dog you can build a relationship with, challenge, train, and take along for the adventure.

We are committed to producing Australian Cattle Dogs that are capable of being both accomplished working and performance dogs and wonderful family companions.

Our breeding decisions take into account health, structure, temperament, pedigree, working ability, athleticism, and the individual strengths of each dog.

Our breeding dogs receive appropriate health testing, including OFA and PennHIP evaluations as applicable, BAER hearing testing, and genetic health testing. We believe responsible breeding means looking at the whole dog—not simply one health test or one title.

Our breeding dogs live as part of our family and are active participants in our lives. We believe that living with our dogs, training them, showing them, and experiencing their personalities firsthand helps us make better breeding decisions.

We enjoy participating in AKC conformation and performance events, and we are proud of the accomplishments our dogs and their owners have achieved together.

But titles are only part of the story.

Not all pets are show dogs, but all of our show dogs are pets.

We want our dogs to be able to step into the show ring, go hiking with their families, work on a farm, compete in a sport, or simply spend an evening at home with the people they love.

Our responsibility doesn't end when a puppy leaves our farm.

We carefully consider the homes we place our puppies in because we want each dog to have the opportunity to thrive in the life it was chosen for.

Our puppies have gone on to become beloved family companions, farm dogs, performance dogs, show dogs, and adventure partners.

We love hearing from our families and seeing what these dogs accomplish throughout their lives.

Flying D Kennels has been an AKC-registered breeding program since 2018 and was recognized as an AKC Breeder of Merit in 2025.

We are proud of the dogs we have produced, the families who have trusted us with their next dog, and the work we continue to put into improving and preserving this remarkable breed.
