Meet Toni Robbins — Founder

A Healer. A Steward.
A Woman of Calling.

17 years ago a passion for Australian Shepherds became a calling. Today TAGA Ranch is one of the most credentialed, holistically advanced, and faith-guided breeding programs in the entire United States.

I have had animals my entire life. It started with horses — and over the years shifted to dogs. Today I am blessed with both. My journey with Australian Shepherds began managing a horse barn where my boss kept four to six Aussies at any given time. I witnessed firsthand their loyalty, their love, their velcro devotion — and I was forever changed.

Through years working in grain, agronomy, and the feed industry — talking with feed salesmen, running feed mill sites — I began to see the truth. What we are told about nutrition and what is actually in our products are two very different things. I could not unsee it.

That realization took me to Mexico, where I sought answers for my own health and discovered the power of frequencies, detoxing, and bringing the body into homeostasis. What I learned about human healing, I began applying to our animals — because what is pumped into them is often worse than what goes into us.

I have been through real trauma in my life. My dogs pulled me through my darkest days. These animals are part of my healing — and I have been able to share that healing with hundreds of families across this country.

This is why we are a ministry. This is why our ranch is a sanctuary. I left a career to be here — on the ranch, with our animals, with our horses and our dogs — doing the work I was called to do.

"To do the best I can — with the knowledge I keep gaining — to shift the focus to the health and healing of people and pets." — Toni Robbins
