"Bringing the past into the future"
Since 1972


About Us...
  Ragtime was established by Leslie Sharp in the early 70's,  her foundation  sire"RAGS" ASCA Ch.Sharp's Ragnar earned the second Champion title issued by ASCA . My mother Teresa Pollitt (left) aquired her first aussie who was a double "RAGS" grandson, "BUDDY" ASCA Ch. Ragnar's Muddy Buddy (Pictured bottom left) in 1974  thru Leslie who she showed horses with.
   Eventually, Leslie got out of aussies and sold the kennal name RAGTIME to my mother in 1980. My mother continued  to show and breed on a limited basis.When I was old enough I started showing in junior handling. I accomplished regional awards,  500 club status and multiple Best Junior Handler awards in ASCA & AKC . I co-bred my first litter with my mother when I was 12 years old and the first was titled  the next  year "FUZZ" Ragtimes Pink Rags CDX, DNAcp. I went on to finish my junior handling dog "BROOK" ASCA & AKC Ch. Ragtimes Little Degash Brook  and the  rest is history.
