AL Riley Aussies

Meet the breeder

I'm Aly B., the breeder behind AL Riley Aussies located in Gilmer, TX. We are pet owners first and foremost. All of our puppies are raised as members of our family until they’re ready to join yours. The sweet, loyal, and playful disposition of our dogs inspired us to begin responsibly breeding to expand the breed and share them with others.

Q. & A. with Aly

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I acquired my first aussie in February of 2022. He however did not pass the needed health screenings to be a breeding dog so he was just the family pet up until his passing in January of 2023. I have since then acquired two breeding dogs, a young male and a breeding female. I want others to be able to experience the wonderful breed and have a loving pet like I have been able to have.
  • What makes your program special?

    All of my dogs are part of the family and very spoiled. Puppies will be treated the same up until they are ready to be parts of a new living family
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include red merle and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
