Meet the breeder
I'm Deidre B., the breeder behind Arena Valley Acres located in Parma, ID. At Arena Valley Acres we started our program with a love for Australian Shepherds. Eventually we added a poodle to our program. Aussiedoodles are a delight and I am amazed at the breed. I believe in breeding for temperament and health first and raising excellent companion pets of high quality.
Q. & A. with Deidre
Why did you start breeding?
Research, research and more research. My children are grown and a breeding program was something I wanted to develop once I had more time to focus on it. I have a wonderful mentor who has helped guide me along the way. My program is small to keep it about the quality and enjoyment of breeding successfully and responsibly.What makes your program special?
I put a lot of time and energy into developing my program to be of high quality. The proper diet, housing, exercise, training, whelping and socializing are a must for my program. I have invested in programs (Puppy Culture and BadAss Breeder) to help raise high-quality puppies. My dogs are all registered with the AKC and ASDR. I complete all health testing on my breeding dogs and they are clear.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Aussiedoodle puppies include mini and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include red & white, black & white, blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Aussiedoodle puppies include brown and white, blue merle, red merle, black and white, black tri-color, red phantom, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We had a great experience with Deidre. Our pup came home healthy, well-socialized, and clearly well cared for. Deidre responded quickly to our questions and genuinely cared about her puppies. We looked forward to her video updates as the pups matured. Deidre was spot on in her assessment of the temperment of the pup we chose and the pup has settled in perfectly in our family.

Deidre was absolutely amazing to work with. She was very responsive throughout the entire process, even after we brought our pup home. She also provided us with helpful resources that have made training much easier. We couldn’t be happier with our dog. He has the sweetest temperament, he loves meeting new people and is very playful. We can’t recommend her enough!

Deidre was fantastic!! We met her at a location and the pickup was very smooth. The puppy was already almost crate-trained and she gave us lots of toys for her to take have when we got home to make her more comfortable. Our puppy is so very smart and beautiful. Couldn’t have asked for a better puppy and better experience!
