Asturias Miniature American Shepherds
Meet the breeder
I'm Carol B., the breeder behind Asturias Miniature American Shepherds located in Owensville Missouri, MO. I take pride in breeding quality puppies and strive for perfection in health and sound temperament. They are raised as family! My priorities when breeding are health and temperament, and I strive to improve the line with each generation by seeking out complementary traits in compatible puppy parents.
Q. & A. with Carol
Why did you start breeding?
I built my program with care and intention in every step. I am passionate about the health and wellbeing of this breed, and I want my program to be an example of how to responsibly breed high-quality, healthy dogs.What makes your program special?
Because my program is small, I am able to give each dog and puppy all of the attention and care that they need to develop and thrive. My dogs are my family, and I give that same love to each puppy as I prepare them to join their forever homes.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
