Q. & A. with Sarah

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When we got our first Australian Shepherd, she added so much love and joy into our family. She filled a void in us that we didn’t know we had. I just want to be able to share that feeling of happiness with other families. That’s why I started Aussie Odyssey!
  • What makes your program special?

    We believe in quality over quantity. We produce limited litters to ensure we keep our dogs and puppies as happy and healthy as possible.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include red & white, black & white, red merle, blue merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Sarah

Sarah has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Sarah partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 6 weeks old.

"We care deeply about our puppies well-being after they leave us. When placing our puppies with families we take care to make the best match. All our puppies will have temperaments and personalities evaluated after 6 weeks old. This way we can match puppies and families together who best suit each other’s lifestyle. Deposits for puppies will be accepted after evaluations are complete."

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

Aussie Odyssey reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Australian Shepherds.

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1), DNA Disease Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
