Meet the breeder

I'm Carrie H., the breeder behind Aussies Of Circle H located in Dundee, OH. We strive to raise healthy, well-rounded Australian Shepherd puppies who grow into great companions! We cherish each of our dogs and puppies, and give them enrichment opportunities. That includes everything from choosing healthy, health tested parents with good temperaments.

Q. & A. with Carrie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We got our first Aussie to help our children, recover traumatic experiences with other large breed dogs. The Aussies are so loyal to their people and were so loving that we decided to spread the love to other families. It is so reassuring to me when I see the dogs laying in the yard watching my children play. Their presence is another layer of protection for them and brings me so much comfort

  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs work with us and the livestock, and I realized the importance of ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) and ESI (Early Scent Introduction, as well as the daily "Puppy Massages" that we perform daily beginning at 3 days of age. Striving to continue my education on the breed , as well as breeding practices and genetic health is vital to the integrity of the breed.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include 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.

    Working with Carrie was so wonderful, we couldn’t be happier with our puppy Winnie! She goes about her breeding program with so much intention and care. We received regular updates on our puppy and she answered all of our questions. He is such a sweet well tempered puppy, and gets along amazingly with our older Aussie. Truly such a great experience getting a dog through Carrie and couldn’t have asked for a better pup to add to our family!

    Carrie made the entire process of bringing Rumi home such a joy. She kept me updated every single week with photos and notes, and it meant so much to see Rumi grow before she ever came home. You can tell she puts real care into her puppies and their families. Rumi is healthy, confident, and so well-started thanks to the time and love Carrie puts in. I’m really grateful I found her.

    I had such a wonderful experience with my breeder, Carrie! From the beginning, she was incredibly communicative and supportive. She sent weekly pictures and videos of our sweet girl, always keeping me updated and involved in the process. She answered every single one of my questions with patience and kindness. When we met her in person, she was so kind and personable. You can truly tell how much she cares about her dogs! Every puppy is clearly loved, well-socialized, and well-taken care of. It’s obvious that she puts her heart into her breeding program. I couldn’t be happier with my puppy and with the entire experience. I highly recommend Carrie to anyone who is looking for a responsible, caring and attentive breeder.

    I received my new little bestie who I named Murphy from Carrie about 2 1/2 weeks ago. I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very first message, the breeder was warm, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can tell they truly care about their dogs and put so much love and intention into their breeding program. Carrie sent weekly picture and video updates, kept me informed of the puppies journey and answered any and all of my questions. She cares so much for these little ones and the entire experience / process exceeded my expectations. She introduced the puppies to sounds, smells, leashes and collars, constructed personality tests, provided information about treats, toys, food and their future before they leaving her home. The transition was smooth, and my puppy is settling in. She has even answered some questions I have had since I have had him that have really helped me. I’m beyond grateful to have found such a responsible, ethical breeder who genuinely wants the best for their puppies and their future families. I can’t recommend Carrie enough. I really did my homework and spoke to about 15 different breeders before deciding on a puppy. If you’re looking for an Aussie from a reliable breeder who goes above and beyond for your future little one, look no further! Carrie is the BEST!

    This was our first time going through a search site like Good Dog. We came across Aussies of Circle H and reached out with some basic questions. Carrie was super responsive and informative. Once we made the decision to select a puppy, Carrie kept us updated on a weekly basis with pictures and videos of our growing pup! We were so excited for pick up day. It was great working with Carrie. She was kind, provided take home materials, and it was evident they value a positive experience for both the pups as the grow and the owners to be!

    We had a great experience with getting our puppy from Carrie and Aussies of Circle H. You can tell that she really loves and cares for her dogs just by looking at her Facebook or Instagram. She would send us weekly updates with either a photo or video of our boy. Carrie goes above and beyond as a breeder with all the health testing she has done and the personality tests that she does with each puppy to let you know their strengths and weaknesses. For only being 8 weeks old our boy is so laid back and so well behaved. We are so happy with our little boy and I will definitely recommend Carrie and her family for anyone looking for an Australian Shepherd!
