Q. & A. with Annette
Why did you start breeding?
We got our first Aussie when we moved to our farm 15 years ago. That started my love for the breed, then for my birthday in 2011 my husband and kids gave me a Toy Aussie. That’s all it took. I was hooked to this breed. I’ve always wanted to raise dogs, just wasn’t sure which breed and also needed to convince my husband this would be a good idea.What makes your program special?
We strive to raise healthy, good temperament, well-socialized puppies. We give them a great start in life which helps them transition to their new furever homes much easier.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
