Meet the breeder
I'm Meredith S., the breeder behind Central Florida Australian Shepherds located in Frostproof, FL. Quality, health-tested, and socialized dogs are the principal components of our success as reputable breeders. We’re proud of the seamless transition our puppies are able to make as fun, lovable family members. Our puppies are raised on a farm and are exposed to children, adults, and animals daily.
Q. & A. with Meredith
Why did you start breeding?
My passion for Australian Shepherds started when I bought my dog Remi, an Australian Shepherd x Blue Heeler. I love all of the Australian Shepherd traits that he carried and decided to purchase a registered Australian Shepherd male. My sister-in-law bought a registered female and together we started a small breeding program.What makes your program special?
Our puppies are raised around horses, cows, cats, and other older dogs. They get accustomed to lots of people, sights, and sounds on a daily basis. Our daughter loves cuddles with the puppies. We only breed a couple litters a year and we really focus on producing excellent puppies from well thought out pairings. Our puppies receive individual attention. We support our puppies throughout the duration of their lives, not just while they are here with us.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

+5Meredith was awesome every step of the way! She answered all the questions we had in a timely manner and shared a lot of updates and pictures of how our puppy was doing and growing after we had reserved her. Nova (Bonnie) loved the blanket and toys Meredith gifted us with, and she came home a very happy, healthy, and confident puppy!
