Meet the breeder

I'm McKenna T., the breeder behind Circle T Mini Aussies located in Apache Junction, AZ. We breed high-quality puppies. We love what we do and are committed to producing well-bred, healthy puppies for loving homes. The loyalty and loving disposition of this breed are simply the best! We put a great deal of effort into raising our litters to ensure our puppy families will have the best experience raising their new family members.

Q. & A. with McKenna

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I am a Veterinary Technician and have always loved the breeding side of the work. I always wanted to be a vet and have my own breeding stock with horses and dog. As of right now we are just breeding dogs but hopefully soon a few of our horses.

  • What makes your program special?

    We like to follow the Badass Breeder program and that allows us to place each puppy in a good home where they will strive.

  • 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.

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

    Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Toy Australian Shepherd puppies include black tri, blue merle, red merle, and red tri. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
