Meet the breeder
I'm Maleika G., the breeder behind Comfy Cozy Kennel located in Harker Heights, TX. We raise our puppies inside our home along side our dams and sires. We litter train, take on car rides, vacuuming, grooming and kenneling. With 7 kids and 3 grandkids, these pups get lots of hands on. We have lots of information on bringing an Australian Shepherd home to set you up for success ❤️🏡.
Q. & A. with Maleika
Why did you start breeding?
The desire of finding the perfect match ❤️ 🏡 🐶 Being able to love on each litter and give them a great start to an amazing life! Watching them learn and explore the first 8 weeks has been the best experience! Each day is something new and exciting! For someone who has ADHD, it has been a perfect fit! I don't do well with the same every day and nor do the puppies ❤️What makes your program special?
We are all about getting puppies into the right homes. We learn which dogs like to be in cars. Who is mischievous and needs a closer eye. Setting them up for success is the most important thing to us ❤️What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black & white, blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Program update on 12 Jan. •…Saphy and Potato are still 👀 for their furever homes 🥰 They have both done amazing in the car. Saphy enjoys the console carrier while potato prefers a lap. They have done amazing during their weekly nail clipping. Potato's favorite spot to hang out is in the shark. Saphy prefers the elevated puppy bed. Both have taken to toys very well. Recall is going well with their current names. Kiss noises also work. Potato has started using the litter tray in wide open space this week!!! So proud of him

Parent dogs
Ginger, mom
Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Ginger
This lovely 4-year-old female is the heart of our breeding program — because of her incredible sweetness, calm temperament, and excellent health background. Temperament & Personality She’s super loving, people-oriented, and thrives on affection. While she may not win any obedience championships anytime soon, her gentle, easygoing nature makes her a joy to have around. She’s a great companion to children and other animals, and her puppies tend to inherit her sweet and stable disposition. Energy & Drive She has a medium drive — energetic enough to enjoy outdoor adventures and play, but equally content to lounge at your feet. This balanced energy level makes her puppies well-suited for a variety of homes, from active families to laid-back households. Health & Registration ASDR Registered (American Stock Dog Registry) Clear Full Health Panel – She has been genetically tested and cleared for all breed-specific conditions, giving peace of mind for the long-term health of her offspring. Breeding Qualities At 4 years old, she’s at a prime age for producing healthy, well-rounded puppies. She has already proven to be a nurturing, attentive mother, and her litters have shown consistency in temperament and conformation. We breed her responsibly, ensuring proper recovery between litters and placing the highest priority on her health and well-being.
