Q. & A. with Cyndee
Why did you start breeding?
My love for miniature Australian Shepherds inspired me to share this amazing breed with the world in a responsible way. I wanted to give back to the breed by producing healthy puppies and placing them into loving homes. These dogs have proven to be wonderful companions in my life, and it is a privilege to share that love and friendship with others.
What makes your program special?
I do everything I can to ensure my puppies have everything they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs. I have high expectations for my puppies and strive to place each puppy in an enriching and loving home! In my breeding program, good health and temperament are essential, cuteness is guaranteed, and lots of love is always included.
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 blue merle, red merle, red, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
