Meet the breeder

I'm Dennis F., the breeder behind D & L Mini Aussies located in New Plymouth, ID. Our puppies receive love and attention from the moment they are born.

I hope you recognize how awesome this breed is.

Q. & A. with Dennis

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When I was a younger guy, I had an Australian sheapherd appear on the farm. He stank to high heavens, so I bathed him and fed him. He stuck around for 6 months and would make patrol rounds around our farm every morning and help keep the animals in their pens. He was amazing. I fell in love with the Aussie breed and started breeding minis.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our pups are sweet and smart, pure breed and registered through ASDR. I wouldn't say our breeding program is necessarily more special than anybody else's. But we enjoy having these wonderful puppies and intiligent dogs in our homes.
  • 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 and black tri. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
