Breeder of Miniature Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Ashley D., the breeder behind Dobbs Mini Farm located in Chester, IL. We’re devoted to ensuring there are healthy puppies for others to enjoy and we do so by responsibly growing this incredible breed. We have developed several protocols to ensure the health and well-being of all of our dogs. It’s our top priority to make sure each of our puppy families welcomes a happy and healthy new family member into their homes!

Q. & A. with Ashley

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I’ve always had dogs growing up. When I purchased my first Mini Aussie it took time to talk with different breeders to find the one I was looking for. I want to help improve the breed, educate people about the breed and most importantly help families find the perfect addition to their family. It’s rewarding, a lot of patience, and a great willingness to learn.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include tiny and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blue merle, red, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
