I'm Tanya T., the breeder behind Double T Aussies located in Stanwood, MI. We breed working dogs and pet Australian Shepherds. We strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy. I am a professional dog trainer raising puppies with amazing foundations. We carefully choose the sire and dam in order to produce the best quality possible. Our goal is to find perfect matches for forever families.
Q. & A. with Tanya
Why did you start breeding?
I am a dog lover and both my husband and I grew up with dogs. We decided to get an Australian Shepherd together and our love grew. We did a lot of research and training with him and when we were expecting our own little one we decided to get our second Aussie which led to wanting to breed working dogs who also can be calm inside pets or therapy dogs.
What makes your program special?
We have Australian Shepherds who produce high drive, athletic working dogs but also calm therapy and pet dogs. We also strive to keep to the true standard Australian Shepherds who are larger and stockier.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Star, mom
Australian Shepherd
About Star
Star is a beautiful athletic girl! She is AKC/ASCA. She is flawless in her movement and is used for agility. Given her age we’ve only started her career there. She’s loyal and a little higher energy. She’s always down for a snuggle and loves to do tricks!
Grizz, dad
Australian Shepherd
About Grizz
Grizzly is an amazing picture of the Australian shepherd breed. He is incredibly loyal, trainable and for the most part mellow mannered. He is still an Aussie and can go all day but he follows his person all day. He’s ready to cuddle at the end of the day. He’s been used for a lot of training classes as a demo dog. I own his mom and dad.
He is ASDR registered but Dam is AKC/ASCA. His dad’s Dam is AKC/ASCA but dad’s dad paperwork got dropped.
If you’re looking for a big pet dog he’s your guy!
