Dyna Aussies
Meet the breeder
I'm Dakota M., the breeder behind Dyna Aussies located in Vona, CO. We decided to start a responsible, in-home breeding program in order to produce quality farm dogs that also fit into a home setting. We focus on breeding dogs that have enough drive on the farm to keep up with our lifestyle, but also have amazing temperaments and can quickly adapt to a calm family setting.
Q. & A. with Dakota
