Eldorado Ranch Mini Aussies

Jennifer W.

Breeder of Miniature Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Jennifer W., the breeder behind Eldorado Ranch Mini Aussies located in New Waverly, TX. Eldorado Aussies is a family-owned Mini-Aussie farm dedicated to maintaining the quality and breed character of the Mini Aussie. Bred as a working stock dog Aussies and Mini Aussies have strong herding and guarding instincts. They are exceptionally intelligent and loyal making great companions. Mini Aussies are tireless and enthusiastic workers. Due to their protective nature, they can be reserved with strangers but should not present as shy. Although they dominate their herds assertively, aggression or viciousness is not acceptable in the breed standard.

Q. & A. with Jennifer

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We have a small ranch in New Waverly Texas and when we got our first two Mini Aussies and fell in love with the breed so wholeheartedly, we decided that we could commit our time to produce occasional litters of beautiful Mini Aussies with fabulous temperaments and health. After our first litter, we were forever hooked!

  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs are our family members, each with their own quirks and unique personalities. Puppies are raised in our home, in an environment where they are loved on every day, and introduced early to the idea of experiencing life as an opportunity. We strive to produce confident, healthy, and beautiful lifetime companions and family members.

  • 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, black tri, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation
