Meet the breeder

I'm Cheryl G., the breeder behind Gamber Australian Shepherds located in East Lansing, MI. All puppies have parents who are cleared by OFA for hips and elbows, have current CERF exams, and have complete Australian Shepherd DNA panels. We breed for ourselves first, we do not have litters very often. We strive for correct conformation and temperament for show and also athleticism for performance. Our dogs are our family pets, we do not have a kennel.

Q. & A. with Cheryl

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We raised dachshunds for many years. When we got our first Australian Shepherd we began showing on a limited basis again and decided to have our first Aussie litter in 2017.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.
