Meet the breeder
I'm Mindy W., the breeder behind Groveland's Haus of Aus located in Holly, MI. Welcome to our Haus! We are Aaron and Mindy Williams and are very passionate about this breed. Temperament and health are our top priorities in our mate selection. Our dogs have been DNA tested through Embark and have had their hips, elbows, and eyes graded through OFA.
Q. & A. with Mindy
Why did you start breeding?
We are very passionate about this breed and have come to realize how important health and temperament are. Our goal has become to make sure we provide genetically sound dogs that are your once in a lifetime best friend.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are all in our home with us. The puppies have their own room and are handled and socialized daily. When they go home they will have been exposed to all house hold noises, began their crate training, have began potty training and have been exposed to the bath tub as well as car rides. Our dogs are our Children.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue merle and black tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Australian Shepherd
About Demi
Demi is on the smaller side for an Australian Shepherd, but what she lacks in size she makes up for in personality. She is so sweet and has a strong maternal instinct. She is extremely energetic but does love a good nap.

Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), DNA Disease Panel, Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1)
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
