Meet the breeder
I'm Ruth B., the breeder behind High Desert Aussies located in Crestline, OH. Our puppies are raised inside with a loving family atmosphere. When old enough they are socialized to many things on the farm. Horses other dogs chickens cats many different varieties of farm life. They live in our home and are happy healthy puppies. When old enough they have lots of outside play time. Tails and dew claws are removed. They will be up to date on shots and worming. Our puppies will be great athletic or working dogs. They're very socialized when they find their new forever person in their new forever home.
Q. & A. with Ruth
Why did you start breeding?
I first fell in love with the breed 25 years ago. Then my husband and I were raising Border Collies. Although I still love the Border Collie, 20 years ago I got my first Australian shepherd. I have been hooked ever since. They're such a beautiful breed so loyal and loving.What makes your program special?
I breed a high quality Australian shepherd. Although the parents are double registered, I sell unpapered puppies. It makes the puppies more reasonably priced. Everyone should have the opportunity to have such a wonderful family member.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.
