Q. & A. with Faith
Why did you start breeding?
Our Mini Aussies have totally captured our hearts. We love the breed and its versatility. They can be couch potatoes with us one minute and out on the farm with the horses the next. We wanted to breed these incredible dogs for others to love and enjoy.
What makes your program special?
We strive for quality, healthy puppies. They are raised with kids and horses. Our dogs are part of our family, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Faith was very responsive and answered any questions I had! She even met us half way when it came to picking up our puppy. She sent weekly updated pictures which were adorable! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a mini aussie!
