Hope & Grace Kennels

Sherrie C.

Breeder of Miniature Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Sherrie C., the breeder behind Hope & Grace Kennels located in Pleasanton, KS. I raise well-minded pups that I want to share with other families. I take great pride in and love each of my dogs and puppies! The sweet, loyal, and playful disposition of my dogs inspired me to begin responsibly breeding to expand the breed and share them with others.

Q. & A. with Sherrie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I connected with a Mini Aussie pup about 3 years ago. She became my companion dog. I have loved and enjoyed her so much that I wanted to share the love that comes from this breed with others.
  • What makes your program special?

    My pups have been loved from day one by myself and my grandchildren. Our pups are socialized, leash broken, litter box trained, and started on kennel training.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
