Getting a puppy from Kathy

Kathy has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Kathy partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.

“Breeder reserves the right to choose and to keep the top two picks in the litter. Puppies will be matched on the basis of temperament and sex first. We do not place puppies solely on color alone. Puppies will be evaluated by the breeder at 8 weeks of age. After that time, available puppies will be matched with their forever families based on their puppy application and the temperaments of each individual puppy.”

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and $1,600 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“Puppies are examined by the veterinarian, dewormed, and receive their first vaccination before going to their new homes. A deposit guarantees you a beautiful puppy that will be an invaluable member of your family. I will work with each family to choose the puppy that will he the best fit for them.”

Contract & health guarantee

Kathy may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase.

Parent health testing

Breeder-Reported Testing

Great level

Kamar’s Mini American Shepherds reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Miniature Australian Shepherds.

Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
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).
