Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Molly
This girl is the sweetest soul! She’s incredibly calm, eager to please, and was the easiest puppy I’ve ever trained. She loves people, enjoys affection, and has a gentle, loving nature. Her wonderful temperament and intelligence make her an exceptional mom-to-be — we expect her puppies to be just as sweet and easy to train as she is.

About Rooster
Rooster is the total package! He has all the qualities you look for in a stud - calm, easy going, loving, affectionate and loyal. The looks are just an added bonus! He also comes from a pedigree stacked with champion bloodlines and has a show record himself. Rooster doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body and loves meeting new people and dogs. He has produced some of the most stunning puppies with good looks and temperament.

Her intelligence is evident in her keen responsiveness and eagerness to learn, making her not only a pleasure to work with but also an exceptional representative of her breed.

Kari has been amazing throughout our journey! She responded quickly to all my many emails and sent fun pictures of my baby. She's a responsible breeder and my Tucker is a testament to her love of the breed. He's a healthy, happy puppy and he got his start with a wonderful person, Kari!

Kari is a wonderful breeder--her parent dogs are much loved pets, as are each of their puppies. Our Mika was so sweet and well socialized when she arrived. She was crate trained already, on her way to being potty trained, and up to date on her shots. We have stayed in touch with Kari throughout the year and have sent pictures. Kari remains interested and attached to her puppies. She is everything you'd hope a breeder would be, a lover of animals who is obviously guided by their best interests. (Also FYI, our Mika is a blue-eyed beauty. Our vet always says, "Jeeze, she's ridiculously beautiful." ) Check out Kari's Mini Aussies on Instagram or FB, you'll be able to tell instantly how intentionally Kari brings the little ones into the world.

Kari was informative and helpful when I got my Charlie Girl (Parsley) in March 2025. Charlie Girl is smart and loving and eager to learn. I love her sooooo much! I would recommend a puppy from Rooster and Emmy. ❤️❤️❤️ Kari is great!
