Meet the breeder

I'm Anne M., the breeder behind Kizmit Farmz located in Stockton, MO. At Kizmit Farmz, we love everything about Miniature American/Miniature Australian Shepherds! It is this love and passion for the breed that first inspired us to contribute to and improve the breed through thoughtful and intentional breeding practices. We are state registered hobby and show breeders focusing on superior health, temperament and confirmation in our puppies. We achieve these goals by genetically testing our dogs to ensure strong genetic lines free of common breed ailments in both parents prior to breeding. Next, we make sure our dog's temperaments are well-suited to family life and to one another, ensuring you an even-tempered partner-in-crime. Last, but not least, we actively participate in AKC confirmation & rally shows (Miniature American Shepherd) and ASDR confirmation & rally shows (Miniature Australian Shepherd). A side note on the breed title - they are the same dog, they just have a different title depending upon their registry, in our case Miniature American Shepherds through AKC and Miniature Australian Shepherds through ASDR. If you'd like to learn more about any of our parents, their puppies, or our program feel free to reach out anytime, you know we love talking Mini's!

Q. & A. with Anne

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We began breeding after falling head over heals in love with our first MAS! Once we realized how amazing this breed is, we knew we without a doubt that we wanted to help this breed grow through careful and thoughtful breeding practices. To give you an idea of what this looks like for us, each of our dogs are an active and integral part of our family which spans from competing together in the show ring to just hanging out watching TV together. When it comes to our puppies, each litter is hand delivered in my bedroom, where I carefully watch over the litter and their mom for the first few weeks of life. Once our pups transition from new born puppies, to toddler puppies they move to the main part of our house where they have a dedicated puppy room with access to an outdoor play yard via a doggy door. They also explore the main part of our home where they are pre-loved by our kids and harassed by our cat. We feel this lifestyle lets our puppies have a safe home environment where they are exposed to all the normal sounds and activities of a busy household, which will make their transition home to you as smooth as possible.

  • What makes your program special?

    Let me start by saying our dogs are spoiled family members who take center stage in our lives! We place the highest priority on their physical and emotional health. We conduct DNA testing prior to breeding, we feed Hill's Science Diet along with quality vitamins and probiotics, and we engage in age appropriate mental & physical stimulation and ongoing training all to help ensure we are producing the healthiest, happiest puppies around! We truly love what we do!

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include blue merle, black tri, red tri, red merle, and black. Miniature American Shepherd puppies include red & white, black & white, red tri-color, black tri, black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Anne was perfect to work with. We had our dog for 16 years and when we had to say good-bye, it crushed out hearts. When we started looking for a new dog, we found Anne and her puppies. She was so sympathetic to our situation, answered all of our questions and was a dream to work with. You can tell that Anne loves all of her puppies and wants to make sure they go to good homes with families that will love them. Anne sent us updated pictures and what our puppy liked so we could be prepared for him. On our day to pick Sunny up, she made it very easy for us and we were so excited to meet her and Sunny. I would recommend Anne and Kizmit Farmz to anyone and we hope to work with her in the future.

    We are so grateful to have our sweet Henley from Anne! I truly can’t say enough great things about her and Kizmit Farmz. She is very communicative, knowledgeable and always answers our questions! She provides consistent pupdates, which we loved! It’s very apparent that she puts so much care into her pups and dogs and prioritizes their health and well being. Our take home bag was thoughtful and well organized, with everything we needed to feel prepared when picking up Henley! Henley is such a sweet boy, and you can tell he’s been surrounded by love from the very beginning. If we ever decide to add another pup to our family, we will absolutely go through Anne again!

    Anne was so knowledgeable and kept me updated every step of the way. My Winnie is beautiful and so loving. Anne already had Winnie partially house trained. I couldn’t be happier to have my Winnie!

    Anne was really quick to respond to questions or concerns about our pup, and was even kind enough to let us split up the payment when we fell a little short (both payments still on-website). We’re very happy to have gotten our new boy from her!

    Anne was great to work with. We bought a puppy for part of my daughter’s graduation gift, so my wife and I, and Ms. Anne was all in on the surprise! It was great. Our new addition to the family has been awesome. We bought a Miniature Australian Shepherd! Very smart dog.. Anne is wonderful to buy from and work with. She gets 5 gold stars!

    Anne was so very helpful in the process of getting my Australian shepherd. She answered and continues to answer all my questions. While my puppy was at Kizmit Farmz before I could adopt him I can tell that he got exceptional care. Anne is very knowledgeable in breeding and how to raise puppies. I would recommend Kizmit Farmz to anyone!
