I'm Kristin C., the breeder behind Kristin Cox's Miniature Australian Shepherds located in Grandview, TX. We raise high-quality Mini Aussies. Our dams and sires are health tested and come from impeccable bloodlines. We love our pup! Your puppy will be highly socialized, loved, and handled every day before it comes home to you. We take great care planning each litter to ensure we are producing puppies that are excellent representations of the breed.

Q. & A. with Kristin

Why did you start breeding?
I have a small breeding herd to establish the perfect puppy for your home. My goal is to bring you the same joy I felt many years ago when I got my first Aussie. Growing up on a farm, I was very familiar with breeding and it felt like the natural thing to do.
What makes your program special?
I am a small breeder allowing me to give each of my puppies, dogs, and breedings the proper care and attention they each deserve. I am dedicated to providing happy, healthy, and well-socialized pups for others to welcome into their family. I love my pups and know you will love them, too!
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue merle and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
