Breeder of Miniature Australian Shepherds

Scroggins, TX

Meet the breeder

I'm Megan C., the breeder behind MAC's Cirkles 8 Aussies located in Scroggins, TX. Our dogs are carefully selected for breeding based on temperament, health and conformation. We strive to produce happy, healthy and well-rounded puppies. We do our best to provide each puppy with a solid start to basic potty training, grooming and obedience so that they can thrive in their new home!

Q. & A. with Megan

Why did you start breeding?
After getting my first Aussie in 2016, I fell completely in love with the breed! The temperament, loyalty and intelligence of an Aussie was unlike any other breed I had previously owned. I spent the next 2 years researching and learning everything I could to responsibly bring more quality Mini Aussies into the world.
What makes your program special?
I am a small breeder who focuses on quality over quantity. I usually have only 1 litter each year. My puppies are raised in my home, underfoot. I spend time with each puppy to ensure they have a solid start on potty training, basic grooming practices and obedience. I believe the time and effort put in for this foundation gives my pups the best chance to thrive in their new homes.
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 red & white, black & white, blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
