Meet the breeder

I'm Maggie W., the breeder behind Maggie Withers' Australian Shepherds located in Russell Springs, KY. I strive to produce quality puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive and have wonderful temperaments. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize each of my puppies’ overall health and temperament and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for before joining their forever homes.

Q. & A. with Maggie

Why did you start breeding?
My love for Australian Shepherds inspired me to share this amazing breed with the world in a responsible way. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others. It has been an absolute joy of a journey and I'm blessed to do what I do.
What makes your program special?
I run a small, in-home breeding program where I prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that I can. I cherish all of my animals and enjoy sharing the love of this wonderful breed with other individuals and families! I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one in an enriching and loving home that will match their temperament and personality. I love what I do and truly want the very best for my puppies and their forever families.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include 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.

I am so grateful for my puppy from Maggie! She took the time to schedule a phone call to answer all my questions about him and aussies. She provided photo updates and a puppy take home kit to make sure the ride and flight home with my new pup would be easy as can be!

We were having trouble finding a local breeder and hadn't used Good Dog before but couldnt pass on the opportunity to adopt Teddy! He checked every breed and personality trait we were looking for and Maggie made it such an easy process. She was very responsive and flexible. It was obvious from our interactions that she had a wealth of knowledge, experience and loved the breed and her pups very much. We would definitely recommend Maggie to anyone looking to adopt a quality, highly intelligent & lovable Aussie!
