Meet the breeder

I'm Amy B., the breeder behind Mockingbirds American Minis located in Clinton, MO. We do our best to socialize and acclimate each litter so we’re able to offer all-around healthy and well-mannered puppies! Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved. Breeding was a natural next step and we haven’t looked back since! We love to train, show and love Miniature American Shepherds. They are such an amazing and fun breed.

Q. & A. with Amy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I was lucky enough to be born into a family that lived and worked on a farm. My mother has raised Miniature American Shepherds for 30 years. I love that we can spend time together doing the thing that we love. We both have great pride in making the breed better with the dogs we raise.

  • What makes your program special?

    I find it extremely important to raise the best dogs possible to improve the MAS breed. That is my goal. I think the temperament, confirmation and health should be equally important in a dog. I give my puppies the best start they can possibly have with the love and attention I give them.

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

    Our puppies include black tri and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Amy made the process of getting Mindy very user friendly. We couldn't come pick her up right away so Amy was happy to keep her an extra 10-day until we were able to get there. She up-dated us on her progress and training with photos and videos. The pick up process was clean and easy at the KC airport, were we had plenty of time with just a 2 hour layover. Paperwork was all in place to fly her to Florida, and Mindy is as sweet as can be. You can tell that Amy wants all of her pups to succeed, giving them a great home and up bringing before they are adopted.

    Amy is very kind and responsible. Soda is my first dog, so Amy taught me a lot of how to raise a good dog. I can truly feel that she cares and loves her dogs and this breed. The pick up and communication process was very smooth and the paperwork is all ready. We keep in touch constantly after the dog arrived home, she gave me advice now and then. I am very touched and impressed by her professionalism and passion. When the dog got home, I truly realized how a good breeder contributes a good dog and a good breed. My dog doesn't have bad habits and he is a sweet family dog. I cannot see it happen without a good and loving breeder. I am so lucky I met Amy here at Good dog.

    Amy has been incredible to work with. She communicated well throughout the whole process and responded quickly. I enjoyed all the little updates and pictures while I was waiting for a day to pick up the puppy. I could not have asked for a better breeder!!

    We are incredibly grateful to the breeder for our little girl, Bunny! She is healthy, active, and incredibly smart — it was clear from day one that she was raised with love and care. ⠀ Amy was always in touch and answered all our questions. Bunny quickly adjusted to her new home.

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about Amy! From the very beginning, she was kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire adoption process. It’s clear she truly loves and cares for all of her dogs — I honestly wish I could adopt every single one of them! The puppy I brought home from her, Sophie, is absolutely perfect — incredibly well-socialized, confident, and healthy. You can tell she was raised in a loving and thoughtful environment. Amy goes above and beyond to set her puppies (and their new families) up for success. If you’re looking for a breeder who is responsible, compassionate, and genuinely invested in her dogs’ well-being, I couldn’t recommend Amy more highly. This has been such a positive and heartwarming experience!

    Amy was great to work with, she made the whole process a pleasant experience. Amy responded quickly to us from the very beginning and gave us regular updates on our chosen puppy. Darin is 4 months old and is very sweet, well mannered and a calm puppy. He fits right into our family and with our other MAS. We are very pleased and would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to others.
