Meet the breeder
I'm Michelle P., the breeder behind MP Aussies located in Stratford, WI. Our dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. Our pups are prepared to excel within their forever homes. Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives.
Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
My husband tragically lost his girl and when I started looking for another I couldn't find one in the state. So I ended up going to GA to get one. Since there were not a lot of breeders around I decided to start breeding and improving my program with the highest quality dogs I could get. Now my entire breeding program is both ASCA and AKC registered.What makes your program special?
My breeding dogs have been brought in from all over the country. I strive for excellent temperaments and natural drives so my dogs can excel in the discipline that suits them best. They make excellent agility, herding, and therapy dogs besides being your best friend.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.
