MT Heart Mini Australian Shepherds

Meet the breeder

I'm Pony A., the breeder behind MT Heart Mini Australian Shepherds located in Jefferson County, CO. My focus is on producing top-quality puppies to the breed standard, with exceptional noses and natural instincts. I devote my time, energy, and attention to each litter to ensure my puppies get the best start in life. I take pride in training dogs for gun sniffing and police work, and I enjoy placing puppies in loving homes.

Q. & A. with Pony

  • Why did you start breeding?

    A consistent love for the Australian Shepherd breed and dog training encouraged the beginning of MT Heart Mini Australian Shepherds. It is a passion of mine to raise and train gun-sniffing dogs and police dogs. Any pup that is not selected for the program is placed only in the best of homes after screening.
  • What makes your program special?

    I take pride in raising well-tempered and socialized puppies who can excel in the important work of keeping communities safe. I have high standards when it comes to breeding, training, and socializing my dogs, and all of my dogs are exceptional. Those that do not enter the working program are placed in loving family homes that I have reviewed carefully, and they make wonderful companions.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
