I'm Ann D., the breeder behind Noble Custom Mini and Toy Aussies located in Lake Junaluska, NC. I strive to produce outstanding puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive and have wonderful temperaments. I take my job seriously, knowing that my puppies will become someone's well-loved pet. Each puppy is considered a member of my family and I ensure they are socialized, healthy, and prepared to excel in their forever homes. My dogs are bred for those specifics and I take pride in my breeding program.
