Meet the breeder

I'm Jennifer H., the breeder behind NorthBeach Aussies located in Saint Augustine, FL. We have dedicated ourselves to preserving our wonderful breed by competing in conformation, dock diving, agility, rally, and herding. But before all of that our dogs are our family and with that said we strive to provide all of our puppy families happy and healthy puppies that thrive as companions.

Q. & A. with Jennifer

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I after many years of learning our breed standard and showing my dogs to AKC championships I bred my first litter of puppies and from there my passion for preserving this breed has grown.
  • What makes your program special?

    I strive to breed healthy and sound puppies. All of my adult dogs have been cleared for hip and elbow dysplasia, by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) they have their eyes cleared annually by a board-certified ophthalmologist for hereditary eye defects. As well as they have had all of the appropriate genetic testing done through PawPrint Genetics.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
