Meet the breeder
I'm Leigh M., the breeder behind Pleasant Grove Aussies located in Crockett, TX. "We consider all our Australian Shepherds as part of our family and treat them accordingly. They are allowed to live inside the house, climb on our furniture, and even sleep with us in our beds. Before breeding, we conduct genetic tests to detect any diseases that may affect Aussies. We cherish the bond with our Aussie families and love to keep in touch with them. When you adopt a pup from Pleasant Grove, you become a part of our family.".
Q. & A. with Leigh
Why did you start breeding?
In 2010, we rescued a standard Aussie. Although she required a lot of work, we fell in love with the breed- so much so that we decided to get an Australian Shepherd puppy for each of our 3 children. Later, I discovered the Toy Aussie and decided to breed them myself. After searching for the perfect male and female, I began breeding in 2019 to improve the breed and bring joy to families.What makes your program special?
"I am a responsible breeder who carefully plans each breeding, often sacrificing sleep to ensure the safe arrival of each puppy. I devote weeks and even months to closely monitoring and training the puppies, ensuring they are well-prepared to join their furever families when the time comes."What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include tiny and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Toy Australian Shepherd puppies include black, red, blue merle, and red merle. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include blue merle, black tri, red tri, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Litter update on 16 Mar •…Today’s forecast: 100% chance of puppies with a high probability of milk drunks. 🐶🥛 Mama is doing all the work while the freeloaders pile on like it’s an all-you-can-eat buffet. One’s asleep on the job, one’s climbing the snack bar, and one appears to be negotiating directly with management. The struggle is real… but the tips are terrible. 😂 #PuppyPileUp #MilkBarOpen #TinyFreeloaders

+4I got my little girl willow from Leigh and she was absolutely amazing, it was my first time buying a puppy online, and not in person, I was worried about trusting putting a deposit down on a puppy and getting scammed, but Leigh was amazing, and the fear was calmed, I got pup-dates often, and was able to ask any questions I needed to. I got my little girl from her, and she was happy and healthy, full of love and ready for cuddles. She has been such a awesome pup to add to my program and cannot wait to see what the future holds for her. Thank you Leigh for all you do.

We are so fortunate to have found Leigh and Pleasant Grove Aussies. From Day 1 she answered all of our questions, shared updates of Ellie with us and coordinated pickup for a date that was convenient for us. She provided all vet documentation, a blanket and a bag of puppy food for us to help adjust quickly. Ellie has the sweetest disposition and was puppy pad trained when she came home. Leigh made sure to expose Ellie and her brothers to different environments as they grew, and you can tell that she was raised with lots of love and attention. We highly recommend Pleasant Grove Aussies if you are looking for a great puppy to join your family. Thank you, Leigh!
