Q. & A. with Cindy
Why did you start breeding?
My family has been breeding Australian Shepherds, Huskys, and Pomeranians for over 25 years! My favorite breed is Australian Shepherd as they are great working dogs and family dogs. With my family retiring from breeding their last Husky litter, I wanted to continue providing families with amazing Aussies puppies while doing what I love!What makes your program special?
We give 24/7 attention and care to each puppy. We start deworming and socializing at a very young age and once reserved we train them with their chosen name and prepare them for their forever home. Our puppies are for “pet” family homes only. Therefore we Do NOT Dock our puppies' tails.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
