Shadow's Aussie Crossing
Meet the breeder
I'm Koren O., the breeder behind Shadow's Aussie Crossing located in Castalia, OH. My dogs are loved and live in my home. They are registered and I do my best to follow regulations to keep the breed at the highest quality possible.
Q. & A. with Koren
Why did you start breeding?
Healthy is top on my priority list, followed by their temperament. I try to ensure I match families with the temperament of puppies before color or eye color. I also make sure my puppy family’s know all about Aussies specifically. This is their new family member, they need to know all the details just like they would their new baby.What makes your program special?
I try to keep in contact with all puppies and their families! Knowing that I have placed puppies in homes that are fully in love with them! I also ensure puppies are as healthy before placing them.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
