Meet the breeder
I'm Heather E., the breeder behind Sheep Creek Aussies located in Kidder, MO. Our goal is to raise quality Australian Shepherd puppies that both Sheep Creek Aussies and you can be proud of! We breed to the Aussie standard and we aim to better the breed overall. We carefully help our families find the perfect match for companionship. We would be overjoyed to connect you with your next beloved puppy!
Q. & A. with Heather
Why did you start breeding?
When I was younger, my family raised Lhasa’s. It was a really great experience. Because of my love for animals, and with me being home for work, I really wanted to get back into breeding. I had 2 really beautiful sound Aussies, so we decided it was a great time to start. I found a new passion I love. The Aussies are our pets first and foremost, and what a great way to share the breed with others!What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is special in that we’re not a large kennel, and our Aussies and our puppies get actual hands-on human interaction than other “kennel” operations I’ve seen. I prefer buying from smaller breeding programs as well. We’re also very affordable, as I’ve been told by my buyers, compared to others. Our dogs are AKC registered and are quality Aussies, so we’re also proud to hear that!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red merle, blue merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Ember, mom
Australian Shepherd
About Ember
Ember is our “velcro” aussie, for sure! She loves her mama. She goes with her anywhere she goes. (Don’t feel bad for the others...she loves the other family members, too!...she will show them all kinds of love and affection, but she just prefers her mom if she had to choose. 🥰) Ember is also the protector of the home. She is probably the ONLY aussie that will not greet you with a kiss. It takes a few minutes for her to warm up to strangers, but once she does, all is well in the world again...just don’t move to fast or reappear when she’s not expecting it LOL! She’s not aggressive by any means, but she will definitely let others know their boundaries on our property. She’s a very active girl, runs and plays with the other dogs and does like to work with the goats, but she prefers to be with her mom the most. She loves to work and loves to fetch. She is so funny and quirky, sometimes she leaps like a deer when she’s excited fetching a toy. She’s one of the sweetest, most loving girls we’ve got on our farm. If you’re looking for a velcro pup, this mama is definitely the one who will provide you with the perfect companion puppy! Ember is 100% clear of all genetic diseases, and is dual registered with the AKC and ASCA.
Aspen, mom
Australian Shepherd
About Aspen
Aspen is our gentle, sweet big girl. She is one of our largest girls on the farm. She is very mild mannered, very laid back and has a sweet, soft disposition. She comes to greet everyone with a kiss and a lot of butt wiggles, and when she jumps up to see anyone, it feels like her paws are clouds. She has the lightest touch. She loves to cuddle and snuggle (and sometimes thinks she is still a lap dog 😂), and would prefer to lay back and enjoy the AC. She is not a working dog on our farm, and really has never shown any interest. She came from more of a show line than a working line. She does enjoy playing with her other aussie friends, and loves a short game of fetch, but she will let you know when she is finished! She is definitely our sweetest, most mild mannered girl on the farm, and we love her soft, gentle ways! She’s such a sweet, good girl! Aspen is a carrier of DM. (1 copy, so she is not affected, and will not affect offspring, as we have no males who are carriers.) She is clear for all other genetic diseases. She was a NBT (natural bobbed-tail) so she does carry that genetic trait. Aspen is registered with AKC.
