Meet the breeder

I'm Maryna W., the breeder behind Shooting Star Ranch located in Morgan, TX. As conscientious breeders, we are proud of the loving, smart, beautiful, and healthy puppies we’re able to provide for others. Our breeding program started with one small litter that turned into a fulfilling, lifelong passion! We believe there’s no greater joy than providing families with companions that share unconditional love no matter what. We live on a 5 acres by the lake Whitney, TX . We have lots of threes and a big pond where our dogs and puppies have fun and enjoy swimming. Also, we have chickens and gazillions of squirrels.

Q. & A. with Maryna

  • What makes your program special?

    Puppies raised by Shooting Star Ranch are temperament evaluated and placed in family based on their personality and drive. New owners will have a life breeder support. Puppies are given only the best nutrition, Mom's milk, delicious mush, high quality kibble and treats. We start potty training when puppies are 3 weeks old. They become familiar with a doggy door. These puppies are regularly receiving baths, nail trimming and lots of kisses. Our program includes a crate and an early basic manners training and get them well-prepped for a smooth transition to their forever homes. We do early ENS( Early Neurological Stimulation), ESI Early Scent Introduction and ESS (Early sound stimulation) starting from the 3rd day of life. Please contact us if you need an advance training like walking on/off leash, heel, stay, obedience and commands of your needs. We will provide new owners with information and materials how to raise your puppy, vaccines and de-worming schedule and much more to help you to get prepared for your new furry family member.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have rough coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

    Our 12 week old border collie, Scout, is energetic, smart, confident and eager to learn. This speaks to the success of Maryna's breeding program. I was surprised that he was already house broken at 8 weeks when we got him. Maryna was super helpful, and always answered messages immediately. We are very pleased. Highest rating!

    This was one the best, and most fun experiences we’ve ever had!!! This was me and my husbands first time getting a puppy together, and we loved every step of the way!!! Maryna and Eric were SO helpful, and kind, and friendly! Maryna would give us the sweetest video/photo updates, all the way until we finally got our little Frida girl!!!!! So lucky to have found them and gotten the best girl!!! Frida is beautiful, smart, independent, and simply the sweetest!! We love her so much and are forever grateful 🤍

    We had the most perfect experience with Maryna and Eric at Shooting Star Ranch. They were incredibly knowledgeable, prompt, and accommodating. They walked with us every single step of the way, from sending consistent pictures/videos and updates about our puppy, all the way to making an 18 hour drive to drop our puppy off at our home for us! They have not only have extensive expertise with their breed but also clearly put incredible care and compassion into each puppy. We will be forever grateful to Maryna and Eric for helping us welcome our newest (and furriest) family member. We would absolutely recommend working with them and give them only our highest reviews!

    Adding Candy to our family has been a wonderful experience since day one. After looking at many puppies and their breeders, I finally felt confident in Maryna knowledge and care for her puppies and their parents. Candy stayed a few extra weeks for a personal training and it was amazing to see how much she learned with Maryna. I am eternally grateful to Maryna and her husband for giving so much dedication, such great care and love to their dogs and allowing us to find such a wonderful puppy to become part of our pack. Thank you!!

    Maryna and her husband were just amazing and helpful from picking up our new member to answering questions from us all. She provided resources and toys and always responds within a few moments.

    It was wonderful to work with Maryna. She is a very thorough and responsible breeder. She addressed all of my worries and concerns as a first time dog owner. She walked us through the entire process since the very first day. And we finally met with our adorable puppy Winter. He is a healthy and highly intelligent puppy, who was able to make friends with his feline brother.
