Q. & A. with Marcia
Why did you start breeding?
We have always loved Australian Shepherds and we had standards off and on for 40 years. When our last standard Aussie passed away, we decided to get a mini girl. She was lonely so we got a boy mini a year later and they became besties. My husband suggested we breed them as a hobby and we fell in love with having puppies. We only breed 1-2 litters a year and want to improve breed standard.What makes your program special?
We never kennel our dogs. Our dogs are part of our family and live with us in our home. We own 4 dogs and only have 2 litters a year. We raise our pups inside with us, giving tons of attention and hands-on raising. We encourage people to visit and get to know their pup before taking them home. We only give the best to our babies as we know they don’t belong to us, but to their new pup parents.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue merle and black tri. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
Georgie, mom
Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Georgie
Georgie is 16" at the shoulders and weighs 30 lbs at maturity. She has 2 blue eyes and wonderful red coloring and tan points. She is 2 years old and has been genetically tested for all health diseases. She carries one copy of the DM gene, which will not affect her health and she carries one copy of the MDR1 gene, which is a slight allergy to certain medications which is avoided with many other choices that do the same thing. She has a wonderful disposition and confirmation. She loves all people, especially children, and is calm and loving dog. She is 100% Timberline pedigree and I purchased her from Maggie Bullock, the owner of Timberline Kennels.
