Strollins Farm
Meet the breeder
I'm Carolyn S., the breeder behind Strollins Farm located in Sedalia, MO. Implementing a program that encompasses all aspects of ethical breeding is important to us. Not only do we health test our adults BEFORE we breed, we also feel it's important to socialize them properly to ensure a smooth and positive transition into your family.
Q. & A. with Carolyn
Why did you start breeding?
While we do not own livestock, our town is a big community of farmers and livestock owners where stock/herding dogs are sought after. We knew we could provide a quality stock dog or wonderful companion. Our female and intact male are both extremely agile, high energy and have incredible temperaments and herding instincts.What makes your program special?
Blessed to be retired early, focused time is given to all our pets. Pups are born & raised indoors for first 4 weeks, crated overnight indoors & trained individually in basic commands. They are socialized with our dogs, indoor & outdoor cats, chickens & the neighborhood. (Kids and Adults) Your trust and investment in us doesn't end at the sale, we are here for you and your puppy for life.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Meadow
Meadow is 19" at the withers. Her veterinarian is Dr. McNeal at Thompson Hills Animal Clinic in Sedalia, MO. Meadow is a peacemaker, always breaking up scuffles between her brother, Yo-Yo and her breeding mate, Frisco. She is a very patient girl, getting along exceptionally well with our Maine Coon cats, outdoor barn cats and chickens. She is extremely agile, the fastest of our aussies and can jump straight up in the air like a gazelle, with the greatest of ease.

Australian Shepherd
About Frisco
Frisco, our big thunder paws.. Frisco is a whopping 60 lbs at 1 year old. While he is VERY energetic, able to jump straight up in the air a few feet with ease, he has the most sweet and patient temperament. He has been "uncle Frisco" to Meadow's previous litter, and now has become a wonderful daddy to his own litter.. Cleaning them, cuddling them. He loves to play.. One of our roosters and Frisco are best buds. He loves to chase the barn cats but never hurts them, they even cuddle together. He's the same with our indoor Maine Coons. His favorite toy is a KONG frisbee and he LOVES his jolly ball. He likes to fetch and likes keep away even more. ;) He is incredibly fast for such a big boy.. His parents both have spot on OFAs. Frisco has one copy of DM but it won't affect his health. He is registered with AKC and ASDR
