I'm Monique F., the breeder behind Topaz Aussie’s located in Tucson, AZ. It is our goal to produce adorable, affectionate, healthy, well-tempered puppies. No matter your lifestyle we have the perfect pup just waiting for you. We devote our time to each puppy, teaching them basic skills that help them transition into their new homes to help them be the best companions possible. We teach litter box training, potty training and begin foundation around basic commands.
Q. & A. with Monique
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding when I was diagnosed with health problems. My Aussie has helped me through many challenging times and I wanted to offer that same opportunity to others!
What makes your program special?
My breeding program is special because I only have 1 Dam and 1 litter at a time. This allows me the time to find quality homes for my pups and offer them the best care available to me while they are here with me. I invest all my time into the health and well being of the litter and Dam.
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.

About Bonnie
Bonnie is a loyal loving girl. She enjoys playing with her toys and going for walk. She’s not a huge fan of water but doesn’t mind being groomed or bathed. She loves to snuggle and can follow me wherever I may go. Bonnie is good with kids and other animals. She has been known to steal a piece of pizza off the counter or steak off the table. Bonnie always makes us laugh and knows when someone isn’t feeling well. She makes it her job to protect and watch over until you feel better.

Big fun loving guy. Clyde aims to please and spends his most devoted moments showering people with love.
