Q. & A. with Cori
Why did you start breeding?
I got into breeding mini aussies to share my love of this breed with others. I love what I do and work very hard to offer a healthy well rounded puppy to join a home. I stay up to date on research and methods to enhance the puppy’s quality of life in the immediate but lifelong 💕What makes your program special?
Our pups are born on our farm and get to experience life on the farm both inside and outside including other animals and all ages of kids. They come into the world with love, early neurological stimulation, socialization to every day stressors and health certifications from our vet. Our breeding program is special because we carefully choose each prospect and always look to better our program.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include tiny and miniature sizes. Aussiedoodle puppies include toy and mini sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Toy Australian Shepherd puppies include red, black, blue merle, and red merle. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include blue merle, red merle, red, and black. Australian Shepherd puppies include black, red merle, blue merle, red, and dilute blue. Aussiedoodle puppies are apricot. Miniature American Shepherd puppies include red tri-color, black tri, red merle, and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?

About Grace
Grace is a focused, loyal, agile and beautiful girl with striking blue eyes.

Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Fancy
Fancy is an all around stunner. She has striking colors, laid back demeanor, aims to please, is quiet and doesn’t yap/bark, smart as a whip and loves to snuggle. Fancy quietly follows me around the place, loves outings, hasn’t met a person she doesn’t like and never turns her nose up to treat. The good Lord blessed us with Fancy and now we’re offering up her pups to be blessing to others. Fancy carries 1 copy of MDR1 and it takes two copies to be considered positive. Fancy carrying one copy does not affect her health or longevity and is solely a caution to the veterinary on what meds to steer clear of however we treat all our aussies regardless of the situation like they’re MDR1 positive.

We lost our soulmate mini Aussie Sadie Nov 8, 2024… and asked her to send us another dog when we were ready. At first we thought of getting a rescue, or older dog… not sure we could go through puppyhood again. We checked out several breeders, and then found Cori and V5 Aussies. We fell in love through video with Winnie (who is now Lizzie), who was 10 weeks old. Cori worked with us so that we could take our planned trip to Japan, and we paid for boarding and the training package. She and Duane arranged a meet up so we could see her in person, and then met us 1/2 way for final pick up. We have now had Lizzie for 10 days and she is the BEST pup! SMART, snuggly, funny, joyful and easy to build on the solid foundation of training she received. We couldn’t be happier… Cori is thoughtful and caring, and easy to work with… and breeds stunning Aussies. Highly recommend her.

+5Working with Cori from V5 Puppies was such a wonderful experience. From the very beginning, you can tell how deeply she cares for her puppies and how knowledgeable she is about raising and matching them to the right families. Our little guy, formerly Buzz (now Bodi), is 15 weeks old and already the joy of our lives. We told Cori the type of temperament we were looking for, and she matched us absolutely perfectly—Bodi’s demeanor fits us to a tee, he is actually very calm for the most part and has his little Aussie zoomies every now and again. The communication was excellent, and we loved receiving videos and updates that made the wait so special. It’s clear that Cori runs an outstanding breeding program built on love and care. We couldn’t be happier, and we would absolutely choose her again for another puppy. We’re so grateful to have Bodi in our lives as we ended up losing our senior puppy 3 weeks after picking up Bodi so we definitely feel extra blessed to have this bundle of joy to get us through the hard loss and grief. We can’t wait to share a very long, happy journey with this little guy!

Cori was terrific. She communicated well when we were asking questions about getting a puppy and was helpful with sending pictures, videos, and coordinating a pick up. Our puppy has been home a few months and is a wonderful dog.

Cori is a very knowledgeable and caring breeder. Her experience and progressive training of her puppies is top notch. Our puppy tolerated the 6 hour car ride without any issues. He took to his crate without any whining or complaints. He knew what the pee pads were for. He knew to sit to be petted. He is healthy and happy and well adjusted. I would happily work with Cori again. I can’t say enough good things about her!!

+4Cori is an excellent Mini Australian Shepherd breeder and trainer. She and her family showed lots of photos and videos of the puppies over time highlighting what the puppies were learning along the way. That made it very easy to see that her program is highly effective which ensured that our puppy came as a confident, mannerly, and trainable puppy. Duane (from V5) made it possible for us to purchase Piglet (our puppy) because he could deliver him to us even though we live far away. We would not have been able to pick him up ourselves. V5 is a very reliable operation, following through on every promise. Piglet came with goodies to help us transition him to our home. We got an excellent explanation of food, vet paperwork, microchip information, and a book with loads of tips to help our puppy become a good fit with our family. We have only had Piglet a short time, but he more than we could ever have imagined! Thank you Cori and Duane from V5 Aussies!
