I'm Stefanie F., the breeder behind Vistar Aussies located in Warrensburg, MO. We are located in Central Missouri on a 20 acre hobby farm with pond, horses and plenty of Aussies. We breed ASCA/AKC and ASDR registered Australian Shepherd to breed standard. All of our dogs are a part of our family and this is their forever home. They spend most of their time as family in our house and roaming the property with my boys, barn cats, and horses. Puppies are family/farm-raised and will be very socialized.
Q. & A. with Stefanie
Why did you start breeding?
About 6 years ago I got my first Australian Shepherd and totally fell in love with the breed. Since then I am breeding, raising and training them.
What makes your program special?
I strive for healthy puppies with a good temperament. I place puppies for emotional support animals, therapy dogs, and service dogs.
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.
