Meet the breeder

I'm Ann W., the breeder behind Warren’s Colorado Mini Aussies located in Berthoud, CO. Aussies are the most fun, loving and energetic dogs ever. The perfect family member, companion, and pet. The most loyal of the loyal. We strive to make sure every owner has the ability to get the very best out of their puppy.

Q. & A. with Ann

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We researched the breed and fell in love. We got our first Aussie in 2014. After a lot of research, we decided to breed her. We had her tested, found the perfect stud in 2016, and the rest is history!
  • What makes your program special?

    These dogs are our top priority. We dedicate our time, our energy & our love to these dogs and their little ones. We want to breed healthy, sound, and well-rounded pups so others may enjoy them as much as we do. We use Puppy Culture to imprint and train them, to help them get the best start they possibly can. We run full panel DNA tests on all of our breeders and are striving for totally clear dogs and pups.
  • 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 are blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
