Q. & A. with Lisa
Why did you start breeding?
My kids have learned to raise many farm animals over the years, but until 2023, there had never been a litter of puppies! All of our previous dogs and cats had been fixed. Our children range in age from 10 to 22 years old and are enjoying the project of raising a few excellent litters of puppies!What makes your program special?
Our dogs are our family members. They live with us and do life with us. We have lots of children and they love pets, too. We are very dedicated to what we do and what we aim to achieve as breeders. We work with passion, heart, and integrity, and we want nothing more than to see each and every one of our puppies loved!What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Poodle puppies are standard size. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Aussiedoodle puppies include mini and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Poodle puppies include cream, red, white, and parti. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are red merle. Aussiedoodle puppies include brown and white, blue merle, red merle, black and white, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Litter update on 08 Nov. •Just wanted to update everyone. We have deposits on 6 of the 8 puppies. There is only 1 boy and 1 girl not officially spoken for at this time. Message me if you need more details. Pogo is still available but I have interest in him and two of the three girls are to be determined right now. We should have them assigned to their families next week. Thanks for following along.

Program update on 03 Nov. •…We have had several families interested from far away places! I just wanted to communicate that there are several independent transport services available through Citizen Shipper. If you are interested in a puppy and it would be more convenient for a transport service to deliver the puppy to your home, this is a great resource. We have had puppies transported using citizen shipper on two occasions in the past and it has been a good experience so far. The way that works is 1) an application for transport is completed 2) then you will receive bids for the transport. Some transports will be for a private transport for just the one dog or maybe four dogs that are going in the same direction or maybe a few more than that. But generally, it's a van of some sort that an individual owns and uses for this service. I think it's a pretty nice service. 3) once you've reviewed bids and selected which person or company that you would like to work with, you will exchange additional information about the specifics of pickup and drop off times and they will make sure that your loved one gets from a to b safely. I hope this helps. Anyone who has questions. There are also independent companies that you may be able to locate that are not with citizen shipper, but I think using this program helps the company be more reputable. You can use a coupon code.

About Sandy
Standard poodle, red with white markings. We found Sandy through a friend of a friend last year. She is the most calm and gentle natured dog. Even captured the heart of my brother who is not a big fan of dogs. She is well mannered. She loves to slow dance with you.

About Duke
Duke lives with my mother in law as her emotional support dog. He is a puppy from Rosie's first doodle litter in 2023. He is a good natured dog who is good around other dogs and cats. He visits sometimes but lives in the next town. Very smart! He loves the water and playing fetch.

Miniature Australian Shepherd
About Rosie
Rosie is my dream girl. She came from a nearby breeder whom I had reached out to about a red merle mini aussie puppy. She was born shortly after and became our Covid lockdown puppy. I chose her before she even opened those beautiful blue eyes. She is a good natured girl, food motivated, friendly and lives here in the home with us and other dogs. http://embk.me/rosie3108?utm_campaign=cns_ref_dog_pub_profile&utm_medium=other&utm_source=embark

Lisa was very responsive and managed to accommodate us on short notice. We came to look at puppies in less than 24hr after sending our first message. All the dogs at the home seemed very happy and well taken care of, I especially liked that we got to meet our puppy’s mom and get a feel for her temperament/behavior. Our little Remy (formerly poppy) is such a sweetie and we’re quick to recommend this breeder to friends and family who may be interested

Lisa is awesome to deal with and our puppy Lily is wonderful little nugget. Very sweet with a playful temperament and well behaved (for a puppy). She's fearless and determined that everyone is her friend.

Lisa & her family are absolutely AMAZING! They made getting our little guy, Bear, off them such a painless process! We were so blessed to run across their family. Bear is well mannered, loves to play, potty trained & the sweetest! ❤️ I love how well socialized he is & we can tell he was loved on continently by Lisa & her family! I would not hesitate to get another puppy from them! Highly recommend!

Lisa was so great to work with and very quick to respond to any questions. I met Lisa and her family when I went to meet Daisy and they were so sweet and helpful. Of course when I saw Daisy I had to have her. Joan A.

Lisa was an absolute pleasure to work with. Very responsive always sending updates and photos. I have nothing but positive things to say about her and her family. We are about a week in and our puppy is doing great! Our three boys are loving every minute of it. He is very sweet and loving, it is abundantly clear he came from a place that loved and cared for him unconditionally. I highly recommend her as a breeder.

Verified owner · June 2025
I had a wonderful experience working with Lisa. She was quick to respond, answered all questions, and provided updates on Zori’s appointments and health. She is an ethical and trustworthy breeder, who genuinely cares about the animals she raises. I’ve had Zori home for about two months now, and she has a clean bill of health and is just the sweetest dog. She’s friendly, playful, and loves people. You can tell she was nurtured and well looked after. This is the first dog I’ve ever purchased, so I was especially anxious about the trustworthiness of this app and its listings, but I can say with confidence that Lisa is someone I would recommend to my friends and family to work with :)
