I'm Haley Y., the breeder behind Yost Family Mini Aussies located in Vacaville, CA. We raise our litters in our home with a very hands on approach. By the time these guys are ready to go to their forever homes they will have already been introduced to litter pain training as well as well socialized. Our dogs are bred for health, temperament, and intelligence.
Q. & A. with Haley
Why did you start breeding?
I travel all around the US for my day job and our very first Breeding female Ellie was my traveling companion and she turned heads with her amazing demeanor and beauty and I then started looking into breeding these amazing animals to share how special they are with the world.
What makes your program special?
We are not a big time breeder. We raise dogs to be family dogs and companions. We are not in this for the turn around profit we want to share our love for this breed as well as preserve the great breed.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies include tiny and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue merle and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
