Q. & A. with Daniel
Why did you start breeding?
This journey began by the grace of God and a deep love for Miniature Australian Shepherds.
What started as a calling has grown into a purpose — to raise well-tempered, healthy, and loving dogs from our home to yours. Each puppy is a reflection of our faith, care, and the joy these amazing dogs bring into our lives.
What makes your program special?
At the heart of our breeding program is a deep commitment to temperament, health, and personality.
Every dog in our care is raised in our home, health-tested, and nurtured with our own hands. We believe that responsible breeding starts with love, continues with science, and is sustained by a genuine connection to every dog we raise.
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 include blue merle, black tri, red tri, red merle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
