Puppies will have had their tails docked and dew claws removed, be on a on a worming schedule, will have age appropriate vaccinations, micro-chipped and started on crate, leash and potty training. The puppies will have lots of travel time, traveled to homes of friends and family, exposed to other dogs, cats. etc.... We try to familiarize them with many new and different sounds, sites and experiences as they grow up. Pups will come with a health guarantee and puppy packet. All pups are sold as companion only and must be spayed or neutered unless other arrangements have been made. We have taken most of our dogs to AKC as Miniature American Shepherds.

***Pending - A puppy that is being evaluated for show/breed, this puppy could become AVAILABLE at 8-10 weeks. A deposit may also be received pending availability (Interested parties should inquire).

We generally evaluate pups at 8 weeks for personality and structure/conformation, pending results, a pup(s) may be retained or placed in co-own or show home. We are very selective in retaining pups for our program as we are striving to maintain the integrity of the breed and still have great personalities. All puppies are quality individuals but some just have the stronger traits needed to improve our program. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.

Delivery assistance available in CA, ID, NV, OR and surrounding states.

This sweet guy has very nice structure and has the most gorgeous hair coat.

Quite outgoing and independent, higher drive, he loves treats and praise! Puff is very possibly going to mature as show/breed quality, he is also interested in watching the sheep, so possibly a herding and/or performance prospect!

Available as a pet or co-own.

Last 4 are current pictures, as you see, he loves to fetch and play with the ball!

Puppies are placed by evaluating their personalities and matched to their new families. We will make every attempt to offer a pup to you that matches your color request and preference for a male or female. Sometimes this is just not possible, a new litter is always a surprise as we never know what we will have for coat or eye color, boy or girl until arrival. Our main concern is that both you and your puppy are happy!

Updated

Our puppy prices vary depending on companion or show/breed evaluation. Deposit of $250 is non-refundable but we are willing to transfer it to the next litter should we not have a match in this one. Puppies are available in the order of deposits received. Please be prepared to answer questions so we may best match a pup to your request and lifestyle. Please feel free to contact us with any questions. Breeder reserves the right to first choice of all litters. Our pups are registered with AKC.

AKC Miniature American Shepherds

We implemented a large portion of the "Puppy Culture Program" with our litters to better prepare them for their new homes. Please click on the link for more information. This program makes a huge difference in teaching them to accept different life situations, assists with socialization, grooming and manners. The puppies are handled multiple times daily, exposed to new objects, floor surfaces and noises. We highly recommend that you enroll your new puppy in obedience classes to have the most success for a great placement. While we have been raising Mini Aussies for several years, using Puppy Culture in conjunction with some practices we alreay have in place, makes a huge difference having a well adjusted pup.

Please be sure to review information on the "Aussie Info" page! Thank you!
