Australian Shepherd,Standard Miniature and Toys
Thank you, For taking the time to look at my dogs, I hope you enjoy what you see,
Celebritywards has been breeding Australian Shepherds, Miniature Aussies, and
Toy Aussies since 2005, I fail in love with this breed NO MATTER THE SIZE,
My adult dogs and my puppies are well socialized and cared for, I do not do any
thing my self, My Puppies are seen by a licensed vet as early as 3 days old for
tails and dews to be removed, And then between 6 & 7 weeks old they are seen
again for a complete health check, which I think is the right thing to do as a
breeder,
My vet checks, patellas, ears, eyes, checks for hernias, testicles, bites and hearts,
then he takes there weight and temperature, Vaccinates and worms each puppy,
Then I'm give a clean bill of health ,with vet record to give to all my puppy buyers,
I also think it is very Important as a breeder to do testing on your adult dogs, I do
hips, elbows, patellas and eyes before breeding, I also enjoy showing and have
been showing some of my dogs in the ring and putting Championships on them.

| Home of The Blue Eye Tris |
| I Have produced 33 blue eye tris in the last few years,some with 1 blue eye and some with 2 blue eyes, I do not breed to breed, I breed to produce the best, my dogs look like aussies no matter there size, color or the color of there eyes, there is no genetic health problems with having blue eye tris, THEY ARE NOT RARE, BUT DESIRED, please remember not all blue eye tris are of quality and should not be in a show/breed home but in a pet home, But because they have upped the prices so high a lot of pet quality blue eye tris are being placed in breeding homes, I do not agree with this action, and is not how i place my Blue eye tris, |
My Take on Australian Shepherds of All Sizes
This Breed has been told that there are other breeds mixed in with our dogs, I would have to
agree, many years ago it was told that Australian Shepherds had been mixed with Bernese Mt
dogs to give the breed more height, and Border collie to give our herding breed drive to move
and work, and now we see the breed up to 26' inches and can reach 85 lbs, some would say
this makes a great house dog for the family, and working dog,and a dog to show in the ring,
My take is that even if way back when if someone did cross breed these other dogs into there
lines so many years ago then it could make since in what we all see in this breed of all sizes and
they would all be mixed bred, not just the miniature and toys, except back in the late 80's early
90's the standard Aussies were able to get AKC, ASCA, and N.S.D.R as a Australian
Shepherds and they then now had a registry and became the herding breed.
In the 70' the miniature and toys had started making there way all over and started getting
well recognised and desired by a lot of families do to there size became more desired to fit there
life styles better, They were Registerd with N.S.D.R and then in the 90's became registerd with
2 clubs MASCA and NAMASCUSA and then in 2008 a new registery called ASDR in the 90's is
when the miniatures and toys became so wanted more then a standard aussie it really started
to up set Aussie breeders ,
so they started posting to there sites that a miniature and toy Aussie are not the same breed
and not recognised by AKC/ASCA, in most cases this is true they are not known by
AKC/ASCA and they made sure we would never be in akc/asca as a size variety of the
Australian shepherd, not our doing but some very upset standard breeders made it that way,
not us, Now the Australian Shepherd breeders do produce small Aussies that may finish at 16
inches but they do not want to claim there size seeing that it may show that there standard
Aussies can and will produce small Aussies, that we would call miniatures as under 18' is a
miniature Aussie,
And the miniature breeders find them and buy them and use them to produce type,structure
,quality a out side pedigree and bring the size of our dogs down, so we can keep looking just like
a Australian Shepherd, go in and look around you will see all Sizes in my kennel, I have
standard Aussies that have produced me toys, so please do not get sucked into the drama that
some Australian Shepherd breeders feel may better a sale on a puppy,
There are a lot of good quality miniature and toy breeders out there its all about who is breeding
for the right reasons,Right contract, and the Health of the Breed if you find mini and toy Aussies
out there that do not look like a Aussie it may just of been a hobby breeder who just bred 2
wrong dogs together just as I have seen in Standard Aussies, just keep looking until you find a
breeder and the puppies that best fit for what you are looking for,and the look you like as you
would do in any breed, There is no more or less health issues in the Miniature and toys that are
not in the Australian Shepherd breed.as the Toys and Miniatures have been recognised by
USASA and AKC as a descendent of the Australian Shepherd,
P.S there are miniature size Aussies under 18 inches that do breed for small with AKC papers,
they may not be breeding them for a Standard Aussie Breed Standard, But For a Miniature
Aussie Breed Standard.
It's Really a Shame that the Breed in Whole can't get along, I love the Breed No Matter the
Size.
