WELCOME TO RUSTY ROSE RANCH

Welcome to Rusty Rose Ranch! We are a breeder of AKC Miniature American Shepherds (originally known as mini aussies). We are members of AKC's "Bred with H.E.A.R.T" program. The main goal of our program is to produce functional, intelligent, athletic, high-drive sport dogs. All dogs we produce keep their natural tails and front dewclaws. All adults are health tested to OFA standards.  We are active in several organizations including MASCUSA, MAMASC, ASDR, UKC, ASCA, UKI and AKC. Our primary focus is agility and rally. We breed very rarely (only when we want a puppy to keep). Our puppies are raised with a combination of ENS, Avidog and Puppy Culture protocols. Our dogs are generally only suitable for experienced homes, as we do not breed for the novice pet market. If you're looking for a more low-key family pet, please contact us and we will be glad to recommend another reputable breeder. 

Are you an experienced upper-level Agility or Rally competitor? We offer special pricing to active agility/rally homes. Please message us for details.
