South Creek Farms is a mini-farm in western Washington state located less than an hour’s drive from Tacoma, WA. We breed beautiful ASDR registered miniature Australian Shepherds who enjoy running our Pacific Northwest farmland. We pride our purebred line in keeping with the grace and beauty that comes with the highest standards of this beautiful breed of dog. The Australian Shepherd is a well-balanced dog that is animated and attentive, showing their strength and stamina combined with exceptional agility.
Are you aware that Australian Shepherds should not have certain medications do to the MDR1 gene?
Ex: Ivomec, Heartgard, Acepromazine (this information will be included in the puppy packet)
An Aussie’s coat should never be shaved. (a trim is ok)
Aussies are herders and may nip heels and knock down children.
May also want to chase cars, people, and livestock
Do you know what will happen if you breed a merle dog to another merle dog?
At least 25% of puppies will be hearing and/or vision impaired their whole life.
It is very important for the puppy to get all the necessary immunizations for its age. The puppy should not be taken to public areas, where other dog’s immunization history is unknown, until the puppy has had all necessary immunizations.
