A long time love affair with Australian Shepherds has brought us to our love of the Miniature American Shepherd and our first import into South Australia.
From Hampton Hills Miniature American Shepherds comes "Arwen" - Hampton Hills Faith Works @ Windybrae and a wonderful friendship and mentorship with her breeder, Jennifer Hampton.
MAS, as they are affectionately known, are becoming a very popular breed in the country for those of us with a love of "Aussies" who wanted something a bit smaller. To have such an excellent quality young dog as a foundation to our small breeding program, is indeed an honour and a privilege.
Several people unfamiliar with MAS have said, "Oh, she looks just like an Aussie." Indeed they should look exactly like an Australian Shepherd, only smaller.
Arwen has tested clear for Neuroaxonal Dystrophy (NAD) and non-HSF4 cataracts. The rest of her DNA testing has also now been completed and she is completely clear of all inheritable diseases. Eye clearances are done yearly (clear as of June 2024 under the ORCHID/ACES scheme) and hip & elbow xrays are to be completed some time after 2 years of age.
In time, Arwen will be bred to imported semen in close consultation with her breeder.
Our goal for our breeding program is to produce quality over quantity and dogs that best fit the breed standard and with great temperaments.
Tayona Australian Shepherds and Miniature American Shepherds
We have been showing and breeding Aussies since 2004
AND she has arrived!!!
Am Ch Hearthside Clever Endeavor (Imp USA) - Spice - MAS.
Spice is as her name suggests - She has a spicy Delightful temperament.
She is 15 inches or 38.1 cm tall. and a spicy red head to boot.
Spice is spunky and fun.
We will be campaigning Spice to her Australian Title before her first litter in a couple of years.
If you love Aussies but the size may not be for you. Keep an eye out for the MAS.
I will be looking at importing semen from OS for future litters.
Stay tuned for updates.
Her first litter will be in 2024/25

I have loved and admired "Miniature American Shepherds" for over 30 years, and it has always been on my bucket list to import and breed these beautiful dogs here in New Zealand. It is a long and expensive process to import these dogs from USA - do all the genetic testing + Hips Elbows and Eyes, I now have some beautiful foundation dogs to begin my lines of Miniature American Shepherds. I bought my first dogs for New Zealand in 2018. All my dogs are AKC registered MAS. I have a co-home breeder in Australia as well. We share 7 imported USA dogs.
