Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Carolina Pride Aussies located in Harmony, NC. We understand the responsibility of purposefully breeding in order to do better for the breed and the families that love them! It’s been such a pleasure to be able to watch every stage of puppy life! We’re so lucky to be able to do this and match wonderful families with our perfect puppies.
