Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Fruition Farms located in Gainesville, FL. Our dogs are bred for health and temperament with a focus on conformation, athleticism, and intelligence. We are dedicated to providing our families with wonderful, healthy, and happy family pets. We consider ourselves breed ambassadors and strive to improve the breed by continuously breeding according to the AKC breed standard. We breed specifically for conformation show dogs, but this breed is very versatile and has many capabilities. Breeding and showing the Miniature American Shepherd is a dream come to FRUITION for us. If it is a dream for you to own a Miniature American Shepherd, we look forward to making this a reality for you as well.

Jeremy’s experience

  • About Jeremy

    I am an avid dog lover and have had a passion for showing animals since a young age. I first starting showing dogs in conformation in 2018 and have since had the pleasure of handling several incredible dogs of multiple breeds.

  • What makes Jeremy’s program special

    The Miniature American Shepherd is a relatively young breed, only being AKC recognized since 2015. I will do my part to always breed to the breed standard for the betterment and improvement of the breed. I am a big believer in paying it forward. A percentage of all our puppy purchases will go to the local humane society or other local charity.
