Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind LJK Boxers & Toy Aussies located in Mountain Home, ID. We focus on health testing to prolong the life of an amazing breed. We want families looking for a puppy to have the option of a stable temperament that can fit into everyday life. Our dogs are smart, loving, protective, and of course beautiful.

Sylvanna’s experience

  • About Sylvanna

    Dogs have always been important to me. I started showing my family dog in 4-H when I was in fourth grade. I still work with dogs on a daily basis as a manager to a boarding facility. I couldn't dream of a better job that allows me to keep my dogs with me at all times.

  • What makes Sylvanna’s program special

    We health test all of our dogs and choose only the best temperaments that thrive in family environments to pass on genetics. We provide all of this and more for a fraction of what similar breeders charge.

Sylvanna has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices.

More about Sylvanna

  • Why Sylvanna started breeding

    I was looking up the issues Boxers have and found that mostly only expensive show breeders did any testing. I wanted to provide healthy Boxers at a reasonable price to people who want a member of their family, not a show dog. The aussies came as we were looking for a small dog that would enjoy outdoor activities as well as fitting in with the family. They are an active, loving, and smart breed.
