Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Midnight Sun Aussies located in Wasilla, AK. I love being a breeder. It's so fulfilling to have the opportunity to create companionship and love and to see the positive effect that a beloved, furry companion can have on its family. I breed with a focus on temperament and health, and my goal is to produce playful, loving, and loyal dogs. My puppies make wonderful companions!
