I'm the breeder behind Mingus Mountain Pomskys located in Arizona. My program was built with love, care, and intention from the ground up. The quality of my puppies reflects the conscious decisions I make throughout every part of the breeding process. I am confident that my puppies will enrich your life just as much as my dogs have touched mine!
About Joyce
I am a Mom of 3, wife to the best and furmama to many. Love them all! I am an RN who specialized in Labor and Deliver/NICU for 10+ years, now full time dog Mama. We love the outdoors, spending time with family(of course that means the pups) walks are a must, daily play time(weather permitting) is the light of my day. Just an ordinary lady who loves her family and puppers!
What makes Joyce’s program special
I am an experienced breeder, and I take my role seriously. I keep a variety of factors in mind when choosing dogs to breed so that puppies can inherit the best of both parents. Our pups are well socialized with adults(male/female), kids and other animals. We believe in puppy culture and do with every puppy to enrich their beginning. We believe in preparing pups to go home to decrease the shock.

Puppy prices range from $2,800 - $4,500 and include a non-refundable deposit of $500.
“Puppies are priced based on several items. Puppies priced below $3000 will not have traditional husky markings. We strive to breed for quality and good temperaments as well as our puppies looking as close to a mini husky as possible! We start puppy picks about 5 weeks of age with a deposit. At this time we are able to see their coat type, eye color, estimate size and see their temperaments developing. We request a $500 non-refundable deposit which is applied to the pup you choose. Deposit is due before being added to the waitlist or choosing your puppy after pick have been made. Initial contracts will be updated with specific Puppy prior to full payment requested, full payment due by the age of 7 weeks. Deposit will be held for up to 1 year or 3 litters while awaiting your best friend. After this time your deposit will be forfeited unless discussed prior to expiration.”

Why Joyce started breeding
We fell in love with our first girl Rajah who came to us 4 years ago. She is the light of our life. Me as a labor and deliver nurse just fell in love with the whole process and wanted to continue to better this amazing breed! We love their personalities from the agility to the brains they have it all, plus Loves your lap to boot! Best dogs you could have for all ages.
