Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Rhinestone Ranch located in New Boston, TX. Breeding health tested dogs with a good temperament and correct conformation is extremely important. These dogs have so much to offer, but only if the breeding is done correctly. I am always striving to learn new things to better my program. There is always more to learn and more to improve.

Carissa’s experience

  • About Carissa

    I am a small hobby breeder of toy and mini Aussies. I take pride in my program by health testing and judging the quality of temperament that each breeding dog has. I place my dogs in conformation shows to help prove that my dogs are a great example of the breed. My dogs are not kennel dogs, they are family dogs.

  • What makes Carissa’s program special

    I do my best to better the breed in any way that I can. I love all of my dogs the same. They are part of our family.
