Meet the breeder
I'm the breeder behind Stellar Miniature American Shepherds located in Robinson, TX. Our dogs live in our home and are our pets first and foremost. We do not focus our program on any particular color, rather, we focus on incredible quality that will produce stunning show dogs and healthy babies.
Lauren’s experience
About Lauren
We started this program with the intent of bettering the breed and providing pet owners with a healthy well-tempered pet. We show our dogs in AKC conformation shows to represent what quality we produce. We provide our puppy owners with constant care and attention when they need any questions answered. Our goal is to make sure the buyer is happy no matter what.
What makes Lauren’s program special
Here at Stellar, we are family, that means when you buy a pup from us, you are part of our extended family. I will do what it takes to help the buyer learn about their puppy, even help train their puppy to the best of its ability. We test every one of our breeding dogs on genetics, hips, eyes, heart, patellas, and everything that you would expect a responsible breeder should ensuring a great pet.
