Welcome to Dynasty Miniature American Shepherds
Breeders of Champion Bloodline Mini American Shepherds
Available Puppies
We have several litters planned for 2023 and several deposits. The timing of the litters all depends on Mother Nature as to when the girls go into heat. We will post on our Facebook page upon confirmation of pregnancy. We will be looking for some companion homes to keep some of our dogs that we wish to show or breed in the future. Feel free to call and discuss with us. We have done several exports to many countries and work with a very dependable puppy nanny to get your puppy shipped out of the country.
Karma and Emmett welcomed seven healthy puppies on 12/8/22. We have three red girls (one tri and two merles) and four boys (a black tri, red tri, and two blue boys). This litter has several deposits.
Mysti and Remi welcomed eight puppies on 1/2/23. We have two blue merle boys and six black tris: 4 girls and 2 boys. This litter has several deposits.
Cardi and Emmett have been bred and she is due mid-January. This litter will be in Georgia and will be her final litter.
Sienna and Cooper will be bred in summer of 2023 in Michigan for an all-red litter.

The Only MAS Breeder with Three BIS Winners
Dax has become our third homebred Best in Show Winner. Dynasty is the only MAS breeder to have bred three BIS winners. In addition, they are all tricolor, which makes this more impressive! These three are all related to each other.
Our Team
Dynasty Minis' success comes from teamwork. Fran and Kim both plan for and whelp the litters. Fran is the one who spends the first few months with the show prospects before they move South to start their career. Fran also presents several of the dogs in the ring and has several owner handler group placements. Kim raises and trains puppies and presents them in puppy shows and also has done some owner handler showing with our dogs. Our handler, Arvind DeBraganca, and his wife Joyce spend hours training, grooming and presenting our dogs. They are an integral part of our team.

Breeding for Health, Structure, Temperament and Versatility
At Dynasty Miniature American Shepherds, we pride ourselves on quality. We are very selective in our breeding program and with that we produce a small number of litters each year. Our owners become part of our extended family and we enjoy keeping up-to-date on pups' progress. We invite you to take a look at our dogs and welcome any questions regarding our breeding program. The Miniature American Shepherd moved to the Herding Group in July 2015.
All breeding stock have their OFA (Orthopedic Foundation of America) ratings (hip), eyes cleared and scissors bite. With all of the newly available DNA testing, many are also tested for extensive DNA results. All testing results are posted on each dog's page and links to OFA and CAER records are viewable.
