Sunset Hill Mini & Toy Aussies
Meet the Ladies
All of our dogs live right in our home—yes, every single one! They’re fully registered, genetically tested, super healthy, and full of love and personality. Between our huge fenced yard, family training time, and weekly dog club sessions, they’re social, playful, and wonderfully prepared for any adventure.
Take The Time
To train yourself in the little things, for this is the foundation of great things!

Piper is our joyful little social butterfly! She adores everyone she meets and passes that happy, heart-melting personality on to her puppies. She came to us from another breeder’s family home, and she hasn’t strutted her stuff in the show ring too many times yet, but trust us—she already has all the confidence and a fan club ready to cheer her on. Fancy titles? Just a few. A million friends? Absolutely.
She’s a large toy from the respected Fullerton line (same as our girl Star, known for producing Therapy and Service prospects). Piper is beautifully built and gives us both large toy and mini puppies with her signature sweet temperament.

Nan is hands-down everyone’s best friend! She’s never met a stranger, charms every crowd, and is a total natural in the show ring—she wins without even trying.
Her temperament is perfect for personal therapy dogs, and as of Winter ’24, her pups are now being used for Service Dogs too! Paired with Tiny, she produces the sweetest, snuggliest puppies, usually in the toy to small mini range.
Nan loves our window seat and runs like a rocket across the farm. She’s built for agility—pure muscle and so much joy! We’ve started agility and jump training, and she’s a natural… when she’s not giving us her adorable “treat please” face.

PHD/CGC Level 3- Elite Master
Scent ORC- Birch
Agility level 1
Maggie is our sweet, snuggly, crazy-obedient girl! Her genetics are so consistent that we get a whole pack of “mini-Maggies” with every litter. She’s earned her Canine Good Citizen (CGC/PHD) and has even competed in Level 1 scent work—smart girl!
She has a calm, laid-back “southern belle” vibe and likes to take life at her own pace. When paired with Ziggy, her puppies are incredibly smart, easy to train, and solidly built in the small-to-mid mini range (with the occasional large toy surprise!).
Maggie is proudly trained and handled by our daughter, Sarah.

Canine Good Citizen Level 1
Pepper is all temperament and all confidence — this girl walks into a room and owns it!
She was absolutely born to lead. At 16" tall, this blue merle mini is as smart as she is stunning. She learns new things in a snap and is the perfect “show-off” dog for party tricks and impressing friends!
Pepper produces incredibly bright, eager-to-learn puppies—truly some of the most brilliant we’ve seen. With generations of Canine Good Citizens, therapy dogs, and frisbee champs behind her, she carries a legacy of talent and heart.

"Ruby"
Sotheby's Sunrise Ruby
Titles:
Confirmation- Elite Champion
Ruby is our bubbly little redhead, and yes… I’m a total sucker for her! Her big white collar looks like a glamorous vintage fur shawl—basically screaming, “buy me sparkly things and take me fabulous places!” She’s the life of the party, silly, fun, and often the class clown around here.
She’s a toy-sized red tri with stunning blue eyes and a solid little build, much like Star. Ruby is smart as a whip and not a huge fan of holding still—can’t blame her, she gets that from me! She happily tags along for any adventure, but especially loves sneaking raspberries out of our garden. (Again… same, girl. Same.)
Ruby comes from generations of Canine Good Citizens, therapy dogs, frisbee champs, and more. We can’t wait to watch her shine!

Foxie Moxie is our keeper girl from Tiny, and honestly, how could we resist her? She was stunning from day one. Tiny had several “romantic getaways” with Nix (Oakley’s mom), and every litter was gorgeous — so this time we finally kept one! That means Moxie and Oakley share the same momma, which explains why we’re so obsessed with those genetics.
Moxie is incredibly sweet and hands down the fastest dog we’ve ever owned. Her long, lean body moves like a gazelle, and her long-distance recall is unbeatable. She never uses her speed to misbehave — she’s too loyal and obedient for that!
We plan to train her in frisbee, jumpers (think hurdles for dogs!), and Fast CAT competitions. This girl was built for speed and fun.
