Welcome to Shamayim Shepherds!
We breed quality, health tested AKC mini American Shepherds in the PNW. Shamayim means “heavens” in Hebrew, and we chose this name as these dogs truly bring us so much joy, they are a little piece of heaven on earth!
Meet the Breeder
Hi! I’m Kiana, owner of Shamayim Shepherds. I am a lifelong animal lover, and have always been passionate about nurturing & raising animals since I was a young girl. I absolutely fell in love with the Mini American Shepherd breed, and now my goal is to dedicate myself to bettering the breed and raising the best dogs! They are truly a joy and blessing to spend our lives with!
About Our Program
My breeding program is small and special- I spend all of my time with my dogs and they are all well adjusted to a family atmosphere. The puppies are born and raised in my bedroom, so I am always close by to keep a caring watch over them. They are all socialized with children from day one, and we have an array of other animals on our farm, which makes them the perfect family and farm dogs!
About the Breed
The AKC Miniature American Shepherd is a vibrant and intelligent breed that perfectly combines herding instincts with a compact size, making them ideal companions for active families and individuals. Known for their versatility and trainability, these dogs thrive on mental and physical stimulation, making them excellent partners in various activities, from agility training to obedience competitions. With their striking resemblance to the Australian Shepherd, Mini American Shepherds are not only visually appealing but also possess a friendly and affectionate temperament, ensuring they fit seamlessly into any home. Discover the joys of owning an AKC Miniature American Shepherd and experience the loyalty and energy they bring to your life.
