Iq Farms Australian Shepherds

Iq Farms Australian Shepherds raises Australian shepherds and miniature American shepherds in Prairie Grove, AR, in the Ozark Mountains near Fayetteville. Katie Book has built a program registered with national breed clubs and backed by years of hands-on experience.

Parents undergo hip and elbow evaluations as well as annual eye examinations to support long-term health. Each litter is raised in a home environment where early socialization and gentle handling help puppies build confidence. Dogs have regular access to grassy paddocks and indoor living quarters designed for comfort and safety.

Families often comment on the even temperaments and adaptability of puppies as they settle into new homes. The breeder’s balanced approach blends working heritage with household companionship, reflecting a genuine love for the breed’s versatility. After placement, Katie Book continues to offer guidance on training, nutrition, and social enrichment as puppies grow.
