Kimberly Mead

Kimberly Mead raises AKC and ASCA registered Australian shepherd puppies at The Mead Ranch in Pauma Valley, California, a rural community in San Diego County about an hour north of the city of San Diego.

The ranch is a working property where the dogs share space with draft horses, including Shire, Andalusian, and Spanish Norman breeds, as well as peacocks and other animals. The Australian shepherds here are raised in that active, open-air environment rather than a kennel setting. Litters produce all four standard coat colors, including blue merle, red merle, black tri, and red tri, as the breeding dogs are red factored.

Health and readiness are central to how puppies leave the ranch. Each pup is held until at least eight weeks of age, fully dewormed, and current on first vaccinations before pickup is scheduled. Kimberly takes a careful approach to biosecurity, limiting visitor contact with unvaccinated puppies to reduce disease risk. Those looking for Australian shepherd puppies in California will find that the program is dual-registered through both AKC and ASCA.
