About Us

WHO WE ARE

We are Greg and Marit, and we have five children living on 2.5 acres in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

We are the proud owners of Oregon Mist Aussies, an Australian Shepherd stud program. We are dedicated to refining the breed by providing premier stud services, backed by comprehensive health testing and champion bloodlines.

Our dogs are selected for outstanding temperament and structural soundness so we can help fellow breeders advance their programs and produce better, healthier Aussies.

At Oregon Mist Aussies, our mission is to responsibly advance the Australian Shepherd breed through thoughtful selection, proven bloodlines, and a commitment to health, temperament, and structural integrity. Rooted in our family values and country lifestyle, we strive to produce dogs that are not only exceptional in form and function but also loyal companions and reliable working partners. By collaborating with like-minded breeders, we aim to promote the long-term health, versatility, and excellence of the Australian Shepherd for generations to come.

Our Story

In 2021, we moved from a neighborhood home to a 2.5-acre country property, providing plenty of space for our five young children, all aged 9 and under, to play and enjoy the country living.

We quickly recognized the benefits of adding a dog to our family, both as a playmate for the children and as a protector for our property. After extensive research, we fell in love with the Australian Shepherd for its versatility as a working, family, and guardian dog. The breed's intelligence, friendliness, loyalty, and beauty truly stood out to us.

Now, after several years of owning an Aussie, we couldn’t be happier with this amazing breed. We look forward to collaborating with like-minded breeders who share our goal of promoting the benefits of Australian Shepherds to others.
