Southern Soul Aussies

About Us

We are a small breeder located just outside Charlotte, NC. We focus on quality AKC and ASCA Australian Shepherds. Here at Southern Soul, we strive to produce dogs that are structurally correct meeting the breed standard, with sound minds and great temperaments. We breed/raise Aussies that are versatile and excel in just about anything. (Performance sports, service/therapy dogs, conformation, and loyal companions).
Our dogs are all house dogs with access to a huge fenced yard and spend their everyday lives with us. We do not have a kennel and do not believe kennels are a proper lifestyle for Australian Shepherds. Aussies are known as "velcro dogs" who want to be with their human(s) at all times. We have just a small number of dogs in our pack to ensure they are getting the attention and enrichment they each deserve. Our lives really do revolve around our dogs as every day we take them somewhere that is going to be good exercise, enrichment, and/or socialization. We enjoy taking them on off leash hikes, agility lessons, dock diving, swimming at the lake, rally/obedience classes, or just running errands. At Southern Soul, dogs are family. Our dogs travel and vacation with us because I can't imagine the thought of leaving them behind, PLUS an Aussie just makes everything more fun!
It is our goal to produce dogs that do not have issues that will effect them or their owners. Our breeding stock comes from champion lines with generations of health testing. Here at Southern Soul we preserve and protect the Australian Shepherd breed we are so passionate about.
