Bettering The Breed
Family-raised Australian Shepherds in North Carolina.
At Charming Australian Shepherds, our mission is to preserve and thoughtfully improve the Australian Shepherd through purposeful, selective breeding. We are dedicated to producing sound-minded, structurally correct, and genetically healthy dogs that embody the qualities that have made this breed so exceptional for generations. Every breeding is carefully planned, with comprehensive health and genetic testing performed to help ensure the long-term well-being of our puppies. Whether you're looking for a capable working partner or a loyal family companion, we are committed to matching each puppy with the right home.
Our focus has never been on breeding for the show ring. We are passionate about preserving the versatile, intelligent, and dependable Australian Shepherd—the kind that excels through sound temperament, athleticism, and purpose, while remaining a devoted member of the family.
When you welcome a puppy from Charming Australian Shepherds, you're not just adding a dog to your home—you're becoming part of our extended family. We are here to support you before, during, and long after your puppy goes home.

"What a wonderful place filled with love and beautiful puppies !! We purchased two puppies at the same time and had a fantastic experience. Toree was so helpful and informative. Our two pups are doing great. They are healthy, smart, loving, and just fantastic animals. I would highly recommend this place if you are interested in an Australian Shepherd to love. She completely helped us through the entire process, gave us so many pointers and was there to help us with any future questions we had. She clearly understands these dogs and has a true gift. She is an extremely hard worker and completely dedicated to every one of her puppies and dogs . Our lives will never be the same again. We have been blessed thanks to Charming Australian Shepherds and Toree ❤️"

"I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Toree. From my very first experience with her—and again the second time—it was immediately clear just how much care, intention, and professionalism she brings to everything she does. I now have two Australian Shepherds from her, and they are truly my world. Both dogs are exceptionally smart, deeply loyal, and such a joy to live life with. Their temperaments, behavior, and overall health are a true testament to the care and integrity Toree puts into her breeding program. They have incredible genetics, have been easy to train, and have had zero health complications, which speaks volumes about how thoughtfully and responsibly she does things. One thing that truly sets Toree apart is the way she cares for her dogs long after they leave her program. My second Australian Shepherd came to me through a rehoming situation from an irresponsible owner, and instead of turning a blind eye, Toree stepped in without hesitation. She cares so deeply about her dogs’ well-being that she personally takes the time to house any “homeless” dogs, ensuring they are safe, loved, and cared for until she can find the perfect home where they’ll be cherished for the rest of their lives. That level of dedication is rare and incredibly telling of her character. Beyond just the dogs themselves, Toree is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is organized, transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in every puppy and family she works with. Even after bringing my dogs home, I’ve continued to follow along with her business and admire the way she consistently shows up for her dogs, her clients, and her program as a whole. It’s clear this isn’t “just a business” for her—it’s a passion and a responsibility she takes seriously, and it shows in every detail. I would recommend Toree without hesitation to anyone looking for an Australian Shepherd bred with intention, love, and the highest standards of care. I feel incredibly lucky to have two of her dogs in my life and wouldn’t change that decision for anything."

"Our charming Aussie has brought so much light and joy to our lives. We are eternally grateful for the incredible time and care that Toree puts into her dogs and all of the animals under her care. The farm is beautiful and we enjoyed visiting every week until it was time to bring Pancho home. He has been incredibly heathy, smart, and happy these 5 years and I look forward to many more. I hope he isn’t the only charming aussie I’m fortunate enough to own and love."
