74 Ranch is PROUD to be a (MASCA) Hall of Fame Breeder.
We are proud to be responsible and honest Miniature American Breeders (previously Mini Aussie) of over 15 years and have many references. We have always striven to have the best of the best when it comes to our program, working to get the 'full package'... We evaluate our puppies for structure and temperament at 8 weeks old. We are a MASCA Hall of Fame Breeder/Kennel - we don't use the word 'kennel' because that's not what we are. We only have 3 females that live with us, the rest live in awesome pet and breeding co-own homes. We use the Puppy Culture method for raising our puppies as well as a few others that we have incorporated into our training/raising program! We do ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) and Scent Introduction from days 3-16. They are raised in the house until 5-6 weeks old then come in and out of the house. They are started on crate training at that time. They eat separate in the crate each meal. We take them on 3 car rides by 10 days old then continue to go on car rides until they leave. We start leash/collar training at 7 weeks. They go in and out of a doggy door. They are on many surfaces at this age: weeds, grass, rock (small and large), dirt, cement, wood deck, tile, carpet, etc. They go on walks through the apple orchard and follow us to the mailbox. Most litters are exposed to chickens,
ducks and cats as well as strangers and safe strange dogs (our ranch dogs).
They sit (mand/Puppy Culture) to get petted, picked up, eat meals, get treats, go in/outdoors or crates, etc.
We try our best to raise well balanced, resilient puppies! We are not afraid to take any of our adults out of our program and spay/neuter/place in pet homes if they are not improving the breed.
Located just 1 1/4 hr north of Cheyenne; 3 hrs north of Denver Colorado - Visitors welcome normally but due to COVID-19 there may be changes to that or requirements in order to visit!
We breed for the Full Package: Health, Brains, Temperament, Athleticism and Beauty!
Call Michele at 307-534-5475 for more information on our puppies/dogs!

GUARDIAN HOMES:
We will be looking for a few guardian homes in some 2022 litters coming up... What does that mean? 1) The female/male will be kept INTACT (not spayed or neutered) until 2 years old to see how it turns out. If it turns out nice we will use it for breeding. We are flexible though if it becomes a problem we will work with you 2) You will get the BEST of the BEST puppies - the full package - personality, temperament, structure, etc. 3) You will earn the original cost of your puppy back as we use it in our program. If it's a female we will have and raise the puppies or you can (flexible on contract with that) or we can have them part time and you for a while then back to us to finish before going to a new home. IF it's a male we will use it in our breeding program and give you a small stud fee. IF others use the male you will get a larger stud fee. 4) Where does the puppy live? It lives with YOU, you treat it as your pet, love it, pay for vet fees, feed it and such. We pay ANY fees related to breeding (progesterone tests, Artificial insemination/breeding, traveling, C-section if one is needed, Tails/Dewclaws removed, etc. It is YOUR puppy, your dog. We co-own on paper until the decision is made at 2 years old or until the dog/female is spayed/neutered or the contract is fulfilled. If we show the dog we will pay all expenses and stay local so you don't have to do without your dog for very long.
Why do we do this? We will always stay small here at the ranch but in order to better our program and the Miniature American breed we need dogs to use. That is where you come in - you help us while we help you. We can provide references if desired!

Why we love PUPPY CULTURE (click link below) here at 74 Ranch! Puppy Culture helps our puppies grow into better behaved and balanced puppies. Things we do with our puppies before they leave: put them on a grooming table many times, brush them, look at their teeth, trim their nails, etc. They are handled every day and taught to sit to get treats, sit to get petted and sit before they go in and out of crates/pens. They are exposed to at least 7 different things under foot by 7 weeks old (rocks, dirt, grass, cement, wood, carpet, linoleum, tile, weeds, etc) They are also exposed to wobble boards, stairs, singing/dancing toys, tunnels, puppy dog walk, many different sounds and more. We work with each puppy individually every day and they go for car rides every few days, visiting neighbors and meeting their dogs and cats. They are also crate trained and started on leash training! They get at least 3 baths before leaving home and are dried with a dryer as well as trimmed and groomed.
We highly recommend you follow along with what we are doing through Puppy Culture (click below) and continue on past the time you take a puppy home! It is very educational and advantageous for the puppy's futures!
We also highly recommend this book: Perfect Puppy in 7 Days! We have read it several times over and ours is looking pretty worn!!! There are also other good puppy raising books at DogWise!
