GET TO KNOW THE PESON BEHIND LUMINAUSSIES
Who Iam
I'm a Psychologist with over 11 years of experience working in the mental health field.Â
As a professional in the area of mental health, the most important principles for me are emotional and mental stability, balance, assertive decisions, caring and respecting ourselves and others.
At this time I and two of my adult dogs are working with adults, adolescents, and children who experienced trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use/ abuse disorder, and other mental health illnesses, as a mental health professional, I witnessed the positive improvement on peoples lives.
HOW DID WE GET INTO BREEDING?
This is a dream
​
In my research to find that emotional stability, I read about animal therapy, and I thought that it should be done in a responsible way, conserving the breed, providing the necessary care before pregnancy, during and after, so that these future puppies can be born healthy and with high emotional and cognitive intelligence, emotional and cognitive in order to provide support for their families.
PHILOSOPHY & MISSION
An Ethical Pet Breeder
At LuminAussies , we have been building our reputation as a trusted Australian Shepherd Breeder, we are located in Phoenix Arizona. We take our responsibilities very seriously and strive to ensure the health, safety, and well-being of all our Aussies. We really believe in true love commitments, in our good breeder's program, emotional stability provided on animal therapy has been fundamental as Lulu and Dexter are highly involved in providing love, care, and support for the most vulnerable population. Would be amazing that families and or individuals experienced the opportunity to have a Toy Australian Shepherd like Lulu and Dexter. That’s when we thought that it should be done in a responsible way, conserving the breed, providing the necessary care before pregnancy, during, and after, so that these future puppies can be born healthy and with high emotional and cognitive intelligence, in order to provide support for their forever families.
