Miniature American Shepherd’s
Tate - Small World’s My Man Tate
Gatlin - Clay Creeks All The Gold @ NightTrain
Tate is a stunning 16.75” red merle male, dual registered with AKC and ASDR. He is a strong representation of the breed, combining structure, presence, and breed-typical temperament.
Tate has completed all OFA health testing and holds a CHIC number. His results include:
- OFA Hips: Excellent
- OFA Elbows: Normal
- Eyes: Normal
- Full genetic panel: Clear
In the show ring, Tate has proven himself at a high level. As of May 2024, he earned his ASDR Elite Grand Champion title and closed out 2025 with his Supreme Grand Champion Copper title. Our goal is to see him achieve his Supreme Grand Champion Platinum title in 2026.
Temperament-wise, Tate is a true example of the breed. He has that classic Aussie aloofness—loyal to his people, observant, and just a little opinionated. We often joke that he’s “judging your outfit” with his signature resting dog face 😉—but behind that is a smart, steady, and incredibly loyal dog.
Tate is available for stud service to approved females. Please reach out for more information regarding pairing and requirements.
Gatlin - Clay Creeks All The Gold @ NightTrain
Gatlin - Clay Creeks All The Gold @ NightTrain
Gatlin is a handsome 16.13” black tri male with striking blue eyes, dual registered with AKC and ASDR. He maintains a healthy weight between 33–35 pounds and brings both structure and personality to our program.
Gatlin has completed his health testing and is full panel clear. His OFA results include:
- OFA Hips: Excellent
- OFA Elbows: Normal
- Eyes: Normal
His CHIC number is currently pending as we finalize submission.
In the show ring, Gatlin finished the 2025 season earning his ASDR Elite Champion Bronze title. Our goal for 2026 is to continue his success and complete his Elite Grand Champion title.
Temperament-wise, Gatlin is incredibly friendly, outgoing, and loves meeting new people. He is the complete opposite of Tate in personality, offering a more social and engaging demeanor while still maintaining the intelligence and loyalty the breed is known for.
Gatlin is available for stud service to approved females. He may also be available for purchase to the right home or program. Please reach out to discuss if Gatlin is the right fit for you.

We have recently started his show career, and he absolutely loves it. Waylon thrives on attention and carries himself with confidence—he knows he’s adorable and fully enjoys being the star of the show 💙
Temperament-wise, Waylon is happy, outgoing, and full of personality. He brings a fun, expressive presence along with the charm you’d expect from a well-bred hound.

Golden Retriever’s
Jackson - Taylor’s Jackson
Jackson is a handsome deep gold male and an up-and-coming stud prospect in our program.
Jackson is scheduled to complete his OFA health testing in November once he turns two years of age. His planned evaluations include:
- Hips
- Elbows
- Eyes
- Cardiac
While Jackson was originally intended to be a bird dog, he quickly made it clear that his priorities lie elsewhere. He much prefers belly rubs, a comfy couch, the occasional dip in the pond, and—if given the chance—a good roll in cow patties.
Temperament-wise, Jackson is easygoing, affectionate, and laid back, making him a great representation of the companion side of the breed.
