Naughty is a special little red merle girl who was born at Crimson Miniature American Shepherds. Our outstanding girl Shine is her mother and Sparkle is her aunt. Naughty’s father is Platinum Grand Champion Blue Elk Beginning of an Icon (Legend) who was one of the top dogs in our breed. Naughty was co-bred with Sheila Hoskins at Woodridge Aussies and is owned by Teresa at Crimson MAS. This special girl isn’t a naughty puppy, though; she is very sweet and loves to cuddle. Naughty’s biggest vice is that she loves to steal socks and also to hide her toys and chewies so she can guard them from the other dogs! Naughty is 15.5“ tall and weighs about 24 lbs.
