Welcome to Sileverleaf Kennels

A little About Us ~ Silverleaf Australian Shepherds & Miniature American Shepherds is a small hobby show/breeding kennel located in Oklahoma, owned and operated by myself, McKayla Smith. We strive to produce versatile Aussies that are both conformationally correct and capable of performing their job. It is our goal to have a dog that can easily thrive as both a performance dog and family companion. 

Australian Shepherds have a way of stealing your heart. While each dog has its own personality, Aussies are known for their loyalty, intelligence, and work ethic. I fell in love with Australian Shepherds from the moment I was a baby like 1997 lol. I showed and helped raise litters for my mother at Waterfall Aussies and helped show dogs for other people along the way. Then when I was 19 I bought Royal, Rolling D’s Look Whose Royal TKN DNA-VP home in 2015. I bred Royal in 2017 and we got King, Silverleaf's King Royal. Having just wasn't enough which led us to where we are now. While there is a lot of history between then and now, Royal  became a matriarch and Silverleaf Australian Shepherds was founded in 2015. Here, our dogs are both our family and team members -  we participate in a variety of dog sports, such as Fast-Cat, Rally Obedience, Trick Dog, Agility and Conformation.  We got into  Miniature American Shepherds back in 2021. They are just as smart as our aussies. We love them. They have different temperaments but they are an Aussie in a smaller body.
