Aurora from Arizona Aussies was amazing to work with. I was looking for a new furbabby after I lost my dog of 10 years and after doing ample research I decided to get a Mini Aussie. I did some research and I was lucky enough to come by Auroras profile on GoodDog, as soon as I contacted her she was full of information and just so knowledgeable. I just want point out that I was impressed when I picked up my Ollie, they treat all their dogs with such care, they are family not a business. You can tell they really love their pups and that is so comforting to see. Ollie has been a happy, healthy dog, he is truly amazing. He was so easy to potty train because Arizona Aussies starts the work for you, like I said many times, THEY CARE. I would highly recommend Arizona Aussies they are kind and responsible. Thank you Aurora for giving me Ollie he is an amazing dog!

Once I had interest in my new pup Reese's, Aurora responded to me right away and helped me with every question I had! She also sent us home with lots of goodies to help us know what to buy for our knew pup! Arizona Aussies was so kind to me and is still helping me with all my questions today. I'm so blessed to have found them!
