Q. & A. with Lil
Why did you start breeding?
I have loved animals my whole life 💖 When Shilo joined our family I totally fell in love with this breed. They are amazing and I felt I couldn’t keep this breed to myself. Since Shilo I’ve expanded my training for these little souls to be true family members 💗What makes your program special?
All puppies are raised in our home which means they are used to living inside with the hustle and bustle. Puppy Culture is at the core of my program! All puppies will have health certificate, vaccinations as per Vet instructions. ENS and desensitizing to sounds, house training is 85-95% . Temperament and healthily are top priority! 30 days of free insurance.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Lynn M.
Verified owner · July 2024
We have had high energy dogs for almost 30 years now, so we knew what we were getting into when we began searching for a new Australian Shepherd pup. When Lil said our new pup would be a product of puppy culture, perfectly socialized and 85-90% potty trained by 8 weeks, we were more than a little skeptical. She certainly delivered!!! He rides in the car like a champ, slept through the night from day one, and she wasn’t lying about the house breaking, he goes every time we put him out! Never have we had a puppy this easy and such a little love bug! Thank you Lil for being the best quality breeder we have ever known-you really love your pups and it shows💕
