    It was great working with Emily at Benoit Australian Shepherds. She was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Our puppy, Kuzco, is in excellent health, has a great personality and is scary smart. We would definitely recommend Emily to anyone looking to add a dog to their family.

    Emily was great! She met me at the airport with our puppy and was super communicative which made everything easy! Our puppy has been amazing. He’s now a year and a half old and everyone comments about his beautiful coloring and his amazing behavior.

    We had a great experience with Emily and Benoit Australian Shepherds. She was responsive and knowledgeable. Our puppy was confident and well cared for.

    I had a very positive experience with Emily. She was incredibly responsive and always willing to answer any questions I had. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her pups and puts a lot of thought into their well-being. All of the puppies were healthy and happy, and we could tell they were raised in a loving environment. Emily gave us the opportunity to meet the puppies in advance and even provided a toy with their scent to help introduce them to our kitties, which really helped with the transition. Our pup, Islay, was already introduced to various noises and experiences before we picked her up, and she has the best temperament. I would highly consider purchasing another Australian Shepherd from Emily in the future and absolutely recommend her to others.
