I'm Ashley F., the breeder behind Best Little Aussies located in Granbury, TX. I carefully choose the sire and dam in order to produce the best quality possible. We strive to raise dogs of sound mind and healthy bodies. We do more testing than almost anyone out there including OFA's, Genetic testing, and prove our dogs in the show ring and in performance.

Ashley has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
After buyers complete the application and screening process, Ashley partners with them to find the best puppy match.
“We want our families to choose the correct pup. We encourage you to tell us about your lifestyle, hobbies and interests to help us recommend the best fit.”

“Placing a deposit on a puppy holds that puppy in your name until it is 8 weeks old. Deposits are nonrefundable in most cases. Deposits are Non-Refundable in most cases. When we mark a puppy as yours with a deposit no one else is allowed to see that pup and it is held for you. If you cannot finish paying for a puppy by the time it is 8 weeks old and ready to go home your deposit will be forefited. Should something happen to the puppy while still in our care your deposit will be refunded or can be transferred to another puppy.”
Ashley may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Ashley offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Ashley directly.
When you pay and communicate on Good Dog, you’re covered by Payment Protection.

The Encore puppies are growing up fast and discovering more about the world every day! Their personalities are beginning to shine as they explore new sights, sounds, and adventures around the ranch. These little ones are gaining new skills daily, becoming more confident, curious, and interactive with each passing day. They’ve also discovered that belly rubs are pretty wonderful and are already handing out the sweetest puppy kisses. ❤️ We love watching this stage of development as they become more playful, social, and eager to engage with people. It’s easy to see why we’re so excited about this repeat cross!

Ashley was amazing! We were looking at a couple of different mini Aussie puppies through Good Dog & quickly realized that there are good breeders…and then there are excellent breeders. Ashley was very prompt in her communication - questions, concerns, updates and she included lots of photos of our little pup while we were coordinating delivery. (Plus, her dogs made the cutest, sweetest, little cuddle muffin and we are just in love!) Highly recommend working with Best Little Aussies!
