Meet the breeder

I'm Kelli A., the breeder behind Creekside Aussies located in Ellensburg, WA. Our dogs are health tested and structurally correct. We strive for excellent temperaments and well balanced puppies. Our dogs are not just dogs, but part of the family. They come inside the house and they go outside to play in a big yard with toys and a swimming pool in the summer months. They also have access to an inside/outside area that is climate controlled. They can be inside with heating or air or outside in the fresh air.

Q. & A. with Kelli

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Years ago our good friend and mentor was into breeding dashounds and we observed all the practices she did. We decided to become breeders after much research on the breed, what it takes to become a reputable breeder, and proper set up. We have a room in the house where our females can whelp and be safe and comfortable for the first month of the puppies lives. Then we move them out to a climate controlled kennel with individual runs where they can be inside or outside to play with their toys, interact with each other, and sleep inside on their comfy beds.
  • What makes your program special?

    We pride ourselves on well structured dogs with phenomenal temperaments. We do not over breed and give the females time off to be a dog and not just a mom.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black & white, red merle, blue merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Kelli

Kelli has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Together, you’ll choose the puppy that’s right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.

Price

Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $700 - $3,000 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“The price includes tail dock, dew claws removed, dewormed, first shots, plus health certificate and microchip if desired for an additional fee. We can meet buyers half way within Washington State. We offer a paid wait list where someone can place a non refundable $100 for a specific color and sex of a puppy on future litters only. This puts them at the top of the list in order received for their choice of puppy from any of the litters that year. Once the puppies are picked, they will pay their remaining $400 deposit. The remaining puppies will be listed where someone can choose and place their $500 deposit down.”

Contract & health guarantee

This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase.

    I don’t pick up my pup until March 14 which she was gracious to hold onto him for me until then. Kelli has been in contact with me almost every day with photos, videos and updates. She has gone above and beyond my expectations caring for my pup until I retrieve him. I would definitely recommend her. Her rates are reasonable, and her litters are well cared for and healthy! I highly recommend and if I ever adopt again I will be going through Kelli from Creekside Aussies! Thanks Kelli! To see more follow her on Facebook at Creekside Aussies

    Our experience with Kelli was AMAZING. Our puppy Oakley is one of the best things that have ever happened to us. He was clean, healthy and well socialized when we picked him up. We have had him now for 4 months and he has learned so much and is such a smart puppy. Kelli was great about keeping us updated with photos and videos of our baby prior to being able to pick him up. We are already planning on getting a second puppy with Kelli towards the end of the year.

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
