    Hello Folks, A quick update on our adventure with our new to us four year old mini Aussie "Calli" we adopted from Denny. She went out of her way assisting us with the purchase and delivery of this fine little dog. From her family personally transporting her to our home, and by also sending her grandson to our home a few days later to help us search for her after she pulled out of her collar and spent five nights lost. In the short time we have had her she is all we could have asked for in a Mini Aussie. She is everything Denny told us she would be. She's getting along well with our other dogs and adapting well to her new life. If you are searching for your next forever pup you can't go wrong with Denny. She went above and beyond in helping us find ours. Sincerely, Dave & Nancy Clark

    Denny was so quick to respond to any questions we had during this process and was always willing to send us pictures of our girl and keep us up to date on everything. I can’t recommend her enough!

    Working with Denny from D & D was an absolute pleasure!! To say she goes above and beyond would be an understatement. If you're reading this and considering a Mini Aussie, hesitate no more! A Mini Aussie is one of the best dogs you will ever own and getting one from Denny is just the icing on the cake! Healthy, happy, and a pure bundle of precious is exactly what we got in our little Sofia! We are a very satisfied customer and so thankful we found Denny and D & D!!!

    Denny was amazing in every step of the way! From first contact, to the check ups of our first ride home, and the days after. We found Denny to be easy to work with, answered alllll our questions and concerns and lead us to our now beloved Gus (Potato)! Our Gus was a Christmas present for our two girls and they instantly fell in love with him as easily as we did when we first saw him! If anyone is looking for a great breeder of this style, Denny and D&D are the way to go! Thank you Denny for the wonderful help and the plethora of knowledge you gave us in our journey to finding our little man Gus!

    Although my husband and I have had 2 Aussies in the past, we have never purchased one from a breeder. Our experience has been beyond amazing. Denny was responsive, transparent, and very customer service oriented. I can’t say enough good things about her. We have renamed our puppy to Sophie and she has been more than I could have imagined. She is extremely smart, beautiful Red Merle markings, social, and healthy. Denny’s care package home was a nice surprise. Sophie has tackled it all. The papers are all intact for us to register her. We are so happy to have made this decision. You won’t be disappointed.
