We had the most wonderful experience with Kimberly! My mom got a puppy from her (Arlo) and within a few days of meeting him, my husband and I had put down a deposit on our own puppy. Kimberly is quick to respond and answers questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. We loved getting to meet the puppy’s parents and all of Kimberly’s animals when we went to pick Tabitha up. The puppies are well socialized, happy, and adorable! Tabitha was immediately wonderful with our kids and our birds. She’s potty trained already and slept in her crate the first night with no issues. She was sleeping through the night within 3 days and only woke up once the first few nights. She’s been the most wonderful puppy! We absolutely adore her 💕 She’s such a doll that some friends of ours wanted one of their own! They reached out to me about where we’d gotten Tabitha, contacted Kimberly and brought home her brother, Owen. We’d fallen in love with him when we went to pick up Tabitha so we were thrilled for them all! We’re looking forward to having play dates with all 3 puppies soon!!

+4Kim, along with her caring son and daughter at Desert Fox Aussies could not have been better. We have had Echo for one month now, and he is so precious. We just love him with all of our heart. He was well taken care of, and the process could not have gone any smoother. We (and Echo included) highly recommend Desert Fox Aussies!!!!!!!!!!

+8Desert Fox Aussies was very prompt on responding and the process went smoothly. They seemed to give their puppies a very enriching environment. We are very happy with our puppy Mercury. Great natural personality, and incredibly smart. Each time we train her a new trick she learns it within minutes. Thank you Desert Fox Aussies!

Kim was amazing to work with. She gave weekly updates and even let us come meet Lady a few weeks before picking her up. Lady has a wonderful temperament. She has been easy to train and even slept in her crate the first night we had her with no complications! Our vet said she looks amazing and is on track to live a healthy and happy life!

+4We absolutely love our puppy! Desert Fox puppies are very well loved & well socialized in an active, home environment. All puppy parents can be met onsite & Kimberly does a great job of explaining the puppies' various temperaments so as to best match puppies with homes.
