Michaela was the BEST! Very responsive, helpful, friendly, and made the overall expericence very pleasant. It’s evident that she cares so much for every single pup. We got our boy with his favorite toys, blanket, and food. Michaela provided us with multiple updates and pictures while we waited to pick up our puppy. Overall, our experience with Diamond Aussies N the Rough was phenomenal and we will definitely be recommending them if we know someone looking for an Aussie! Thank you so much Michaela and family :)

Michaela was amazing to work with. We live relatively close and she made picking up the puppy so easy! She also shared multiple pictures and info about him before pickup and sent him home with his food. He’s a beautiful dog!
