    Working with Julie was an excellent experience. She is extremely honest. If she was unable to answer a question, she contacted her mentor who would help. Watching her with the full liter of pups you could see her loving care for each of them. I highly recommend anyone interested in a beautiful Australian Shepherd pup to contact her.

    Julie was so helpful in answering all our questions and helping us get our new puppy home and settled in. Our puppy is gorgeous, healthy, smart, loveable, and energetic, just like an Aussie pup should be! She is the perfect addition to our family. We love that Julie starts her puppies on litter box training, as it is making housetraining easier.

    From the very beginning, my experience with Julie has been nothing short of amazing. You can truly feel how much she loves and cares for the puppies she raises. Throughout the entire waiting period before our puppy was ready to come home, Julie kept me involved every step of the way. She sent regular photos and updates about her weight, personality, and temperament, which made the wait feel so special and exciting. She was always patient and kind, answering every question I had and making sure I felt completely comfortable and prepared. Julie also took the time to provide important information ahead of time, including AKC registration details, the type of food she was feeding, and how the puppies were being raised with proper housing and enrichment. It was clear these puppies were being loved, socialized, and cared for like family. The day we arrived to bring our puppy home was such a special moment. We were greeted warmly and introduced to our sweet girl, Lorelai. Julie provided all of her medical records, including vaccination and physical exam documentation, along with her AKC registration paperwork. One of the most thoughtful things she did was send us home with a blanket that carried the scent of Lorelai’s mother and siblings so she wouldn’t feel so alone during the transition. She even gave us baby pictures of her, which meant the world to us and made that moment even more meaningful. Bringing Lorelai home was such an emotional and joyful experience for our family. You can truly see the love, care, and dedication Julie pours into raising her puppies. Because of her, Lorelai came into our home confident, loved, and ready to become part of our family. I am beyond grateful for the incredible start Julie gave our sweet girl, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a puppy raised with genuine love and care!
