Meet the breeder

I'm Anita W., the breeder behind Forever Aussies and A Doodle located in Charlestown, IN. We are a forever Aussie family that started over 20 years ago as a mother-daughter team. Our puppies are raised as members of our family until they’re ready to join yours. We do our best to breed with total care by primarily focusing on raising healthy, affectionate, and loyal companions. As a result of our efforts, we’re positive our puppies will become perfect family members and add just as much joy to your life as they have ours! We begin their potty training, crate training, basic commands and new sounds.

Q. & A. with Anita

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Our family has been an Aussie family for 20+ years. It was not until our daughter wanted to raise puppies so that we could share our Yona and King Xereres sweet, loyal and gently personalities with others. We fell in love with our puppies and it is so wonderful to make a difference in others lives by bringing puppies and families together.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our parents are health/genetic tested prior to breeding. We do our best to preserve our breed and produce healthy puppies with exceptional temperaments.

    Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are miniature size. Aussiedoodle puppies include toy and mini sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    We adopted our female miniature Australian Shepherd, Belle Blue, from Forever Aussies and A Doodle, and I truly cannot say enough good things about our experience—especially with Anita. From the very beginning, Anita was wonderful to work with. She answered every question we had, was incredibly open and transparent, and was always understanding of any concerns along the way. That level of communication and care meant so much to us. Our girl Belle Blue is phenomenal. She is absolutely beautiful and, without a doubt, the smartest dog I have ever owned. Her temperament, intelligence, and overall health clearly reflect the time, love, and dedication Anita puts into her dogs. You can genuinely tell she is passionate about being a responsible and caring breeder. We are beyond grateful for Belle Blue and highly recommend Forever Aussies and A Doodle to anyone looking for an amazing dog from someone who truly cares.

    Anita matched us up with the most incredible dog I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing, and that’s in big part of how she nurtures her pups from their day of birth, to the day they find their forever home. Marty is the joy of our lives and everything went so smoothly in attaining him from updates in his health and vet checks to the most pleasant delivery I could have hoped for. He’s been with us 4.5 months now and was meant to be part of our family because of how he was raised by Anita. Thank you Anita!!
