Puppy yard vibes 🐾☀️ Sadly for the puppies not much outdoors time during the day this week 🥵Even in the evening, this heat is still too much for them without being extra careful. So the puppies cooled off in the puppy pool before relaxing with Sarah on the raised bed for a little bit of time outdoors. Wet fur, wagging tails, and all the summer feels 💦💛 “Gravity Falls” litter Finley x Aragorn

We’ve never used a breeder and as a first timer, we had a wonderful experience. Wren (Olive) has now been with us for 2 months and she is absolutely a joy for our family! She’s made herself right at home. She is a great sleeper at night and is ready run the yard with the older boys all day. She absolutely loves the snow, but is excited to stay busy outside as the days start warming up. We’re very happy to have Wren!

Angela and Sarah are amazing! They care deeply about all of their dogs, ensuring they are loved and ready for their new homes. Communication was excellent and they answered all my questions, which were a lot since this was our first puppy. They made the entire process so smooth and easy and even provided support once puppy came home. I cannot recommend them more highly!

Our experience with Angela and Foxtail Hollow was exactly what we were looking for. This is our family's first puppy, so we had lots of questions and didn't really know what to expect when we started the search process. She took the time to learn about our family, what it was like in our home (i.e. the activity level of our boys and how often we were home). Her goal was to match our desires and needs with a puppy that was going to be a great fit for our lifestyle. Our puppy Willow has been the perfect match for us, and she has quickly become part of our family. Angela was so generous with her time in making sure we understood everything that we needed to know about the early puppy days, and has remained engaged and available to answer all of our follow up questions, Her attention to detail, and the end-to-end experience was everything we could have hoped for. There is no doubt we would go back to Foxtail Hollow again if we were looking for another puppy, and to recommend Angela to others who are looking for a Toy Australian Shepherd.

Angela was wonderful to work with! From the start, she responded very quickly to my questions and communicated so well with me throughout the entire process. We have two young children (1 and 3) and I had a lot of questions about the puppy and the breed. Her knowledge of not only the breed, but the individual characteristics of each puppy, really helped us find our perfect addition to the family. Now that we have Teton (renamed Teddy), he matches each trait exactly as Angela described. Also, the pick up process was great too and worked out so well; Angela was very flexible with our schedule over the holidays. I can honestly say, this was the best experience I've ever had with getting a pup. I look forward to sharing updates with Angela and her family as "Teddy" grows.

Honestly this was the best experience I’ve ever had buying a dog, her knowledge and quality of care was exceptional. I’m from out of state so communication was a big part and she was so great about answering all questions and keeping me informed and updated on how the pup was doing during the weeks before. She even sent updating photo shoots which is something my family asked about constantly because she did so many they got addicted. We are from out of state and she helped set everything up and brought the dog to me for a great price. The records of vet visits and upkeep on the dog were quite detailed and she didn’t spare any care as some do when selling a pup because they don’t want to put more $$$ into it. She clearly put the dogs care above all else and is made to provide these services. Honestly I cannot recommend her enough and we cannot be happier with our new baby girl
