Additionally, our puppies are on their way to being potty trained.

    Our puppies include rough and smooth coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

    Our puppies include tri-color, black and white, blue merle, red merle, and white and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    Jennifer is an amazing breeder. She kept us up to date on all milestones of our puppy Dakota. We had the wonderful experience on watching our pup grow from the begining to when we took him home with multiple pictures of him and his siblings. I highly recommend Jennifer! She has beautiful dogs that produce beautiful puppies.

    Our Groot is a very cute puppy and he is very good at using designated areas to defecate! He can also understand words like "no" and "sit." After we picked up the dog, he did well and handled the five-hour drive with ease. Our breeder is very patient and responsible, and she is able to answer our questions about the puppy quickly. All the tests and weight records were done very well, even when we went to the doctor today, doctor said she was doing very well! Thank you so much for meeting such an excellent breeder!

    We started the process with Good Dog who put us in touch with Jennifer at Furtabulous Australians shortly after their birth. I described the dog I was looking for. In our case Merle and tailless. Didn’t care about the gender as I have had both. She picked “Petey” for us. We have seen his development since darn near birth until the day before we received him. We felt like we knew him when we met him. He has been a typical active Aussie pup. At times pure delight and others pure terror. He earned the affectionate nickname of little monster. If you have not discovered cows hooves as a chew toy, do yourself a favor. He loves them as his favorite chew item. Saves a lot of little chewing accidents. Petey is a very smart and very quick learner. We are almost completely house broken going days without accidents. He sleeps all night and walks into his crate with minimal push. He was leash walking within days of coming home and enjoys walks up to a mile at 12 weeks. He still gets his doggie naps but is active most of the day. All in all a great experience with Jennifer and the pup. Would recommend her puppies from everything we can see.

    Jennifer has been very helpful every step of the way. You can tell she establishes a good foundation for her puppies. Roscoe is doing well with crate training, potty training, and meeting new people/animals. I am looking forward to watching him grow up..but not too fast!
