We raise all our litters in the house so they are part of the day they aren’t out back in a cage we don’t have so many they don’t get prespoiled it’s been a way of life for us for 14 years we have slowed way down and skip heats often lots of work without the kids to help us anymore !!

Our Aussiedoodle puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Toy Australian Shepherd puppies are black tri. Miniature Australian Shepherd puppies include black & white, blue merle, and red merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
