    Diane and family were fantastic to work with. The process was quite emotional for me, having recently lost a long time furry friend, and they were all very patient and a delight to work with. Also, the pups were simply the best. Obviously very happy and just a delight to be around. For anyone looking to add an Aussie to your pack, I certainly recommend checking this ranch out.

    We had a wonderful experience with Diane! The family was incredibly kind and welcoming throughout the process. They made sure we had all the essentials to bring our puppy home, which made the transition so much easier. They were also very responsive to all our questions. You can tell they truly care about their dogs and the families they go to. Highly recommend!

    Diane was so sweet from the very first interaction I had with her. She was very knowledgeable about the breed and was so kind when exchanging messages. When we arrived to pick up our puppy, she and her husband were warm and inviting. She educated me and my husband about the breed, health records and gave tips for bringing our puppy home. Diane was a joy to work with!

    One might say these well rounded and gorgeous australian shepherd puppies are angels, and if that's the case (and it is), Diane and family are absolute saints. If you are passionate about dogs and see them as family, it can be an emotional experience purchasing a pup. Diane and family were always quick to respond to my requests for updates and photos, answer questions, and be supportive in every possible way. I reserved my baby when she was 5 days old and the last 7 weeks have been ticking by painfully slow. I will be forever grateful to Diane and family for how available, patient, and caring they were, and even more thankful for Lunacy "Luna" (formerly Metallica) who has filled our home back up to the brim with love and happiness.
