    Samantha from Mile High Acres & Aussies was amazing to work with! She was incredibly responsive, kind, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. She was also very flexible when it came to meeting up, which made everything much easier. Our puppy was healthy, well cared for, and even had a little bit of training already, which was a wonderful bonus. It's clear that Samantha puts a lot of time and care into raising her puppies. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend Mile High Acres & Aussies to anyone looking for an Australian Shepherd, and I'd happily get another puppy from Samantha in the future. 10/10!
