I'm Monica W., the breeder behind Monica's Aussies located in Patoka, IN. Our babies are raised in our home with lots of love and care. We give all we have to each litter for healthy, happy puppies! We have tails and dewclaws done at 3 days of age. Dewormer and a check are done at 3 and 6 weeks. At 6 weeks, puppies receive a wellness check-up and the first round of shots. All is done by our vet. We had our parents Pawprint tested and all of our furbabies are AKC registered and home raised only. We look forward to connecting with you!

Why did you start breeding?
I have a great interest in animals in general. Dogs are my favorite. I enjoy watching families get excited about our puppies and watching each of them grow!
What makes your program special?
We have currently started our boys in agility. We are interested in earning titles for our dogs. My husband and I love to spend as much time as we can with our babies.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red merle and blue merle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

They live in my home.
