    We fell in love with our puppy, Molly, at first site. All it took was a photo of a brand-new black and white pup with a pink nose with her proud mama, Ruby, smiling in the background. True ^, but I also wanted to be sure we were supporting an ethical breeder. We were in the market for a new dog and knew we wanted another Australian Shepherd. Tyler and April answered all of my questions and were clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the breed and ethical breeding, and they made sure the puppies went to loving families. As for Molly, I couldn't ask for a better dog. She is gorgeous, sweet, well-behaved, easy to train, spirited, silly, and playful.
