Q. & A. with Silverside Aussies LLC (Lynn)

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We’re so happy you found us! I’m Lynn & Silverside is my small family of canine enthusiasts who strive to raise standard AKC AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS with versatile temperaments, solid structure, balanced proportions, sound movement, normal+ OFAs, full/proper genetic testing, & much more! We’re devoted to being professional, ethical breeders of sound, quality Aussies that produce happy, healthy puppies, GUARANTEED! OUR MISSION is to provide exceptional care, love, & support for each puppy from our home to yours... and beyond! After raising our first Aussie in 2009, what started as puppy love for “All-things-Aussies” quickly became our passion. A decade of research later, we finally took the plunge & have been raising Silverside Aussies full-time ever since. 🩵Please reach out anytime!🩵 We're here for our dogs 24/7 and dedicate our time to raising beautiful, well-rounded, structurally sound, genetically "clear" puppies. Every puppy gets hours of daily attention, training, and socialization, and yes, they're definitely spoiled, & by spoiled, I don't mean because they have all of the treats they can eat, well that too but what I really mean is we provide all of the mental & physical stimulation a pack of Aussies could need, beside sheep (work in progress 😉). All of our dogs are part of our family and live in our house, not a kennel.

  • What makes your program special?

“❤️RED/BLACK TRIS ARE $1600 +tax/fees ($1715 paid online via GoodDog +tax/fees)🖤 💙BLUE/RED MERLES ARE $2200 +tax/fees ($2355 paid online via GoodDog +tax/fees)🩷 FOR AVAILABLE PUPPIES: visit silversideaussies .com/available (remove space in ". com") for the most up-to-date puppy availability & information on our upcoming litters. I try my very best to instantly remove availability as people reserve their puppies!! If you're having trouble deciding on a puppy because you are just not sure how these little "potatoes" turn into the stunning, fluffballs of the future, I WOULD LOVE TO SHOW YOU! We spend hours with each puppy daily & one amazing "side effect" is that I can usually identify our puppies on sight!! Just send me some pictures of puppies you love (either ours or others) & I would love to show you which puppy or upcoming litter could check those boxes for you!!! 🥰 DISCLAIMER: All puppies are considered available until payment has been received. If you're hoping to reserve a puppy that's currently listed as available, it's always possible that someone else may be inquiring about the same pup. Please keep in mind that we do not hold puppies, therefore you should be ready to move forward & pay the deposit upon approval. You are more than welcome to prepay your deposit to HOLD YOUR PLACE IN LINE, as we will not accept your payment unless we think you would be a good fit for a SILVERSIDE AUSSIE!!! 😁 FOR THE WAITLIST: visit silversideaussies. com/waitlist (remove space in ". com) There is a $400 REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT to join the waitlist which is deducted from the price of your future puppy & all people join in the order their deposit was paid (no exceptions). By placing your deposit now, you'll secure the earliest possible date and spot in line for whenever you are ready to actually pick and bring your adorable puppy home. You ALWAYS have control to change your choices AT ANY TIME. SILVERSIDE AUSSIES WILL EMAIL EACH MEMBER ON THE WAITLIST FOR EACH & EVERY PREGNANCY CONFIRMATION & EMAIL AGAIN WHEN EACH LITTER IS BORN! Let us know if you need to update your puppy preferences or CLICK FOR WAITLIST SURVEY We organize the WAITLIST into 2 categories: 😍SEEKERs are usually looking for Pup ASAP, usually within the next 6 months, & they want (& agree) to participate in each litter's 🐶PICK/PASS❌ until finding their Pup. 🤔DREAMERs are looking to bring home a Pup at some point, but not sure when they'll be ready, but they want to start climbing to the top of the WAITLIST. 🤔DREAMERs ARE AUTO-PASSED EACH LITTER UNTIL CHANGING TO A 😍SEEKER, so make sure to NOTIFY US AHEAD OF TIME so you're not overlooked once you are ready!!! ONCE EACH LITTER IS BORN (ON DAY 1 OR 2), each 😍SEEKER on the WAITLIST will be invited to see the puppies & to submit their 🐶PICK/PASS✖️ to let us know which Puppies they would accept, in the order of their preference, or if they're still waiting for a future litter. They'll receive access to each litter's medical records so you can track their growth, ENS & ESI progress, pup-dates, vet visits, & photo albums too! We'll post puppy profiles & photo albums to our website as well! We hope to send updated videos on DAY 7 & again on DAY 13. 🐶PICK/PASS✖️ ENDS ONCE EACH LITTER IS 2 WEEKS OLD (DAY 14). We will start at the top of the WAITLIST & work our way down IN ORDER OF DEPOSIT DATE to see who submitted their choices by deadline & what Puppies they would accept. THEY WILL GET THEIR 1ST CHOICE, that Puppy will be RESERVED, & they will be removed from the WAITLIST, sign a CONTRACT, & schedule their GOTCHA DAY!! Then, we look for the next person on the waitlist who sent their choices. If their 1st Puppy Pick is still available, they will get their First Pick too or if not, they would be matched to their 2nd Pick or could even choose to PASS instead. If PICK#1 makes their selection early, we will remove that Pup's availability & notify the new PICK#1 ASAP!!”

    I can't thank them enough, my girl (Gilly) is simply wonderful! Silverside was an awesome experience even after the sale. They made a tough decision pretty easy and still provide support weeks later. Thank you for one Aussie, extra awesome

    Artemis is my first puppy and I am so glad that I chose to get her through Silverside Aussies! From all the helpful information on their website to the advice Silverside gave me on Gotcha Day, Silverside really helped me through every step of the way. They were also so accommodating, even rescheduling pickup time on Gotcha Day when other commitments I had going on that day ended early. Artemis is such a gorgeous and gregarious girl, she is such a wonderful addition to my family and I am so enthused for the years to come!

    This was my first time using Good Dog as well as working directly with a breeder. My experience was positive all the way around. The only thing I didn't quit like were the extra fees Good Dog charges and if you decide to skip any of their policies/steps, "they can't help you". So please read other reviews and and make sure you have extra funds to cover your investment. Now Lynn was amazing!! Answered my questions and concerns, super friendly during Gotcha Day. The only thing I didn't like about Silverside was that I wasn't able to meet the puppies before making a deposit or anytime after. It's like you pick one and that's what you get. Before you crucify me, I understand the breeder has a right to protect their animals, families, and whatever else. It just made it a little harder on me, because the nugget I choose is a little bananas. Definitely not a calm one. Lol! It's been almost a month; we're finally figuring out our pecking order. Overall I'm happy and would do it again.

    Our experience with Silverside Aussies was amazing, from start to finish. She kept us continuously updated with pictures and milestones for Finn and he is an amazing puppy! He is fitting in so well, with the family and the neighborhood. He's 11 weeks today and he's growing like a weed! We absolutely adore him🥰

    Working with Silverside Aussies was such a smooth process. They are incredibly responsive and keep you updated from the time you choose your puppy to the time you pick them up. Their puppies are so beautiful! We got the sweetest little guy and we couldn't love him more! We highly recommend working with Silverside Aussies.

    I’m a first time puppy owner and came across Silverside Aussies online just simply searching for breeders close to where I live. Their website is very user friendly, organized, easy to navigate, and is always updated with new info about the puppies. When I placed my deposit and reserved my pup, the whole process went so smoothly! I would get weekly pup dates and pictures of my girl, Marigold, through google photos which definitely settled all of the anticipation I was having with waiting months to meet her. It felt like I already knew her with how frequently I would get updated pics and videos of her playing. If I had any questions or concerns, I could message the breeder via Google photos or text the breeder and receive a reply almost instantly, if not within 24hrs. She was always very prompt with responses and was genuinely so wonderful to work with. Silverside Aussies is definitely a trusted breeder. They were very transparent with everything. She gifted me the best thing I could ever ask for, and you can genuinely see how much she cares not only for her pups but for her customers too. My partner and I definitely plan on adopting another Aussie from Silver Side Aussies in the future.
