    Tara was very nice, knowledgeable and responsive. Cookie is the first dog for my wife and I and we couldn’t be happier. We had a lot of questions and she was always there to help. We couldn’t be happier with the newest addition to our family!

    Tara aTTTNT Aussies was very responsive she messaged me back about my inquiry with in an hour. She was very knowledgeable about the breed and answered all the questions I had. She was very in tune with the dogs and informed us that Melbourne was very smart and mellowed. Just what we were looking for. We plan on getting him a playmate from a future litter!!

    Picking up my puppy, Momo, from Tara was such an incredible experience! From the moment I arrived, Tara went above and beyond—she even picked me up from the airport, which made the whole process so seamless and stress-free. Meeting Momo’s mother and father was truly special; it was amazing to see the love and care that went into raising such wonderful dogs. Tara was incredibly responsive and kind, ensuring that I had all the information and support I needed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’m so grateful to have met such a caring breeder. My heart is full, and I can’t wait for all the adventures ahead with my new furry companion! 💕🐶
