I'm Raul and Kelly N., the breeder behind Two Nichols Aussies located in Alamogordo, NM. My wife Kelly and I breed our dogs to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives. 🥰🐾 At Two Nichols Aussies we go above and beyond what most breeders do! I have spent lots of time carefully researching to make sure that we provide healthy and well tempered puppies to our families. We start at 3 days of age with neuro stimulation training. Our puppies are handled every day and raised in our home. 😊🐾 Our puppies are introduced to the crate and spend individual time in crates prior to leaving for their forever homes making our families happy and less stress for our puppies. At about 4 weeks we start their confidence training. This training teaches them to be trusting and prevents skittish/fearful behaviors. Your puppy is socialized with children, other dogs, lots of people. We work hard to provide you with a well rounded confident and loving puppy!! Your puppy comes to you microchipped, Litter AKC registered, age appropriate shots, tail docked and dew claws removed. We also provide you with a packet of information to aid in understanding your puppy and to make the transition into its forever home as easy as possible. Your puppy has a blanket and toy that has the scent of mom and litter mates. Also we include a health record. Our puppies come with a lifetime contact to answer any questions or concerns. I hope that helps give you an idea of who we are here at Two Nichols Aussies 😊 🐾 If you decide you definitely want a Two Nichols puppy a $500 deposit will hold you a place on our waitlist. I can put you on the waitlist without a deposit as well however those with a deposit have first choice. Your deposit is refundable until you choose a specific puppy at which time it becomes non refundable. I can send you a copy of the contract and a receipt once I receive the $500 deposit. I also like to chat with you prior to a deposit. I will update with pictures of your baby as he/she grows with us. Thank you so much for reaching out to us to find you the perfect fur baby! 😊🐾 Blessings, Kelly Nichols Two Nichols Aussies.

We’re so grateful we found Two Nichols Aussies and got to work with Raul and Kelly. From the start, they were incredibly kind, easy to communicate with, and just genuinely great people. The entire process felt smooth and stress free. They kept us updated with pictures and videos of our new baby Maverick, which we loved. Even though we have experience with puppies and the breed, we still really appreciated how knowledgeable and open they were. They gave us great advice on food, vitamins, training, and neutering timelines and were always open and easy to communicate with. You can truly tell how much care they put into their dogs. Their Aussies are absolutely beautiful, well cared for, and raised with so much love. When Maverick came home, he had a full go home bag with his vaccine records, microchip information, toys, and a blanket. They also took care of his dewclaw removal and microchipping, which was such a thoughtful touch and made bringing him home even easier. Maverick came home incredibly well tempered and is honestly one of the easiest puppies we’ve ever had. He has been the perfect addition to our family, he is so beautiful, and we’ve loved watching him grow and settle into his personality. If we’re ever in the market for another Aussie, we will without a doubt be reaching out to Raul and Kelly again. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Two Nichols Aussies.

Raul and Kelly are amazing people who truly care for their dogs. Not only were they extremely cooperative and friendly, they were also super professional. They sent us home with a fur baby and set us up with everything we would need for him, which we’re extremely grateful for. 10/10 definitely would recommend!!

I had such a great experience getting my new pup! Raul and Kelly are caring and bent over backwards to make sure I was able to get our beautiful girl…the even had their family members drive to phoenix so we didn’t have to make the drive. Their puppy are also very well priced and they take amazing care of the pups and even after I got our pup they have checked in to make sure the transition to the new home went well and provided me with how they have been feeding them.
