About Fancy
Fancy is an all around stunner. She has striking colors, laid back demeanor, aims to please, is quiet and doesn’t yap/bark, smart as a whip and loves to snuggle. Fancy quietly follows me around the place, loves outings, hasn’t met a person she doesn’t like and never turns her nose up to treat. The good Lord blessed us with Fancy and now we’re offering up her pups to be blessing to others. Fancy carries 1 copy of MDR1 and it takes two copies to be considered positive. Fancy carrying one copy does not affect her health or longevity and is solely a caution to the veterinary on what meds to steer clear of however we treat all our aussies regardless of the situation like they’re MDR1 positive.

This was my first experience purchasing a dog through a breeder and I was very nervous about the process. I came into it blind wondering how this was going to work if I never met the puppy; I was worried about temperament and what I would really getting. That’s when found GoodDog. I did some research and really liked their process and everything that comes with using the platform. One of my favorite features was seeing genetic testing, breeder profiles and training tools. We knew I wanted an Aussie-doodle but our budget was less than what home breeders posted. At some point I stumbled upon V5 Aussies run by Cori and her husband who focus on temperament and early education with their puppies. Their pricing is respectable and they seemed to have lots of expertise in this area. I could not tell you how happy to have gone forward with Cori’s program. We purchased a puppy from Willow and Tootles litter (May 2026). Puppies in the litter were named after snacks. I instantly fell in love with “Pickle” (and yes we kept his name) the blue merle in the litter. To say I am grateful with the amount of love and care my puppy received from them is a gross understatement. I got lots of videos & pup’dates of Pickle and his siblings. I was so excited to show my husband and friends every single one. She was also very mindful to send me tips and tricks during this time as well. She guided me to products suitable for him. Any time I had a question, Cori was there explaining everything thoroughly from beginning to end. We are so grateful to have found her. As new pet owners, V5 Aussies helped us welcome him home feeling confident. Our puppy is well mannered and smart as could be. He is 9 weeks old and nearly 100% potty trained. He is familiar with, and unbothered by, what some dogs would see as “scary” sounds (ex: hair dryers). He is relaxed when it comes to grooming. The early exposure tactics she employs really do work. And we purchased the “Empowered Puppy” book she follows to help us with the this method of training at home. Pickle is happy. He is healthy. And he is confident. If you are looking for a this kind of experience I strongly recommend Cori and her program at V5 Aussies .

Cori raised a very sweet blue merle female we were lucky enough to have join our family. Cori and Duane stayed in touch with us throughout the process and even let us meet her on a zoom call. We expected her to be a mellow pup, but not to also be so friendly and calm with people, our cats, and other dogs. It is so fun to have a soft and gently playful baby girl in our home! She is our 4th Aussie. I highly recommend Cori as a breeder. You'll find a sweet and beautiful family member!

From the moment we first connected with Cori Jean, we knew we were in the right hands. She was always communicative and responsive, sent us updates and photos while we waited, and made sure every bit of health testing and paperwork was handled with care. It was clear from the start that she puts her whole heart into what she does. We brought home our red merle Mini Aussie, Ollie, and he has brought so much joy to our family. We also did the 30-day board and train with Cori, and honestly, it was worth every penny. Ollie came home loving, well-mannered, and with a solid foundation already in place. He picked up house training almost effortlessly — just a few small accidents and he had it down. Watching him come home so confident, happy, and secure was everything we hoped for, and Cori made sure we understood exactly how to keep nurturing that. The desensitization work has been one of our favorite parts of this whole journey. Cori introduced us to the 10-step handling method, and it has been truly amazing. Nail trims, grooming, handling, things that can be such a struggle with puppies, Ollie handles beautifully. It has made such a difference in our day-to-day life, and we are so grateful she took the time to teach us how to carry it forward at home. If you are looking for a breeder who genuinely cares, about her puppies, about the families, and about the life you’ll build together, Cori Jean is the one. We would recommend her from the bottom of our hearts. 🐾
