Meet the breeder
I'm HAILEY H., the breeder behind Whimsical Aussies located in Waddell, AZ. Our program is focused on raising confident and healthy puppies. We accomplishe this by implementing puppy culture training, along with handling from a young age. We want to ensure our puppies have the tools to be the most confident dogs that they can be. We have health testing on both mom and dad before breeding to ensure the best genetic outcome. Along with that the puppies are examined by a certified veterinarian who will then give them a health check and their first vaccination before going into their new homes. Our goal is to raise happy and healthy puppies that will bring as much joy in their new homes as they do to us. It is a privilege to raise these dogs and to supply their new homes and families with the same love as we experience raising them.
Q. & A. with HAILEY
Why did you start breeding?
My background has always been in agriculture and breeding animals. I have been competitive in numerous animals shows for both conformation and showmanship. My showing experiences lead me to meeting my mentor and thus began my love for raising my dogs.What makes your program special?
Our program is unique in it's dedication to our dogs. Our mother in our program is trained and certified with a Trick Title and a CGC. She is also being trained as a Stock Dog and for rally competitions. The puppies' father has numerous titles including CGC and herding titles. We train and work our dogs. Australian Shepherds are notoriouse for being energetic and clever dogs. With that being said, our parents are exceptionally intelligent and their puppies are full of the same potential. We work with the puppies from a very young age desensitizing and handling. Before the puppies go home they are familiar with having a re-call , manding, potty training, and have been introduced to walking on a leash, all before going to their new home. It is crucial that our puppies will be placed in a home that can provide them with the best lifestyle. To ensure this, we ask our potential owners to answer a questionnaire before moving forward with the deposit fee and eventually purchase of the puppy. One of our stipulations is that we ask our potential owners to have an ample yardage for the puppy to be able to exercise and play as they mature. It is one of the biggest factors we look at when selecting our potential homes. Thank youWhat are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include red merle, blue merle, black tri-color, and red tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

It is so amazing to raise dogs that can break "Tom and Jerry" stereotypes.😂 If you have a cat in your home, Fern and Juniper have already been introduced to feline friends and know to be respectful and gentle with them💚 Fern is fully vaccinated and is clear of over 200 genetic health conditions. She is already potty trained, clicker trained, kennel trained, doggy-door trained, sitting on command and walking on a leash. Fern is such a wonderful dog with a heart to please!

We had an amazing experience with Good Dog and Hailey. From the very beginning, Hailey was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and patient. She took her time answering all of our questions and made sure we felt completely comfortable throughout the process. We never felt rushed, and she really let us take the time to meet Fern and connect with her. It was clear how much Hailey cares about her dogs and the families they go to. Because of her, we truly feel like we found our soul dog in Fern. We are so grateful for this experience and couldn’t recommend Hailey and Good Dog enough.

Hailey was super responsive to answer all of my questions and figure out a time to come see Cedar. You could tell how much Hailey cares for her dogs and their wellbeing. Cedar came with everything I needed to smoothly transition him to my life and home. Cedar has quickly become an amazing member of our family and has grown so much already!

We had such a great experience with Hailey. Before bringing our puppy home, she had already put so much care and intention into her early training—Our sweet pup was well-socialized, knew simple commands, and was already nearly fully potty-trained. Since coming home, she has been incredibly easy to train, affectionate, confident, and settled right in with our family. It’s clear that Hailey gives her puppies the best possible start. We’re so grateful for her dedication and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a well-raised, loving companion.

Whimsical Aussies was a delight to work with in selecting our next fur baby. Hailey was timely, informative, warm and engaging. A lovely, healthy, and beginning trained pup was placed into our arms a week ago. Our Daisy Mae (formerly Juniper) was a real trooper on the 8 hour ride home and melted our hearts from the first moment. Hailey described her personality well which was instrumental in our selecting this 4 month old gem. Thanks Hailey!

+4Hailey was so responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. From the moment we showed interest and filled out our application, she made sure all of our questions were answered. Hailey made the adoption process fun and easy. Our sweet little girl is the absolute best and came basically potty trained already! Our puppies temperament is amazing, you can definitely tell she’s been well socialized. We are so in love with her! I would highly recommend anyone to adopt a new puppy from Hailey at Whimsical Aussies🩵

Hailey is amazing to work with! Our new buddy was already well socialized under Hailey’s care and has been a breeze to train. Best of all she provided everything I needed to successfully transition our Aussie to his new home including parent information, vaccine info, and health markers. You can feel the love and care given to our pup from day one. If you’re looking for an australian shepherd or your next canine companion I highly recommend Hailey and Whimsical Aussies!
