All of our puppies are ASDR and AKC registered. Our dogs are spoiled and cared for tremendously. There is no greater joy than matching our pups with the perfect family.What 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.

+4I was so afraid to even look for a dog online (puppy mills, unethical breeders) but when I saw the beautiful puppies and parents at WIAs, I took a chance and messaged the breeder, Kendra. Kendra sent me all the info I requested and even worked with me when I needed to adjust pickup for my puppy Chestnut, now Percy. I got to see their beautiful homestead, meet their dogs and their children. I was happy to see that they provide so much enrichment for their puppies and any dog would be lucky to call their place home. Our puppy, Percy, has been with us now a few days and he is an absolute delight. He's calm, smart and obviously beautiful! He's never had an accident in the house and is doing great with crate training-keeping rocks out of his mouth is another story! Kendra and I have kept in touch and she's very interested in the outcome, happiness and health of her pups!

Kendra was great to work with! She answered all my questions and concerns. Lavi is the best dog I have ever adopted. She has such a calm & sweet demeanor. Seriously the sweetest puppy ever! I can tell Lavi was so loved by Kendra & her family. I feel that’s why she’s so sweet natured. I would definitely adopt your new puppy from Kendra. She was absolutely amazing to work with. She is breeding healthy, sweet & beautiful puppies.

I had such a wonderful experience working with Kendra from Whispering Iris Aussies. It was clear from the very beginning that she and her family genuinely loved my puppy long before I ever brought her home. Kendra was patient, kind, and always willing to answer the million-and-one questions I asked her. She even helped me choose the puppy whose personality would fit me the best and she absolutely nailed it. My puppy, McKenzie, is the sweetest, most lovable puppy, and she’s already showing how smart she is. She gets along well with other people and pets. She’s always a happy puppy and I’m so thankful for her. I highly recommend Kendra from Whispering Iris Aussies. I can’t say enough good things about my experience!
