I was invited to meet our puppy at Christine’s home and was so excited when I first saw her. Piper is outgoing and affectionate which tells me she was raised in loving surroundings. I was given extensive information on her parents and her health. In addition there was a large packet of information on what her daily schedule was and advice going ahead. I also received a generous amount of food and her personal toys, collar and leash. This is way more than I got from a previous breeder. I could not recommend them more highly. I feel if I have any questions or concerns I could contact them and they would respond promptly. This experience was a 5 star.

We feel so lucky to have found Christine and Autumn & of course our beautiful puppy. The whole process has been an amazing experience from the very first conversation to even now. It’s clear that they are not only caring & loving people but also incredibly knowledgeable. When we met Christine & her family, they were so kind and welcoming, and we got to meet the mom & dad of our new puppy, which made the experience even more special. Every question we have had has been answered with care, & they have gone above and beyond to help us. We received so much valuable advice about puppy care, nutrition, training, and everything was explained so clearly. Even though we have had a dog before, we learned so much about the unique needs of Australian Shepherds. We are so grateful to have gotten our puppy from such amazing, caring, and knowledgeable family. This whole experience has been wonderful, and we could not be happier.

From our very first message, Christine and Autumn were incredibly responsive and provided detailed information right away. They took the time to call us to verify details and make sure we would be a good, responsible fit, which we really appreciated and found reassuring. Meeting them in person was an absolute pleasure—they were kind, welcoming, and it was clear how much they genuinely care about their dogs. Their passion and dedication truly showed in everything they shared with us. They also made it very clear that they’re always available for updates, questions, or support, which means a lot as new puppy owners. Our puppy Coia is beautiful, intuitive, playful, and so so sweet. We love her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Christine and Autumn to anyone looking for breeders who are knowledgeable, thoughtful, and truly invested in their puppies’ well-being! Thank you guys so much!!!

I couldn’t be more happy with my puppy from Winsome Aussies! Christine and Autumn were super helpful through the entire process. Meeting them you can tell how much they love their dogs. Their knowledge and certifications are impressive. After we got back they even checked in on us to see how our first day went. If you’re looking for an Aussie look no further.
