I can’t believe our beautiful, loving, hilarious retired mama Blake (red tri) still has not found her new family to love. ❤️
Blake has great recall, can live inside or out, is registered, spayed and health tested. She loves kids. Gets along well with almost anyone and anything. Lower on the Aussie energy scale. She originally came to us from Alabama.
Asking price is just over what it cost us to spay her.
Please help us find her new people to love as she has so much of it to give! 🥰

Ok so I feel the need to express an opinion/facts I’ve learned in my 10 years of breeding, learning and connecting with other breeders.
Know that if you want to get into the amazing, rewarding, heart wrenching, challenging world of breeding, you are also getting into a significant financial commitment with no guaranteed profit, unless you charge out the nose for your pups, which, in my opinion is another version of unethical.
That being said, if you are not in the position to invest even $1500-$2000 into an Aussie with rights, you may want to consider taking a bit more time to obtain the funds and knowledge to breed ethically. Most will cost you double that with rights. Breeding quality dogs is not cheap. Some breeders take advantage of this and way overcharge for their pups. But most don’t.
Now I know saying things like only quality expensive dogs should be bred can sound very stuck up. That’s how felt when I would hear things like this before I got into the industry. But becoming more knowledgeable and experienced in this world has taught me differently. Breeding purebred dogs can result in a lot of health problems when not done properly.
I don’t believe that every dog needs to be a superstar, purebred etc etc. I love me an accidental Heinz 57. But if you are breeding intentionally then it’s up to you to ensure you’re not producing dogs with potential health or temperament issues and that they fit within or as close as possible to a breed standard.
If you want to breed Suzie to Sammy once because they’re both cute and good dogs and you really want some cute puppies I will not judge you.
That’s none of my business. But if you’re buying a dog with rights please please please consider it a serious financial, ethical and moral responsibility and commitment and do not buy the cheapest you can find. While I will not say all of these dogs will not be breeding quality, because that’s not fair, the odds that they’re not is very high and they should be left to be a beloved spayed or neutered pet.
When I’m told that below market price for a reduced price dog with rights is too much I know that not making that sale is the right thing anyway.
It’s hard to make a statement like this without sounding stuck up and judgemental. That’s not at all what’s breeders feel.
When we breed we have a responsibility to those babies to give them the best chance at a long, healthy life and ethical, educated breeding is the only way to do that. This comes at a cost to the breeder so those pups will not be at the bottom of the price range. ♥️

I have decided it’s time to make a decision on which girl to keep back and which to let go. It was really tough (9 months worth of tough) but I’ve decided to let Ginger bless someone else’s home.
Reasons for letting her go:
1. MDR1 positive. Even though our male is negative I try to reduce the risk of even producing carriers if I can help it.
1. She is the more vocal and energetic of the two and I am trying to move my program to lower drive Aussies to make for more universally suitable offspring.

Ginger is a beauty!! Nice coat. Perfect markings. Just the right amount of bone for a large toy/small mini. Stunning blue eyes to boot! ASDR.
She is extremely friendly and outgoing but due to some unforeseen life changes, has not been given the attention she needs to develop good manners. True to the breed, however, I’m sure wouldn’t take much at all to teach her.
As mentioned, Ginger is high energy and will require a home to suit. She has grown up with our other dogs but has not been exposed to many friends outside of that.
Available to a breeding or pet home. If she goes to a pet home she will be spayed before leaving at the cost of the new owner.
My daughter will be crushed as Ginger is her favorite but we just can’t keep them all. 😢

Borrowed from another post:

Dear Customer,

Congratulations on acquiring your Aussie. Please find the instructions for your particular model listed below:

Although your Aussie comes fully assembled, due to particular issues during production, we do occasionally have issues with components such as screws. They invariably are either loose or missing altogether.

Mode 1: This is the sleep mode, activated for some of the day as the Aussie ages. This is normal and you should not worry about it, just accept the peace and quiet while you can.

Mode 2: Anarchy. Although we have tried to ease the effect of anarchy mode, it’s not always possible. There are inherent issues with the timer settings of anarchy mode in regards to there being none. Should your Aussie suddenly go from comatose to running around the walls, we cannot stop this feature.

Mode 3: Velcro. We believe somewhere in the assembly process someone installed an elite magnet that only is attracted to humans. We apologize in advance for the constant interruptions in the bathroom and any other place that requires privacy.

Naming: Your Aussie comes untitled as we feel owners should use names of their own. If you are unsure, we have listed below a few names our owners like to use:

Did you do this?
You’re kidding me
Give that back!
Don’t you dare
Ausshole
Put that down
Whyyyy?
Get that out of your mouth!
Stop herding the children

Software: Your Aussie is pre-installed with the highest software and hardware. This includes the loyalty chip, the love every one chip, the neurotic chip, the fun chip and, of course, the highly popular mayhem chip. They are all running on the WHATTHEFU@@ operating system 12.2. Although this has been in circulation for many years, we have found it simply cannot be improved upon.

Feel free to inform us of any other surprise bonus Modes that have popped up by contacting customer support at 1-800-Aus-hole.

Thank you and enjoy your new Aussie!

Sincerely,

Your Customer Support Team

😍 Pretty boys make pretty babies😍
Our main man, Fabio. He gets to move into the house for the winter and feels quite special for it.

11/21/2023

Mr Smoke would love to come bring your family some happiness and joy this season.
Ready Nov 26
Pls PM

11/19/2023

I’m happy to say that our feisty baby Jack (red Merle) and beautiful baby Georgia (red tri) have found their fairytales.
Now that just leaves sweet baby Smoke hoping for his happily ever after.
Ready to go Nov 26.
PLS PM FOR DETAILS

11/17/2023

Oh little baby Jack, how you make our hearts happy 🥰.
The pups had their first adventure outside today and when I called them in Smoke and Georgia came but Jack came and said, nah thanks, I’m good. I think I’ll just hang out here. Lol.
Pm if you’d like more info on him or Smoke.

11/15/2023

I’m not just saying this as a marketing tactic, but if it weren’t for house training and the fact that I’m downsizing I’d sooo be keeping this whole litter! Dally and Fabio make the most beautiful babies with the best personalities ever!

11/14/2023

Todays feature puppy is affectionately known as Jack.
Jack is a happy, confident, playful people lover.
With his broad stance, adequate bone and beautiful head he is the largest in the litter, currently weighing 3.3 lbs at 6 weeks old. (Sister and brother are 3 and 2.8 lbs).
Should mature 12”, 15lb range.

11/14/2023

This is what it looks like when we try to take a little floor space to play a game. Lol

11/12/2023

I’m very pleased to say that our beautiful Ballerina has finally found her amazingly loving family🥰
It just makes our hearts so happy to add more great families to our big happy AT Aussie family!

This now leaves our two retired mamas and two 6 week old babies currently available with one or two more mature mini pups possibly being offered in the coming months.

11/05/2023

Todays feature puppy is this little cutie.
BMM weighed in at 2.2lbs at 4 weeks (almost 5 weeks now). He’s the smallest in the litter with a 0.5lb gap between the largest and him.
Though he is small he’s not afraid to speak up for what he wants.
Parents are 12 & 13”, 13 & 15lbs.
Eye color is tbd as they are blue right now but not as bright as some have been at this age.
25% chance of being an MDR1 carrier and will be clear for the rest of the panel.

11/03/2023

I have decided to entertain offers on Chiclet.
Chiclet is a very loving family dog looking for her forever.
Chiclet will soon be 5 yo and has been spayed and retired from our program.
She would do best in a home without cats as her herding instinct is strong.
I don’t think people believe how much it cost to spay nowadays. I know I was shocked when we took 3 of our girls to be spayed. We have only been asking for the price of her spay but when people hear what that is we do t hear back.
Chiclet has had 4 people make appointments to pick her up only to back out and she deserves better than that. She deserves as much committed love as she will give you.
If your family is ready for a new member and you think Chiclet might be it pls pm me

11/01/2023

Growing more everyday. 🥰
Officially 4 weeks old today
RMM - searching for his next adventure
BMM - searching for his next adventure
RTF- found her new fairytale adventure

10/25/2023

When the brand new bed you bought just isn’t quite good enough for everyone. 😆
BMM figured laying on mom was more comfy apparently.
BMM & RMM would love to find their happily ever after with you. ❤️

10/23/2023

When the kids finally get to start playing with the puppies 🥰

10/21/2023

I’m so happy to say that Disco has found his new loving family! They came to meet him with plans to go check out other breeders after but fell so in love with him they brought him home on the spot 💕
Disco’s sister Ballerina is still hoping for the same experience.

10/20/2023

Thursday night feels. Haha.
Perfectly snuggled in a soft comfy bed, eyes half closed with a content little grin

10/19/2023

This little dude is so photogenic! Maybe because he’s too busy eating and sleeping 🤷🏼‍♀️😆🥰

10/18/2023

Dally says ‘ya, that’s right…I made these precious little lard balls and they’re mine’ 😍
I tell ya if I was looking for a male for my program I’d keep one of these two merles! Red merle is perfectly thick and round. Blue merle is eye catching and petite. ❤️

10/16/2023

Ugh…I just can’t even! 😍
These little milk guzzlers are getting pretty pudgy and eyes are just starting to open 🥹
Both Merle boys will be using those cute little eyes to help look for their new families.

Pls pm if interested

10/13/2023

I’ve had so much interest in Blake but sadly no follow through.
I haven’t been pushing her rehoming because she’s the type of dog that’s enjoyable to have around. ♥️
Just turned 5, spayed, retired mama. Originally brought up from Alabama.
Blake is an extremely calm and easy going Aussie. Can live inside or out. Good with indoor cats, may chase outdoor cats.
Suitable for a family with kids or a retired senior.
Rehoming fee just over what it cost us to spay her.
PLS PM IF INTERESTED AS COMMENTS ARE OFTEN MISSED AND I DONT WANT TO FILL THE POST FEED WITH Q&As. ☺️

10/07/2023

It’s weigh day for these cutie patooties today 😃

1st we have Mr Chunky Pants aka Peach 🤷🏼‍♀️
He’s the largest in the litter at a whopping 0.75lbs!
He seems to be the calmest in the litter too…thus the weight gain 😆 and apparently he’s also quite photogenic 🤩

2nd we have Sir Squirmsalot aka Vival 🤷🏼‍♀️
He’s the smallest at a very respectable 0.65lbs 💪🏻
He’s more vocal and alert than the other two and oh so pretty! 😍

Last but certainly not least, the lone woman Miss Wallflower aka Apple Berry 🤷🏼‍♀️
The only female weighing just almost brothers at 0.68lbs. 🥹
Not as flashy as her brothers she’s often overlooked but that bright red coat and deep copper trim will make her a stunner!
She is also tentatively spoken for.

Born Oct 2 (and 3 technically but that’ll confuse ASDR lol).
Ready for new adventures with you Nov 26 🎉
Should mature 12-13”, 10-15lbs

I can’t believe our beautiful, loving, hilarious retired mama Blake (red tri) still has not found her new family to love. ❤️ Blake has great recall, can live inside or out, is registered, spayed and health tested. She loves kids. Gets along well with almost anyone and anything. Lower on the Aussie energy scale. She originally came to us from Alabama. Asking price is just over what it cost us to spay her.

Daddy Buddy playing with his 5 mo babies. 2 of these would love to love you, baby! ❤️🎶 Disco: red tri male with one blue eye Ballerina: red tri female with amber eyes. Mom Blake in the house at the end of the video. Blake is retired and looking to move on to something new as well.

Blake trying to get some play time in with her daughter, Dally, the cat, Novera and Our daughter. Blake is so gentle with kids 🥰 and would love to come be your families new best friend ❤️

Dally and our kitten Novera having a play. 🥰 I never know how Aussies are going to be with cats because of their strong herding instinct but it appears that, when inside, they are so far all totally ok with her. Outside, some like to chase the cats. Inside they seem to know it’s my territory, not theirs so anything I have in there is an equal. Even our currently available pups will play quite enthusiastically with her inside but never with an open mouth or intent to injure. Dally is expecting a litter of toy babies at the end of September. 😍

So, bad video, I know. But Chiclet is now hoping to find her new forever family. She has officially been retired from our program and was spayed yesterday so she’ll be ready to go in about a week. Very reasonable rehoming fee for her as she requires the right home. Chiclet is a 4yo ASDR mini originally from Packets. Chiclet loves people and is super sweet and attentive but mentally active. She is a talented climber/jumper when she’s bored and requires a home without cats or other intact females (may be better with this now that she’s fixed). She’s used to small kids and has lived indoors or out. She would love an active outdoorsy family with small children.

This boy wants so badly to find his family ❤️ Born May 1. Has had first shots, deworming and vet check. Should mature 15-16”, 25-30 lbs. Ready to go and recently reduced due to life changes requiring me to reduce my program faster than anticipated! This litter is the last chance to own a puppy with all the genetics of our foundation dogs 🥰🥰

Parentage confirmed as we suspected. Buddy (BET in video) is the sire of Blake’s final litter. These babies have the genetics of all 3 of our program’s foundation dogs. Should mature 14-16”. Strong BET genes. 3 females and 1 male available.

Getting adventurous and feisty 😈 Really liking the thickness on this litter. 2 RTF, 1 BTF, 1 RTM available

🥰🥰🥰

Our muddy mama Blake showing us her baby belly. This will be Blake’s last litter for us before being spayed and offered for rehoming in the summer. Babies are expected in the next couple weeks and should mature between 13-14”. All colors possible. Blake is low key for an Aussie, but still an Aussie. Doesn’t let you too far out of site and loves to lay around and get cuddles. Suited for indoor or outdoor life; house with a yard or apartment with daily exercise. Pls pm if you may be interested in Blake or one of her babies.

Happy National Puppy Day!! Miss Lady would love to bring this kind of joy and mischief to your lives ❤️ Will mature to a small toy.

These two 14 week old happy go lucky sisters are still looking for their forever homes. The black tri was sold but due to a change in family circumstances is now available. She’s a thick, stocky girl. Estimate she’ll mature around 15-16”, 25-30 lbs. The Merle girl is a stunner with beautiful soft tan points and eyeliner around her ice blue eyes. Estimate her to mature around 14-15”, 20 lbs. Dad is blue Merle, 13”, 12 lbs. Mom is red tri, 16.5”, 30 lbs.

A little grandma, mom and baby play time. 🥰Three generations having a good time together. At almost 7 weeks old the tiny red Merle female weighed in at 1.9lbs ☺️

Who can resist that juicy wiggle. 😆 😍 Toy female, looking.

😂 Any other moms feel Dally’s sense of defeat?

Chiclets two little mini cuties ready mid Feb. Both 🎀 One dreaming, one finding a spot to dream. Due to fb rules pls inquire for more details.

This is what Dally thinks of her first pregnancy. 😆 It feels like I’ve been waiting forever for this girl to be mature enough to give us some teeny little babies! So excited. Babies expected in the next couple weeks and should mature 10-13”, 10lb range. Patiently hoping to see all colours 😍 I just love my little Dally girl! ❤️

Lol. Clearly a seasoned mama. Chiclet and her 2 little men. Eyes should be opening soon. Both available and ready for their new homes early/mid August.

This little fireball is available. Blue Merle mini male. He loves people, playing and adventures. From ASDR, health tested parents. Will be clear on everything except 25% possibility of being a non-affected carrier of MDR1. Ready for his new home Valentines Day but can stay an extra week if needed.
