NO Puppy or Dog will be sold to solely breeding homes , we do NOT "sell breeding rights".
This means any home that does not title or breed for a purpose (herding, conformation, agility, etc.).
Every purposefully bred litter produces pet/companion quality puppies, this is why we will not consider only producing companions a purpose i.e. breeding your "family pet" for the experience.

We are dedicated to protecting and preserving our breed & Breed standard.
ALL puppies will be banded/docked per our breed's standard unless being brought to a country that has a docking ban.
Tails are done within 42-72hrs of birth, because of this it is impossible to tell which puppy will go to which home and who stays with us.
Another reason we will not accept requests to leave tails on.
However, if you are set on having a Aussie with a tail, there are several Canadian provinces who can no longer dock due to a loss of their rights and will be an excellent choice, we can supply the names of these breeders.
