Courtesy Post - Contact Aj08111124@gmail.com for more info - Meet Clover, the only red girl in a litter of 6 that were surrendered by a family that was not prepared for the needs of puppies. Both parents are pure bred Aussies, mom is on the smaller side around 37 pounds and dad was around 52 pounds. These guys come from working lines and will need active families. Clover is very food motivated and incredibly smart. She loves to play with both people and other dogs. She is a great mix of get up and go and snuggle when it is time for quiet.

Story
Courtesy Post - Contact Aj08111124@gmail.com for more info - Meet Fern, the perfect mix of energy and chill. She is part of a litter of 6 puppies surrendered by a family that was not prepared for them. Both parents are pure bred Aussies, mom is on the smaller side around 37 pounds and dad was around 52 pounds. These guys come from working lines and will need active families. Fern loves her play time, especially with squeaky toys, but is just as happy afterward to curl up next to you for movies and snacks. She loves snacks as much as any other Aussie and will gladly work for her food. She is incredibly smart, but also a little stubborn. This little girl is Aussie through and through and uses her brain to problem solve. She will make a great dog for someone willing to work with her. She is crate trained and working on house breaking.
