Litters

I am SO excited about this litter! These puppies should have it all, bubbly, outgoing temperaments, the energy and drive for agility, herding, etc., the conformation for the show ring, but most importantly, the loving, velcro dog temperament Aussies are known for. Both Blitz and Carny would gladly spend their days cuddling in my lap (that is, when Blitz isn't running circles around the moon!).

Please remember that this is a 'STANDARD' litter of AKC registered Aussies, NOT minis! While I hope that they will be on the smaller side, 18 - 20 inches, I can't guarantee it.

If you think you might be interested in this litter, please fill out my questionnaire.

We decided to name these pups after punctuation marks. I've always thought Ampersand and Tilde were neat words, and my son Travis thought Underscore would be a cool name (okay, we're weird, get used to it! ;~D). By the way, we did get two mismarks in this litter. While this automatically makes them pet quality, it doesn't prevent them from competing in agility, herding, obedience, or Rally. They can also become therapy or assistance dogs, and, most importantly, they still make great pets, the most important job of all!

AVAILABLE
This is Comma .
He's also known as 'Comma the Cow', and 'Comma Chameleon'.

He's such a sweetie pie! He's what I call 'middle of the road', not overly quiet, but not overly busy, either.

Do they get any cuter than this? He's VERY people oriented and loves to snuggle. But he also has drive, I think he'd be good in agility.

This is Ampersand (Sandy), now Luke. He's got quite a little personality!

Bracket ( [ )

RESERVED

This is Bracket, now Hayden.
He has decided that the entire world is entitled to his opinion, and apparently he's *full* of opinions!

He's a busy little boy, so it's good he's going to a busy home.

Hyphen ( - )

RESERVED

This is Hyphen, now Kona. She has a nice blend of 'sugar & spice'. She's sweet, but has spunk to her as well.

Tilde (~)

RESERVED

This is Tilde, the blue merle girl. She's turning into a little pill.

She's also the most determined to go exploring. There's a world outside that whelping box, and she wants to see it!

Umlaut ( ¨ )

RESERVED

Umlaut (as in ö), is a red tri boy. He's not quite as vocal as Bracket, but he comes close. He's such a nut! He's always making us laugh.

Most of the puppies tried to make a run for it several times.

Underscore over the left arm, Hyphen/Kona over the right arm, and Ampersand/Luke trying to escape while Umlaut tries to get him to play.

Week 5 Videos
Some of these are VERY long. Please be patient while videos load.

Most of the puppies had been asleep before we started recording, so it takes them awhile to wake up.
These were recorded in our hallway, with me sitting in the bathroom door way, to try to limit their access to freedom. :~D

Ampersand/Luke is now 'Loopy Luke'
