Meet the Aussies! (part one)
Skye, the dog that started it all! Skye is a shining example of why you should support ethical, established breeders instead of just taking a random person off the internet's word. Sure, craigslist is easy to find a puppy, but are the people trustworthy? Do they care about the dogs, or just in it for quick money?
We bought Skye at 6 months old as a "purebred" Australian Shepherd. We were just getting into the breed, so we took the word of these people thinking people wouldn't just lie about something like that, would they?
They absolutely would. Skye is the farthest from purebred than any of our dogs here at ALOE Aussies. Because we DNA and health test all of our dogs, we quickly learned that she is 49% Standard Aussie, 35% Border Collie, 5% Mini American, 5% Kelpie and 2% Golden retriever (just for flavor I guess.)
Despite this, Skye is an INCREDIBLE dog, and while we don't condone breeding mixed breed dogs, Skye is our ONLY and last exception. In all other aspects beside breed she is amazing, healthy, and the most loyal companion. She goes everywhere with us, never needs a leash, loyal beyond compare. She is by nature just an outstanding dog. She produces big, healthy puppies with fantastic temperaments that make amazing companions and fit into any lifestyle.
Just to not continue the dilution of the breed, we do not allow puppies produced by her to be bred in their new homes. But if you are looking for an amazing new family member, with an amazing demeanor and an eagerness to please, Skye's puppies are where it's at.
Skye will only be having one more litter with us at ALOE Aussies before she is spayed and kept as a nanny dog (a dog that is not the mother of the puppies but helps to take care of puppies and teach them manners/social skills) because she just loves raising puppies. This litter will be her 4th and final litter.
