Question 2

When can we come visit?

Accepted Answer

Answer: Here at Magical Toy Aussies we put a lot of time and money into raising high-quality Toy & Mini  Australian Shepherds in our home. We are excited to work with serious buyers to find their perfect pup. If you are purchasing a puppy from me you are more than welcome to come out to meet the dogs and pick your puppy after puppies first vaccination at 4 weeks of age. But I'm sorry, I do not allow people to come to just  "play with puppies" or meet the parents. We don't have a kennel, so you are coming into our home.
 
We also require that you do not go to any other kennels or pet stores before coming to our home as we want to keep our puppies safe. We also do not allow other pets on our property nor do we let anyone handle any puppies that are under 4 weeks of age or that haven’t received there vaccination yet.

Answer: It is very important that puppies are properly socialized so they become well-adjusted dogs. I use the Puppy Culture Program. Puppies have been very well socialized around people, other dogs, children, and are very comfortable with a household environment. Parents and puppies are all house dogs.
