How did you learn of A Farm Online?

Are you interested in a puppy or a young adult?

Do you have a particular time frame in which you'd like to acquire your puppy or dog?

Do you have a preference for color and/or sex for your puppy? If so, how important is that to you?

Despite our best efforts to produce puppies within the mini aussie size range, occasionally one will be a bit larger, perhaps 18.5"-19" tall and up to 40 lbs. If you are seeking a companion puppy, would a larger maturing puppy be of interest to you?

Describe the temperament you're looking for in your dog. Please include activity level.

Are you aware that aussies and mini aussies are a double coated breed that sheds its undercoat heavily in the spring and again in the fall?

Are you aware that socialization is critical to the proper mental development of this breed?

What activities are you planning to do with your puppy now and in the future? ie, companion, agility, obedience, herding, conformation showing, breeding, etc.

Have you raised a puppy before? If so, what breed(s)?

Have you owned an aussie or mini aussie before? Do you still have this dog(s)? Do you have other pets?

Please list all household members and ages of any children.

Do you or a family member have allergies to dogs?

As a breeder, I spend several weeks watching the pups and learning about their temperaments. Are you willing to allow me to assist you in choosing a puppy based on the above answers?

If you are interested in a companion puppy, I will require it to be spayed/neutered by 1 year of age. Is this acceptable to you? If not, why not?
