I'm in NE area like you are, and I've been researching possible aussie kennels to go to for my future pup. Do you have any recommendations for good kennels, or warnings for bad ones?
I’m an Aussie snob so I totally have a list of breeders I recommend . I have a few I don’t like I will list them here but won’t go into detail on why I dislike them unless you message me privately . Unless is Laura Liebenow - just look up Justice For Cue and you’ll get it .
Collinswood Aussies (Pants’ Lines, I work for the breeder and know the dogs very well). Olde Bay Aussies Propwash AussiesTerra Blue Aussies Absoloot AussiesAlias AussiesBuffcap AussiesParadox AussiesSunny Acres (very much sport bred , they do not dock tails). Hemlock (Marvel’s Lines on his Moms side )
Harmony Hill has some nice dogs but I wouldn’t buy from that breeder as her morals aren’t great. Steer clear of Laura Liebenow aka Headstrong Aussies.
Do your research , ask around , go to shows , and health testing is key!
