I breed Aussiedoodles, I own three registered miniature Austrailan Shepherd females, and a registered miniature male Poodle. My puppies are raised in a clean loving home environment. They are seen by my vet twice, once to get their tail and dew claws removed, and then at eight weeks they get a well puppy check-up and 1st shot. I worm them four times, and spend many hours socializing them to children and our other family dogs. Aussiedoodles are very intelligent, loyal breed. My pups mature to be 20-25 lbs. and are low-shed. These things make them a perfect companion for the young and older both. They are sturdy enough for children, yet small enough to be a perfect lap dog.
