What we do for our puppies and you.
Socialization and Training
All our Australian Shepherd litters are raised in our home, with chances to explore outside. They are held and socialized from birth, and exposed to a variety of stimuli. We litterbox potty train our puppies, and start them on crate training. This will make transition and training easier for your new puppy as well as you.
All puppies will be raised using the Puppy Culture Protocol which you can learn more from the link below:
Preventative Care
Our puppies are given deworming medicine on a regular schedule. They receive age appropriate shots, and receive a thorough exam by a licensed vet before they go to their new homes.
Registration and Microchip
Our puppies are ASDR, ASA, ASCA and/or AKC registered Australian Shepherds in standard, miniature, and sometimes toy sizes. Many are dual and triple registrable with ASDR, ASA, ASCA and AKC. Our puppies are microchipped before they leave.
NO PUPPIES WILL BE ALLOWED TO GO MINIATURE AMERICAN SHEPHERD.
Guarantee and Insurance
Our puppies come with a 2 year genetic health guarantee. In addition, our puppies come with 30 days free health insurance as a just in case. This covers any accidents as well. We want our puppies protected.
We are always here for you!
We offer lifetime breeder support. We are always available for our puppy families to answer questions. If you can no longer take care of your puppy, we will take the puppy back – regardless of age!

Understanding the Process
Prices
Our Prices range from $1500 to $4000 per puppy, depending on several factors. Toy sized puppies will be higher end. Payment plans are an option however puppy will not leave WTNile LLC until fully paid off.
Breeding rights costs more. Should the puppy have a severe fault, such as an overbite for example and sold with breeding rights buyer as two options:
Receive the cost of breeding rights AFTER proof of spay/neuter.
Return puppy and wait for the next litter with a puppy equal in value to the one you had purchased.
Reserving an Australian Shepherd Puppy from WTNile Aussies LLC
We require a deposit to have an Australian Shepherd puppy reserved for you. We do not place any puppy on hold without a deposit. Deposit is $500 with the remainder due 7 days before pick up, or in cash when we meet.
DEPOSIT IS NOT REFUNDABLE.
Payment is acceptable through Venmo, Facebook or cash transactions.
Future Litter Pick
I always reserve first pick for myself. I do not always keep a pup, however I always reserve the option. Our goal is to stick with Tri/Bi females and Merle males.
I prefer for picks to be made around 6 weeks. This will help me better assess their temperament and drive, and ensure it is a good fit for you and your family, as well as the puppy. I will attempt stacked photos beginning from 5 weeks up until the 8 week mark. There are times I allow puppies to be reserved before 6 weeks of age. I am happy to work with you to find a dog that will suit your family and your needs. Please let me know of any special circumstances or needs you may have.
To reserve a pick place, the deposit is $500. That becomes your puppy hold fee once you select your pup, and is applied towards the total cost.
Going Home
Our Australian Shepherd puppies are usually ready to go home between 8 and 12 weeks old. This depends on the readiness of the individual pup. Our goal is to keep all puppies up until 10 weeks old but can discuss an 8 week old pick up. Standard and miniature Australian Shepherd puppies are usually ready to go about 8-10 weeks of age, while toy Australian Shepherd pups are usually ready at 10-12 weeks. The total is due 7 days before the time your Aussie puppy is sent with transportation, or is due in cash at the time you pick up.
Ground and air transportation options are available. We are happy to meet you at the airport, send via flight nanny, or ground transport. Whichever is safest for the puppy and convenient for you.
Flight nanny costs run $600-$1000 generally within the continental US.
I am happy to meet you at the Denver airport. Round trip flights can usually be found under $100, with a puppy carry on fee of $100 one way but this is only an estimate. It is your job to find out cost of your ticket to fly and to carry on the puppy back.
Health certificate from my vet for flights are required for pups flying on a plane. There is a fee if you wish to go this route. They are not required if you drive. We can meet you either in Pueblo, Colorado Springs or Denver Colorado. If you wish to go further, there will be a gas fee charge as well.
