Puppy Questionnaire
Thank you for your interest in becoming a great home for one of our puppies. Please review the following list of questions and using the questions as a guide, send us a message in the form below that describes what you are looking for in an Australian Shepherd and what provisions for the care and upbringing of the puppy you have to offer.
​
I am looking for:
(i.e., age, gender, color, disposition, Show Prospect, Breed Prospect, Pet or Companion who will be spayed or neutered)
Where do you live?
(Rural, City, Suburbs; Own, Rent)
If Renting, do you have landlord permission for this size and type of dog?
My lifestyle plans for my Aussie are:
(i.e., show, family pet, obedience, agility, herding, conformation . . . )
How much time do you have to spend with your puppy?
Where will the puppy spend his or her time, and where will the puppy sleep?
Who will be responsible for care, feeding and exercise, etc.?
How do you plan to meet exercise and socialization needs?
Are you prepared for a commitment for the lifetime of the dog, potentially into the teens?
Will you crate train your puppy, and attend puppy classes and basic obedience classes?
My dog training experience includes:
Please describe dogs you've had, past and present, and what has become of them.
Describe your yard. Is it fenced? How high is the fence?
If you have children, list ages and any problems with dogs.
Breeding dogs requires a great commitment to health, type and temperament screening. Please indicate if your plans involve breeding, health screening, evaluation regarding breeding worthiness, and necessary pre-breeding health testing and evaluation.
Will you register your puppy with AKC and ASCA?
Are you a member of any breed clubs? Do you have a kennel name?
