Located in Winchester, VA. Never Settle Acres has been breeding Standard Size Australian Shepherd puppies for the last eight years. Employees of Never Settle Acres consist of myself, an United States Air Force Veteran and mother of two. My kids are a big part of preparing our puppies for their new homes. We have three dams, a7 year old black tri Rizzo (52 lbs) (she's had 5 litters in the last 5 years), Liza Jane ,a5 year old red tri (50 lbs)(she's had two litters in the last three years), and Dani (42lbs) our two year old blue merle who will have her first litter in the upcoming months. Zukko is one of my sires. He's a6 year old red merle (63 lbs). Maverick is our 2 year old red tri (60 lbs). INFO ON OUR CURRENT LITTER: Standard size Australian Shepherd puppies. Born May 26, 2024. Ready for pick up on or after July 21, 2024. Tails are docked. All required vaccinations and recommended de-wormings will be performed. A health certificate from my veterinarian will accompany your puppy. I do not offer a health guarantee. I’ve been in business for eight years and as of this date, I have never been notified of any issues with my puppies (please refer to the numerous posts/comments/shares/etc. on my Facebook page xxxx. CKC registrable (for an additional fee $200). Parents on site. Mom (Rizzo) is a Black Tri about 53 lbs and Dad (Zukko) is a Red Merle about 62 lbs. Rizzo, our dam, is affectionate. She is also protective of my family, our property, and her puppies. This will be her fifth litter and does extremely well caring for her puppies as you would do for your own children! She loves these little fuzz balls. Her motherly instincts come naturally. She likes to stay close to our family whether we’re in the house or outside keeping up the 10 acres of land she loves to explore. She likes to know where everyone is. She likes to cuddle on the couch and our beds when we take a break. She lays behind me while I work throughout the day but isn’t hesitate to let me know when she needs attention or needs to go outside. Zukko, our sire, he’s a big love bug. He’s strong and handsome. He is the sweetest guy. Every time he’s fed and watered, he reaches for a kiss on his nose. He loves to be right at your heels. Loves to be talked to. He loves any kind of positive attention really. On the rare instances I have to use my stern voice, he’s immediately sorry. You can see it in his body language and mostly his eyes. He also loves to cuddle and give kisses. Both of these dogs are very observant and can tell when my day’s not going the way I had hoped. The emotional support they provide is second to none. In addition, they are very cognizant of the energy/vibes people give off. This is my eleventh litter here at xxxx between three dams. I’ve had many repeat buyers and lots of compliments on my puppies’ personalities and demeanors. Merle puppies are $1,370.00 (includes 5.3% sales tax).
