    I highly recommend Cassandra and her dogs! She was incredibly friendly and patient, answering every question I had—even after we brought our sweet boy home. Our boy is healthy, has the most perfect temperament, is great with children and people, and even seemed to come already house trained. Blaze (Mocha) is absolutely gorgeous—from his coat to his eyes—and truly the most perfect boy. We’re completely in love with him! If we ever decide to add another furry family member, we will definitely go back to Cassandra.

    It was wonderful to meet Cassandra and an absolute joy to meet Oscar and bring him home! Cassandra made the process easy and convenient, changing pick up time at my request.The puppy is very social, affectionate, and attentive. Oscar has brought a delightful energy to my home! He's intelligent, inquisitive, energetic, and adorable!

    We had the best experience with Soqui Ortiz Ranch. They were very responsive. Our puppy seemed very well socialized and gets along great with our dogs.

    Casandra was responsive and understanding when we got lost on our way to meet her. My boy Moose (previously known as Waylon) is an amazing little guy. He has won my 12 year old Heeler Hope over and she loves him. He knows his basic commands, come, sit, down, and bed time. He loves to go for rides in the car and the front yard is his favorite place to be. We’re working on no bite but that one is going to take a while. Based on my experience with Casandra I would recommend her any day.

    Casandra was a wealth of knowledge and worked with us throughout the entire process. We wanted to have some additional genetic testing performed and Casandra was kind enough to get the testing performed for us and kept us informed throughout the process. When we met the newest member of out family, it was obvious she had been cared for and loved. She was delivered with everything we needed for her. She quickly became an integral part of our family and is a healthy and happy girl. She and our 7 year old husky have become great friends and play all during the day. She takes it upon herself to visit every member of the family multiple times during the day. She does not want anyone to feel "left out." She truly has become our "Mattie Bear." It is obvious Casandra has spent a great deal of time and effort to learn how to breed Australian Shepherds. She is very aware of their nutritional needs, genetics, personalities and what type of homes they will flourish in. If you have any concerns, she will make sure all of your questions and concerns are answered and you receive a perfect new member of your family.

    Me and my partner had an amazing experience with Cassandra she was more than willing to answer any questions we had, and we were impressed with the care she took in choosing a home for the pups she had. Absolutely no complaints and would highly recommended her program.
