Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Susquehannock Aussies located in Drumore, PA. My husband and I have 5 acres that we share with our Australian Shepherds. We have had several people ask if we leave tails, I am open to leaving a tail if pup is paid for in full before 3 days old. This being said personalities and eye color are not revealed as of this time period.

Lauren’s experience

  • About Lauren

    I live in Lancaster County PA. My husband and I have a 5-acre farmette. We have raised sheep, cattle, hogs, horses, chickens, etc. I love animals and after meeting the Australian Shepherd breed I fell in love with them and wanted to share the breed with others.

  • What makes Lauren’s program special

    Our Aussies are members of our family. They live in the house with us and all puppies are whelped in house. Our Puppies are well socialized with us and friends. We do try to accommodate our puppy buyers, I am willing to leave a tail on a puppy BUT this procedure has to be performed BEFORE the pup is 5 days old puppy has to be picked out and paid for before this time. Payment will not be refunded.
