LOL that was the first thing I noticed as well. And this.

Which kind of scares me from Aussies cause I have heard the stubborn bit

BUT

Almost all of their dogs have a ton of titles in the rear end as opposed to only championships. Like rally, companion dog, canine good citizen, etc. So that leads me to believe they're pretty trainable and all the stuff I wanna do.

It's a lot of titles too, I feel like most breeders only maybe have a couple if any.

Although I do know you guys are joking and yes I thought it was hilarious too lol



Oh no, you're right, it's definitely expensive and I didn't mean to downplay it and "reasonable" is a relative word because even 1800 is still a ton of money. But I do think getting from a reputable breeder who health tests and/or does activities with them is definitely worth it. I did just look in rescue and there's a few but not many :/ also another issue I am having is finding standard breeders and not minis. Seems everyone is breeding minis and miniature American Shepherds now :/

I didn't realize there were tests for that sort of thing. I know of standard puppy temperament tests but are there others?

And it's mostly just a crazy want/pipe dream atm. I don't think I'm ready for a dog atm but maybe soon

Maybe with a purpose they won't be so bad. And I don't mean "tests" tests I mean ways to handle the pups and feel them out. Be sure they are confident. Ex : roll over on its back in my hands and be sure that it didn't freak out. If they stay calm it's a sign of a more trusting and confident dog which would be a good quality. That sort of thing.

Is it nap time yet?

I am debating on trying to go back to sleep for a little bit.

I don’t blame you. I find it kind of ridiculous that they are having you hatch them and yet they knowing sold you older eggs and are expecting half back. Did you pay for all of the eggs? If you did then I don’t think you have to give any back as they’re technically your property then.

I didn't pay for any of them. But my brother REALLY wants the mottled japs and only a few eggs made it. If all that hatches are mottled japs I will not be returning them.
And 4 of the surviving eggs are D'Uccles which I wanted in the first place. It was the whole reason I got his contact. Which means that neither me nor my brother can keep what we both want because of his 50/50 deal.
