Aussies with Tails: Embracing Natural Beauty
At Painted Blue Aussies, we proudly embrace the natural beauty of our Australian Shepherd puppies and Mini Aussie (Also known as Mini American Shepherd) puppies with a goal to leave tails intact. This decision reflects our commitment to the well-being and individuality of our puppies. We value transparency and honor our commitments; therefore, we adhere to stud contracts that require tail docking. There are occasions where a puppy is born with a natural bobtail, as we do have that gene in our program. Additionally, if a puppy is born with a tail that is kinked or folded, we do have those docked for their safety and long-term wellbeing.
