Do Aussaliers Shed?

Yes, Aussaliers come from two breeds that are moderate shedders. The Australian Shepherd is a double coated breed that sheds out its undercoat twice a year. They do not shed very much in between then. The Cavalier is a moderate shedder with a silky coat that sheds year-round. A weekly brushing and a bath when needed are sufficient to keep them looking their best.  The aussalier is a mix between these two breeds and could have a coat with a range between the two breeds. While I do say "moderate" shedding, if you're looking to compare it to other breeds then I'd say they do not shed nearly as much as German Shepherds, Retrievers or Labs. The plus side to this is they require very little maintenance for grooming. They do not need to be professionally groomed every 4 weeks like poodles, or other non-shedding breeds. 

 

How big will my Aussalier be?

Our Mini Aussie females range from 12" to 16" and 10-25lbs and our Cavalier stud is 12" and 14lbs. Since this is a mixed breed, our Aussaliers can range in size from 11"-17". I like to describe their size as similar to a Cocker Spaniel.  Sizes often depend on the lineage of the Aussie mother, so if you are wanting a smaller pup let us know and we can direct you to a litter that will likely be closer to the size you are wanting. However, being a mixed breed we cannot guarantee the adult size of any puppy. 

 

*Disclaimer: Mini Aussie's were bred down from larger standard Aussies and now there are even Toy sized Aussie's. Our Females all range in sizes from 10-25lb and they all have different sizes in their lineage. The Aussalier is a 50/50 mixed breed, which means that their genetic makeup is not as consistent as a pure breed dog. They can have a range of traits from either mostly Aussie or mostly Cavalier (including, size, color, temperament, and coat) 

I can only estimate what your puppy will be like by observing the puppy and making my best judgment based on the temperaments of the parents and the data that I've collected about previous puppies.

This is a short list of what goes into the price of a well-raised puppy.

 

Our Aussalier puppies range in price from $1,800 to $2,500 depending on color & gender. They come from show quality, extensively health tested parents with exceptional temperaments. They go home with a Health Guarantee, up to date on vaccinations and wormer. Vet checked healthy. A Puppy Pack with LOTS of goodies!

Do you ship?

We prefer that you come pick up your puppy in person so we can meet you and you can meet the dogs but we know that's not always possible.  Please let me know if you will be needing shipping services and we can arrange to meet you with your puppy at your nearest major airport, in person. That service costs $600. 

 

When can I pick up my puppy?

Puppies can be picked up no earlier than 8 weeks old. Puppies need a minimum of 8 weeks of time with their litter mates to learn crucial play and bite inhibition.  We can also hold your puppy for you past 8 weeks if needed. 

​

What food should I get?

We feed our Puppies  NutriSource Small & Medium Breed Puppy food.  This is a great high protein, high nutrient food for our growing puppies and for our pregnant/breeding adults. You can get this food at your local menards store  Here  

 

What should you avoid with your new puppy? 

We know that getting a new puppy is very exciting and often the first thing you want to do is take your puppy to the pet store to buy it things or take it to public places. Please refrain from doing this until your puppy has had all of its vaccinations and has a chance to settle into its new home. You don't want to expose your new little pup to all the various diseases that can be deadly to a puppy with a not yet fully developed immune system. Puppies are very susceptible to viruses and diseases and we as the breeder cannot be held liable for any illness that your pup picked up after leaving our care.  

 

Is there anything I can do to help strengthen my pups immune system?

Yes! There is something you can do to put your puppy on a fast track to having a strong and healthy immune system. All of our dogs at Royal Crown Kennels are on a daily dose of NuVet Vitamins.  Visit our info page about NuVet Vitamins
