Not everyone stays in touch with me and sends pictures or I would have a lot more on here to share so you can see how they mature and grow with their families.

Hi Lana
Wanted to thank you not only for the to amazing dogs we purchased (Frankie and Gambler) but more importantly for all of your advice after our purchase! You’ve been amazing throughout this buying of our first mini-Assisi. Answering tons of questions, and just making yourself available for your knowledge on your pups. Your client service is truly world class and their should be no doubt that if or rather when we are ready for another beautiful pup Halfpints is where we will get that pup. Thanks again Larry Cockrell |

Gunner aka Tux
Hi Lana, The brown is really coming in on his cheeks. He is a beautiful puppy. My wife and I love him like he is our child. I'm so thankful that tri colored brown eyed male is not as popular as a blue merle. There was something about him when I first saw his pictures, I can't explain it. But I had a feeling and I knew he was the one. I was right. He can be so very sweet, affectionate and cuddly. He loves going on little walks outside and is already becoming quite the little guard dog. He's very sharp, often driven. He loves playing with his brother and antagonizes him whenever he can. He has taken the dominant role even though he is much smaller. Ornery as hell, but so damn cute. I look forward to coming home after work because the greeting I get melts my heart. he sits, and shakes, lays down and kinda plays dead. Thank you, Brent Fields |

Yogi
It was very nice meeting you as well! We are so excited to welcome Yogi into our home, thank you for allowing us the opportunity! The picture they took at the Vet of him is super cute, I thought you would enjoy. I tried to get a picture of him with his thanksgiving collar on for a little bit but he kept moving, typical Aussie lol. Things are going really well! Yogi just had his 12 week vaccines yesterday, is doing amazing with potty training (the jingle bells on doors really helped), and he has mastered sitting on command - now on to lay down & stay. Thank you, Brianna Thompson |

Huck aka Arrow
Hi Lana While driving up to pick up the puppy yesterday we were kicking around names. The name Huckleberry came to Susan, seems to fit with Finn. Huck and Finn Huckleberry Finn. He is doing really well. Yes he eats like a horse. Going to the bathroom just fine, stools are formed, no diareha so far. He is really spunky today, wants to play and follows us around. He and Finn are getting along really well. They are getting to be buddies pretty quick. We are both tired, he did well last night for his first night here. He would wake up and cry a bit, Susan had his crate next to the bed and was able to talk to him and touch him and he settled back down. Nothing a nap won't fix. All in all we are thrilled to have him here, he is making a difference in world. I attached a few images for you to look at in this email and have posted them in Facebook also. Take Care Ed and Susan Kendall |

Hi Lana and happy holidays! I hope all your pups are doing well and I wanted to share an update on Mel. First of all, Mel is the most popular puppy on any street. He loves people (maybe a little too much!) and can make friends with any dog too! He is so handsome and only getting better looking as he grows. He is shaping up to be the absolute perfect compact size. He’s currently 4.5 months old and 13 lbs. He’s small with a big personality, and is overall pretty fearless. We made sure to start training him from day 1, and it really shows. He has the best temperament, people are always impressed that he is so young. He doesn’t bark at anything, other than when he wants my attention 😂 He has tons of energy but is also able to turn it off and cuddle with us in bed, on the couch or wherever we are. He has loved his crate since day 1 so we have had major success crate training. He loves to be close to us all the time, but we were able to leave him with a sitter for four days and he had no problems at all. He brings me and my boyfriend so much happiness I don’t know what I’d do without him! Please feel free to use me as a reference for any future puppy buyers. You raise beautiful, smart, well rounded puppies (did I mention beautiful?) Thanks so much for everything. Attached are some recent photos of Mel! Carre Orenstein |

Banquo aka River
Hi Lana! Happy Thanksgiving! We are so grateful to have Banquo as part of our family. He is handsome, smart, silly (but very obedient!) and a great friend for our boys! Thank you for all you do to raise such amazing pups! The vet loves him - great personality and easy to work with, and he really is a beautiful boy! Again, we are so grateful. He is exactly what we were hoping for! He is the happiest boy! Oh, and weighing in at 22lbs just before his 8 month birthday! Take care, Jessica Montgomery |

Hi Lana,
An update on our second Half Pint mini Aussie!! Maggie has been a true delight and it was the best decision to get a second Aussie! She is an amazing dog. She is 8 months now and gets along so well with Jessie. They are a dynamic duo. She has the best temperament!! So sweet but with enough sass to make life fun. She also passed her puppy class with flying colors. She loves playing ball each evening with Jessie in our backyard and enjoys just spending time with us each day. Thank you for guidance on getting our second Half Pint Aussie!! It has been a smooth and seamless transition from a one to two dog household! Oh by the way, she absolutely loves the cats and gets so excited when she sees them coming around the corner or hanging out on the couch :) So much fun! Best Regards, Lezlie and Jimmy Duckett |

Hi Lana,
Just wanted to tell you how our sweet Jessie is doing! He is almost one year old now and we are so pleased with him. Such a smart boy- always curious, learns so quickly, and loves his food puzzles!! He did super well in his puppy class this year and passed immediately. He quickly took to bell training to go outside as a small puppy and now even rings the bell if he notices one of our cats wanting to come in house!! We are just so blessed to have him. He loves just spending time with us and we love having him. Thank you for your advice and help with him throughout the process of getting our first mini Aussie! Best Regards, Lezlie and James Duckett |

Hi Lana-
Parker had us the first moment we saw him. It seems that everyday we all bond more. He loves to have fun and has such a wonderful sweet spirit. He has really become our little best friend and wants to go everywhere we go. Parker has been a special addition to our family and we can't thank you enough for making sure you saved him for us.

We always wanted an Aussie, so when we started searching for local breeders, we found Halfpint Mini Aussies. We had no idea that this breed came in smaller sizes. We reached out to Lana and our wonderful journey began. Lana is extremely knowledgeable about this breed. She puts her heart and soul into every one of her dogs. Because of her love, passion and controlled approach to breeding, Lana produces some of the best dogs you’ll ever have. After meeting Lana, Kiah and Magnum we knew we had to be a part of this family. Thank you Lana for giving us TWO of the best doggies we could ever have hoped for. We are grateful for all of your support & guidance, and for allowing us to be a part of your extended family. You are truly a wonderful soul and it is our honor to know you. Gigi and Coco are loving, sweet little dogs. They are the most solid-healthy, happy, playful and smartest dogs we’ve ever had. All thanks to great/responsible breeding and love too. Thanks again Lana for everything…xoxox…J Mike & Luana Penzabene |

Lana, Thank you again!!! All is well here in the Robles house! We are all so happy and she will be so loved!! Kids are doing amazing with her! Marlee can sit, lay down, wait, come, leave it, drop it and we are currently loose leash training her 😁- she is very smart and so eager to learn! She is potty trained and kennel trained... but we don't leave her in her kennel, we have a doggy door that can freely come in and out... she is such a sweet puppy! Yes she is part of the family! My kids call her their sister ❤️ She weighs 16.5lbs now... she weighs |
