     I just wanted you to know how much she has us wrapped around her little paw.

     Maddie is the best dog we have ever had. She is intelligent, playful, a good traveler, potty trained, cuddly. I am sure she has lowered our blood pressure 10 points.

     Before we had gotten down the drive at your house, she had crawled up onto my shoulders where she stretched out for an hour or so. She liked her bed - which is now her place of refuge. We stopped every hour or so and let her out to potty.

     We have taken a day trip to Little Rock and several trips to the grocery in town, and she goes in her carrier - no problem. She whines whenever she needs to go outside and has been remarkably lacking in accidents. What can I say. She is wonderful.

     At this moment she is sleeping on Frits' feet. She sleeps almost through the night with one quick time outside.

                                                                     An absolutely great experience

     Although somewhat reluctant, I decided to buy my mini aussie Gus from an internet seller. What an absolute great experience it turned into. Judy is a great lady and absolutely loves to talk about her "babies". She was never too busy to answer our questions and was always available. She was as nervous as we were on Gus' flight day. Our puppy arrived in perfect health, with a great disposition and personality. I strongly recommend Judy and Rocking2R aussies to anyone looking for a great addition to their family.    John and Sandy, NJ

So eager to please, so quick to catch on, he was a breeze to train!

We are so very impressed with Maverick!!!  I've grown up with dogs all my life.  We've had several different breeds from AKC Keeshonds, Labradors and mutts, big dogs to small dogs and we've loved them all.  But I've never seen any dog so smart, so easy to train and eager to please!  From the moment we got Maverick, he was constantly our shadow, following us loyally wherever we went.  So eager to please, so quick to catch on, he was a breeze to train!  So much so that when we went to sign him up for puppy training classes we ran into a problem.  By the time we waited to get his rabies shot, Maverick had already learned everything they were going to teach in the puppy class.  We asked to move up to the next level - the beginner class - and Maverick already knew all those tricks, too.  We finally signed up for private classes not because Maverick needed to be trained, but because I didn't know any more tricks to teach him!Before Maverick was 5 months old, he knew how to sit, lay down, shake, stay, reach up for a high five , bark, crawl, turn in circles (both clock wise and counter clock wise), beg, jump thru a hoop, retrieve, catch a frisbee most of the time - at least when I throw it correctly!  Maverick understands the words:  come, bye-bye, hungry, drink, walk, park, up, go stairs, night-night, kisses, ball, toy, find it, bring it, drop it, frisbee, find us (Maverick even plays 'hide and seek' - we hide and he finds us).  Maverick is learning to put his toys in the basket at night (we just show him which one to pick up), he is currently learning to play dead , bow, roll over and even say his prayers.  He is far and away the most amazing dog we've ever known!!!  Maverick even rings a bell to let us know he wants to go outside!!!!           

He is very affectionate - loves to be scratched behind the ears or have his belly rubbed!  He is just as eager to give you kisses!  He also loves to romp and play with our son - Maverick is very fast!!!!  He and our son chase each other, play tug of war and rough house often, but all we have to do is say "sweet" and instantly Maverick is gentle, loving and ready to snuggle.  As much as he loves to play, he is equally content to doze quietly at your feet or cuddle with you as you watch TV.  He blows us away! 

We recently had the privilege of puppy sitting for about a month till we could donate a dog to a guide dog program.  Quite a fun and rewarding experience, but one that gave us a crash course in the differences in breeders.   We purchased a different puppy at a charity auction and planned to donate her to a guide dog program; thought we were just doing a good deed.  We simply took that breeder's word about the quality and condition of the dogs.  Our initial donation became significantly more costly after we visited our vet.  We found out all too late the pup was pretty sick; bad case of worms, bladder infection and respiratory issues as well.  The 'breeder' had separated the litter from their mother after only 3 weeks, so the pup was not socialized at all.  The puppy was so bad we could not in good conscience donate it until we were sure she was fully recovered; healthy and would not bite anyone.  Thanks to his expert care and a few weeks of expensive medicine, our vet made sure she was completely healthy.  But she was still a bit unpredictable - licking you one minute, biting you the next.  Even though Maverick was only a puppy himself, we were astonished to see how he became both teacher and surrogate parent to this new little pup.  Within 3 weeks, Maverick had her well socialized - no more biting - much better manners and he had her ready to learn.  Maverick even taught the new pup to ring the bell - though to be honest, the new puppy didn't know why she was ringing it!!!!  Thanks to Maverick we were even able to teach the new puppy to sit and we were working on lay down before we were able to give her away.  To be totally fair, I had not done any research or background checks on that breeder at all.  We researched breeds and breeders for over a year before we bought Maverick.   Please know there is a big difference in quality of breeders.  We found out the hard way not everyone certifies their breeding stock for hip or eye problems.  Not everyone cares enough to provide high quality dog food - some actually use the generic dog food at the oversized discount stores.  Not all breeders take the time and effort to socialize their new puppies.  Some don't keep their whelping and/or elimination areas clean and disinfected.  Some don’t ever take their new litters to be checked out by a real vet - they just try to guess and treat the new pups themselves to save money. 

Please don't let just a cute cuddly face make all your decisions for you.  Puppies are cute, but you need to do the research to make sure your puppy will be a healthy, well socialized, quality member of your family for a long, long time!  When we bought the other pup, even my daughter noticed just because you don't spay and neuter your pets, does not make you a good breeder.  There is a difference!!!  Talk with the Reynolds, do some checking, see for yourself and you will find as we did, that Rocking 2R is far and away the best place to buy your new dogs!!!!  We did research before we bought Maverick and the difference in quality is night and day!!!!  We spent a bit more on him as a puppy, but less on him in medical bills!!!!!  The little extra money up front is more than worth it to know you have purchased a healthy, well bred, intelligent, well socialized, quality dog!!!  Ms. Judy and Mr. George take exceptional care of their dogs.  They love and pamper each dog and each of their puppies!!!!  Their dogs are certified for eyes and hips, they are breeding dogs not only for great looks, but for loving temperaments and high intelligence!  You get not only registration papers, but full pedigrees.  You also get years of experience - the Reynolds are always there if you have any questions or concerns.  More than getting a puppy, you are getting a new member of your family and you are also getting wonderful new friends!!!  Ms. Judy is very particular about her babies!!!!  There is a difference!  We will never buy another dog from anyone else other than Rocking 2R! 

We know you will be just as thrilled with your Rocking 2 R puppy as we are!

Blessings!

You can’t go wrong with one of Rocking 2R’s puppies!

Dear Prospective Rocking 2R Puppy Purchaser,

We purchased our Red Merle male (Foster) over two years ago from Judy at Rocking 2R. We couldn’t be more pleased with him and Judy’s decision to allow us to purchase him from her. We drove 1,710 miles roundtrip to get him. We would never allow a puppy to be shipped if at all possible. Consider yourself fortunate if Judy does allow you to purchase one of her puppies. She is very particular about who gets to adopt one of her puppies. Before we were allowed to purchase Foster I was very pleased to find out how deeply she cared about interviewing potential owners to make sure the puppies were going to get a good home.

This breed of dog requires a tremendous amount of energy on your part to properly exercise them. They love lots of outdoor running and playing. We take Foster to the forest preserves twice a day for his exercise. These dogs love the water and are great swimmers. They are loyal companions and protectors of your home. They are friendly but wary of strangers. They are great with kids and always will keep a watchful eye on them. They love to be trained and learn very quickly. We’ve put our dog through obedience training and several agility training programs. They love to perform and my gosh are they really fast. If you love dogs, they will give their love back to you may times over. They always want to please you and will be next to your side looking for a kind hand to pet them if they are not sleeping.

You can’t go wrong with one of Rocking 2R’s puppies. I just hope you are worthy enough to be selected to purchase one. We’ve purchased several breeds of dogs (Miniature Schnauzers and Shar Peis) over the past 25 years and always purchased them from private breeders like Rocking 2R. I can honestly say that I have never come across a breeder who cared more about where their puppies will spend the rest of their lives and how much they care for them even after they are sold. Whenever Judy and I talk, she always asks about Foster and how he’s doing. We send her pictures and give her an update about his life. We are now hooked on Miniature Australian Shepherds and would only purchase one from Rocking 2R when we decide to get another one of these fabulous dogs.

Take care of your Miniature Australian Shepherd,

Dear perspective Mini Aussie owner,

I first met Judy Reynolds in July 2003. We were looking for a special buddy for our deaf Blue merle, Skye.

We had lost our long time friend, Savvy, 3 months earlier. Skye was going through a severe depression. We knew we had to find her a new buddy. Even though she is deaf we were impressed at how smart he is in picking up sign language. (She was our 1st mini Aussie) We decided we needed to see just how smart a hearing mini Aussie might be. Somehow, I got Judy's name and called her. She interviewed me, (she is very dedicated in making sure her puppies go to good homes), then invited me to her ranch to see the 2, 5 month old male red merle's that she had. We took Skye with us, I wanted to make sure that whoever we chose would be compatible with her.

We ended up choosing our Chili because of the way he responded to Skye. From the first day it was as if he knew it was his "job" to look out for her. I never had to housebreak him. He will not beg at the table when you are eating. His is very protective of Skye and his family. Chili is highly intelligent and listens well, is easy to train, loves to play ball & Frisbee. His favorite activity is anything to do with water, he loves to swim!

If you are considering a mini Aussie I would highly recommend this breed. I would especially recommend getting your dog from Judy. How she handles her puppies from birth until you get them, is testament to how dedicated she is to producing a wonderful dog. Her dogs are well socialized and are extremely easy to handle & train. I cannot say enough good things about Judy & her "babies". By no means am I a mini Aussie expert, but we have 3 now and know there is no other breed of dog for us. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at Lauraca1212@valornet.com

I wish you much joy with your new puppy and hope that you will have as much pleasure & love from your puppy as Chili has given us.

I can’t wait to get another one!!
My dog, Jake, has been exposed to a lot of training since I got him from Judy last November. He has been to herding seminars, training classes, and much more over the last few months. Everyone we are around KNOWS AUSSIES and I get more compliments on how natural Jake looks and how unbelievable his mannerisms are. He’s not just smart, he blows my mind!!! This breed is known for high intellect, but he puts the other Aussies (standard and Mini) to shame. Each time I get compliments on my Mini-Aussie, I say, “Hey, it’s all in the breeding!” Thanks Judy, I couldn’t be happier with you and your professional and high class breeding of these angels!!
