    Future Aussie parents ☺️

    I just wanted to say some things if you were on the fence and thinking about choosing Sam as your breeder. Firstly, she has been amazing throughout the entire process! From updates about your pup, to clear communication about her experience, and what to expect!!! If you’re looking into an Aussie for a pet, then I would assume you already know, they are a high energy breed. With that being said, I truly commend her on not only the temperament, but the structure of her puppies. I was lucky enough to get a Stella and Ollie pup, and he is wonderful. He is so awesome with my 6 year old. I’m not saying you’re going to get a perfect puppy and it’s not going to be work. You get what you put into it. They are a smart and curious. What you will 100% get, is a perfect head start into your journey. I couldn’t be more grateful to be apart of the E & C family and working with Sam has been an absolute pleasure!

    Samantha at E&C Australian Shepherds made the process of getting our puppy Ollie so enjoyable and stress-free. She was always willing to answer our many questions and is incredibly knowledgeable about the breed. We loved getting photos of the puppies and personality updates during their first 8 weeks. Ollie is such a friendly, playful, and smart puppy, and we couldn’t be happier! We would recommend Samantha to anyone looking for an Australian Shepherd.

    Samantha was very quick to respond, she was more then happy to answer any questions I had. Very happy with my new puppy and having the pleasure to meet Samantha!

  • Rick

    My name is Richard Lacey. I became the  puppy parent of the most beautiful little girl Aussie, who I named Trixie on Nov.28 2024. E&C Aussie Shepherds, and Samantha in particular could not have made the experience anymore wonderful. She answered questions about my pup that I didn't even know to ask. Any concerns I might have had disappeared when I saw the awesome home environment this pup was raised in. Sam and I have kept in touch over the last year, and now I not only have an amazing little pup, but I feel like I have new friend in Samantha. Anyone looking to bring a new little fur baby into their life should only call E&C AUSSIE SHEPHERDS. Samantha ACTUALLY  CARES about her babies, and the folks that bring them into their lives.

    Samantha Butler is so easy to talk to and is more than willing to answer any questions we have had throughout the process of getting a puppy from her. Even now, almost 9 months later, it’s so easy to reach out to her and ask questions if I’m not sure about something or want her opinion on things. My puppy (Teka) was extremely well cared for at Sam’s home and is such a sweet dog. 💜 We would love to get another puppy from her in the future, that’s how much we love her!🥹💗

  • Lauren & Russell

    My family had a new german shepherd puppy when we found our Loki. Samantha supported us bringing the puppy to meet Loki before taking the dive into a two puppy world! She has been there to answer my questions and support us with our first aussie. Today, Loki is my best friend! I couldn't imagine waking up without him insisting on morning snuggles.

    And to speak toward the breed itself, my Aussie is much easier than my German Shepherd. They are both active, but Loki is less destructive.

    I often think how lucky I was to connect with Samantha Butler when I was ready to get my puppy. She is really passionate about her program and about breeding really great dogs. I get so many compliments about my smart, sweet little girl and I am grateful that Samantha also put the time in to be sure her dogs are super healthy too… 8 months later and it shows. She is a beautiful girl. I also appreciated being able to reach out and ask silly new mom questions and never felt like I was a bother. Always felt reassured. Thank you Sam. 💕

    Lottie is loving Colorado life, especially now that we’re headed into spring and have been able to start hiking! I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful Samantha Butler was with her development early on! When Lottie arrived home, she was so well socialized/desensitized for her age. To this day she’s one of the few dogs I know who will sleep while I vacuum around her 😂 Samantha’s program is very well set up and you can absolutely tell how much heart goes into these pups!
