Reviews from some Lil’ Wonders puppy families. You can find more on our Facebook page: Lil’ Wonders Mini Aussies - Miniature American Shepherds. Thank you to all our wonderful Lil’ Wonders families!

My son and I were so very lucky to take a Lil Wonders Mini Aussie home. We have been so happy and enamoured with the new member of our family, Charlie! At 11 weeks old now, Charlie is very easy and eager to train. He is sleeping through the night and is entirely potty trained. He loves to get out for walks to check out local parks and explore his world. I can tell already he is an active, outdoors loving dog that will enjoy being with me on hikes and out in the wilderness. Today at Mt Doug he was swarmed by a group of 3 and 4 year olds who were so excited to pet and love him. He was very gentle and patient, almost like he knew they were little ones, and SO appreciative of the attention.

Melissa at Lil Wonders has done a beautiful job of breeding and raising her Mini Aussie puppies. We received many timely updates over the first 8 weeks of their life, hearing all about how the puppies were doing, how she was preparing them for their forever homes and some very cute photos. We were treated very fairly, the contract and expectations are clear, the selection process is transparent and Melissa does a fantastic job of ensuring you have all the information you need before and after you take your puppy home.

I would highly recommend Lil’ Wonders to anyone who wants to bring a Mini Aussie into their family.

Melissa is absolutely incredible, so knowledgeable and devoted to her dogs and puppies. We found all her advice, tips and recommendations so helpful and wise. Our puppy is so well socialized, 99% potty trained and soooooo sweet! We would highly recommend Lil’ Wonders!!

Melissa and her Lil Wonders are quite simply amazing. Melissa is fantastic to deal with and the puppies are perfection. Our little girl is beautiful, confident, smart and dare I jinx it, totally potty trained at 8 weeks! Melissa remains on hand for our ‘new parent’ questions and we couldn’t be happier. Couldn’t recommend Melissa more!

We are very happy with our puppy. She has adapted to her new home quickly, due to Melissa’s effort in laying a solid groundwork. Gypsy was well advanced in potty training, crate training, and socialization when we got her. She was quick to accept her new home and family and is friendly with everyone she meets. The world is big, exciting and full of adventures. Gypsy is up to the challenge thanks to the many experiences Melissa presented. Melissa cares for her puppies and does a stellar job preparing them for their new homes, in the 8 weeks she has them.

Amazing and loving lil pups. Healthy and strong and so so beautiful. Our Sophie is just over a year and is spunky so smart and gorgeous. She actually stops traffic, people pull over to compliment our girl and ask about where she came from. Melissa is a dedicated and caring breeder. Hers is a labor of love. Fabulous experience.

Melissa is wonderful. So friendly and helpful and so happy to answer questions about her dogs and the breed. And wow, her dogs are magnificent! I met them by chance while out shopping and was one of about 9 people crowding around them. They are just the most beautiful dogs you can imagine! I can't wait to own one of her puppies someday! Now that I've seen and met her dogs, I won't go anywhere else!

HIGHLY recommend. Melissa is both professional and warm, and it's immediately obvious that the puppies have been well loved, socialized, and stimulated. She answered all of our questions at the time, and even a few by email after we brought our pup home. I literally have nothing but good things to say. If you're looking for a smart, sweet, carefully bred and raised mini Aussie on Vancouver Island, Lil' Wonders should be first on your list.

Melissa was awesome and very knowledgeable! Our little aussie is beautiful and I could tell it was grown up in a great environment. Would highly recommend messaging Melissa if you're looking into an aussie!

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Melissa in person. She provided lots of great insight to us about puppy personalities and helped us choose a wonderful addition to our family. It was obvious that these puppies are loved and cared for beautifully. I would recommend them - absolutely!

It was a wonderful experience. Melissa is super knowledgeable. The puppies are well cared for and you can see the love she has for each and every puppy. Melissa is very professional and interacted with us in such a way that we felt like she welcomed us into her dog family. She was prompt to answer any and all questions we had and made it easy to understand. I’m super happy to say we now have a perfect fur baby in our home. Thanks Melissa for everything.

Our perfect little Embree Rosalind Evans We chose to keep the original name as the middle name so that we will always remember her roots.

Such beautiful pups with a great personality! We absolutely love our mini from Lil’ Wonders. She is so smart and well socialized we get people asking about her everywhere we go! We also have an agility star on our hands now.... Highly recommend one of these gorgeous pups to anyone who wants a fun and loyal best friend!
