***It has come to our attention at Fortis Australian Shepherds that there has been a number of unauthorized uses of our photographs, written material, as well as false links/sites that have copied our website (and added )to our address. Fortis Australian Shepherds website is as follows; fortis aussies (dot) com. If it doesn't say that in the address bar, it is NOT Fortis Australian Shepherds!
Furthermore, Fortis Australian Shepherds will NOT sell a puppy sight unseen, what does this mean? We will NOT require nor request that a potential buyer send money in order to have a puppy shipped next day (or similar)
We will NOT sell a puppy without FIRST meeting the potential home/buyers/family. Puppies are NEVER sold without us first approving (meeting) the potential new owners-in person. If someone claims to be Fortis Australian Shepherds informs you otherwise, I would ask that you inform us so that we may investigate further.
Phone Numbers have been temporarily removed due to new puppy selling *tactics that are currently under investigation. We at Fortis Australian Shepherds invite you to perform due diligence when researching your next puppy, and to NOT send funds unless full confidence in breeder of choice.
Reputable breeders will NOT hard sell a buyer into buying a puppy, nor will they require full funds immediately sent, with little to no discussion and without a detailed contract in place (just a few hints)
We have our own requirements when we place puppies.
Thank you, Fortis Australian Shepherds.
We have been receiving a large volume of inquiries daily, your patience is appreciated as we take our time to review & respond to each one.
Questionnaires not fully filled out (part 1 & 2 ), will not be responded to (each must be submitted individually otherwise only the page you 'hit send' on is submitted)
Thank you very much for your understanding, Fortis Australian Shepherds.
