FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers to your questions
Here we have compiled answers to the most common questions asked by our clients and future owners about Australian Shepherds, our kennel, grooming services, and handmade accessories.
Is an Australian Shepherd suitable for living in an apartment?
Yes, an Australian Shepherd can live in an apartment, but with one very important condition – it needs sufficient physical and mental stimulation outdoors. This is a very active breed, so short walks won't be enough.
How does puppy reservation work in your kennel?
It is very important to us what kind of homes our puppies go to. First, we invite you to chat – over a call or in person. We talk about the specifics of the breed, listen to your expectations, and assess whether an Australian Shepherd is truly right for you.
Do Australian Shepherds shed a lot?
Yes, Australian Shepherds have a double coat that requires regular maintenance. The main shedding occurs twice a year (in spring and autumn). During that time, the dog needs to be brushed more often. However, regular bathing and proper undercoat blowouts (which we professionally do in our dog SPA) reduce shedding at home to a minimum.
Does your grooming salon accept other dog breeds?
Yes! Although our greatest love and specialty is Australian Shepherds and other double-coated dogs, our SPA happily welcomes all four-legged friends. We perform hygienic trimming, bathing, undercoat brushing.
What are 'Seaside Aussie' collars and leashes made of?
All 'Seaside Aussie' products are handmade from highly durable Paracord rope. This material is used in parachute manufacturing, so it can withstand extreme tension. Moreover, it doesn't absorb moisture, dries quickly, and is easy to wash.
Do you ship accessories to other cities or abroad?
Yes, we ship our handmade collars and leashes via parcel lockers throughout Lithuania, and if needed, to other countries around the world. It is most convenient to arrange orders via a private message on our 'Seaside Aussie' Facebook page.
