I have a mini Aussie and have had him since 12 weeks. Invest in toys, learn to groom dogs, and don’t get them fixed till the two year mark once fixed they gain weight easily.
the breeder i got my mini from told me 6 months and i signed a paper that says it... but of course once we got the dog the vet said 2 years as well and i gave the vet the breeders phone number..lol he can fight with her.. i ain't in it lol
I have been trying to convince my parents to let me get a mini Australian shepherd that I found for sale… I have two dogs of my own currently. Does anyone know if this breed gets along with other dogs?
my mini was the runt he was smaller then the others he’s so picking and doesn’t eat his food when think he should i heard him say add fruit or chicken to his food what kind of fruit … hes always playing with me and my kids he’s spoiled lol
What they are describing in the video is actually the Miniature American Shepherd, officially recognized by the AKC and the CKC. They are frequently and incorrectly called the Miniature Australian Shepherd. There is no such breed, but are called mini Aussies because of their looks. Either way, the Miniature American Shepherd is almost as gorgeous as the true Australian Shepherd (I'm biased though)
The miniature Australian Shepherd (registered by the ASDR) predates anything "registered" by the AKC, so your saying they are NOT official is bogus and a direct result of the AKC trying to take over all breeds like they owned all of dog-dom! They don't and those of us who love our breed demand they keep their foul standards from ruining our intelligent working dogs like they ruined cocker spaniels and German shepherds.
@@rustythecat2163Not quite. The Miniature American Shepard is smaller than a Australian Shepard, plus was bred in USA. Also, their smaller size should cause them to wear out and become tired than a full size Australian Shepard would (not that they lack for energy, to be sure) There is a reason for the named differences between the breeds, please don’t just say ‘one and the same’ again. There are important differences.
This info deviates from the REAL Australian Shepherd Dog Registry and should not be regarded as an authentic description of the breed. ASDR has no weight restrictions. Height is between 14 and 17 inches at the shoulder for the minis. Standards are 17 and over, with toys under 13. Aussies need at least 1.5 to 2 hours of exercise daily, and are happiest when they get 3 to 4 or more hours at a jog a couple days a week. That said, don’t begin agility until they are 2 years old because the bones of the legs need to completely mature. Injuries get expensive and finding ways to keep them exercised is near impossible. Eyes range from brown to speckled to blue and some lovely shades of amber, green and even sky blue.
Don’t do a puppy mill. If for no ethical reasons, Puppy Mills are notorious for selling sick and ill puppies first, so you’ll be stuck with far more medical bills than an average puppy.
Mini Aussies are NOT low shedders. But they seem to shed in clumps, making it easier to keep hair off of everything.

Kudos for the no neuter until two!

Love our mini aussie, she is beautiful 😍
Picking my mini puppy up today! Can't wait
Great
Errors in describing the breed, colors, physical needs and level of required excercise.
Low shedders. I could have made a sweater just this week.
i could have made a quilt by now from a full size aussie and the mini combined (mini is 12 weeks /full size aussie is almost 2)
Love my mini Aussie 💓
Very interested
Love the 🐕 🛷 🐶 🦮 🐕🦺 🐩
I have been trying to convince my parents to let me get a mini Australian shepherd that I found for sale… I have two dogs of my own currently. Does anyone know if this breed gets along with other dogs?
Yes its very comfortable and good with dogs & is a great companion of other breeds
Yes, but they don't necessarily like to share your time.
my mini was the runt he was smaller then the others he’s so picking and doesn’t eat his food when think he should i heard him say add fruit or chicken to his food what kind of fruit … hes always playing with me and my kids he’s spoiled lol

My mini aussie never hardly ever shed.
My pagka hawig sa border collie
Two incorrect statements. They shed a lot and their eyes have the same colors as regular size Aussies.
Not for old people. Tripping hazard.
Low shaders lmao I love him but not true
Low shedders 😂😂😂
This is some ai written crap. Internet is like wading through trash to find something useful nowadays.
Another AI generated vid 🥱
I can't afford to get one. $700-$3,000. People are greedy, so I'm looking for backward puppy mills.
