OMG, Australian Shepherd puppies are so incredibly cute and unbelievably smart! They can learn to "shake," "spin," "go down," and "roll over" as well as all sorts of other tricks on literally day one when you pick them up at 8 to 10 weeks. I had a Blue Merle Miniature Australian Shepherd with two different colored eyes who was the most beautiful and smartest dog I have ever met. I now have a Black Tri Mini just because my other MIni was so gorgeous that I didn't think any other Blue Merle would ever measure up looks wise. Regardless of the coat pattern, they are the best dogs ever.
Amazing! We have adopted a Red Merle who's now 12 weeks old. we've had him 15 days (since Easter) and they're so smart. Trying to keep him from eating/chewing everything in sight has been a challenge but he's the most affectionate dog I've ever met. Congrats on Helix, he is so adorable and I can't wait to see more.
My 10 month old mini Aussie Kai, is just like your beautiful pup! My profile picture is him and his big brother. Loving, faithful companion, intelligent, but sooooo active! He’s wonderful
he was so careful going down the steps at 8 wks, as soon as my aussie figured them out she started launching herself halfway at a time ^^; looks more like she's sledding down then.. well walking haha
Im getting my 8wk mini aussie next week and im so freakin’ excited! I would love to hear from you how did you train him so well?! He’s soooo adorable and very smart!
Oh Helix is beautiful. We adopted Lacy, a Mini-Aussie, along with a Sheltie, from a local rescue last year. Lacy is now 2 years old and is such a happy, sweet girl. New friend. Rang your bell.
i have to say these dogs omg!...so we bought a red tri back in november and he was the runt of the litter..we decided to name him blue!..lol well this guy has grown but he is only 3 months old at that and he is the most loving sweetest except for when he wants to play that includes soft biting and nipping but he still a pup and it was so easy to potty train him compared to other dogs weve had!...he is an american shepherd so he is minature but the best addition to our familly!....i think from now on its golden retreivers labs and aussie shpherds from now on!!! enjoy this little guy he is adorable!...its amazing to watch them grow into big strong beautiful animals!!!
Congrats! As far as training goes, I just watch a lot of positive reinforcement videos on TH-cam. Day in the life with a new puppy with dog trainers are very helpful too. TH-cam is definitely my answer 😂
Helix is almost 3 now wow time flies. He’s still really energetic at times but have definitely mellowed out. He is a home body but will have energy in the morning and evening for a long walk and/or fetch time. When the weather is nice I def take advantage of longer walks/fetch but when its not as nice we just go for a walk and play toys inside. He uses a sniffle mat and slow feeder for meals too.
@@WinnieK97 I’m glad to hear overtime they can mellow out. That’s great! Do you feel this breed can live happily in an apartment with daily walks and indoor playtime?
@@markeisharobinson6437 I totally think so! But at the end of the day every dog is different but with daily long walks/fetch, indoor play, sniffle mat, puzzles, games I think it’s totally doable.
He's actually a Miniature American Shepherd, people frequently call them Miniature Australian Shepherds because of how they look but the AKC and CKC don't recognize them as mini Australian Shepherds. Gorgeous either way 😊
Although bred in California from smaller Australian Shepherd forbears, AKC and CKC decided they needed a more distinctive name. They were originally bred to work rodeos (small size made trailer / motel travel much easier. These are fantastic dogs!
my dog looks exactly like this but hes a pomchi. hes 6 years old about the size of ur 12 week aussie. i need to get a dna test because i totally feel like hes got some aussie.
I came to see your dog who is absolutely adorable and I am kind of researching mini Aussies because I may get one in the future, but.......I noticed your cat.......who is an absolute duplicate of my rescue cat Buster. I don't know what breed Buster is but he has the really fine facial features and ears like your cat and streamlined sleek body, tapered tail, small feet but very strong, great balance, climbs everything and even though he is smaller than them, our neighbor cats don't dare fight him because he is an amazing acrobat and he scares them away. He has a personality of a Bengal but he is too small. Oh yeah, he is an absolute lover, loves to snuggle, pat and kiss his humans. You dont have to answer this but if you do, can you tell me the breed your cat is? I really should get a dna test but it's just one of those things I never get around to.
I have a 16 week old mini aussie, she’s smart and easy to train but I have to break up mini milkbones into 3 pieces and it still takes her a while to eat each treat. What are you using as treats that don’t take your dog minutes to finish?
Andy Warner Mini aussies are definitely very smart! Helix is soooo food motivated so I just use his kibble for most training “treats”. Boiled chicken is also good for training :)
Winsical Moments I’ve had 2 Border Collies before Molly and they were very smart and athletic, but Molly seems even smarter. I went through Sit, Shake, Lay Down, Up, Walk, and Roll Over in a half hour with her doing it all about 3 times each. I guess repetition would help, so I’ll practice with her every day, but because she’s so smart I’m thinking of more challenging tricks like having her jump onto my feet while I’m on my back with feet up or jumping onto my back while I’m on my knees. I feel like I could easily teach her anything I can dream up. Are Mini Aussies smarter than Border Collies?
Andy Warner Oh my that is very impressive especially at that age! From studies it seems like Border Collies are the “smartest breed” but I think any dog can be a smart dog (to a certain extent lol) with a good trainer so good job on that 😊
Hi, can you let us know which resources/what you followed to train your Aussie so we'll, that too under 3 months? I'm getting my Red tri color aussie pretty soon and this info will be really helpful :) Thanks
Yesss in the beginning he was super mouthy and bites when hes tired which was like every hour lmao. Not so much tantrums but more like pushing his limits to see what he can get away with but it does it better with time! He’s a different pup by like 4 months and then again at around 1 year.
What size collar did you get for when you brought helix home and the length of the leash? Also size of the harness. I’m going to be getting my mini Aussie soon in the next couple weeks and I don’t know what size to get lol
AnneNicole I got a 6 feet leash. I got size smalls for his collar & harness (from Amazon) that ended up being kinda big on him. However I wasn’t doing intense walks with him in the beginning so it didn’t matter too much.
Aussies are super smart so it didn’t take that long for us. Just be patient and consistent and I’m sure it’ll just click for your doggo :) at a young age, I did like 5-10 min of positive reinforcement training twice a day.
@@WinnieK97 Thanks for the super quick reply. I’ll be able to take my new Aussiedoodle mini puppy home soon. He’s 4lbs at 6 weeks old. I’m hoping he’ll mature to a similar size to your beautiful baby. Thanks for sharing your journey. I Hope you’ll continue posting videos, he’s delightful!
Its probably just due to them adjusting to your household! Id give it time and give them lots of exposure to day to day things so they are less likely to become reactive.
@@WinnieK97 also must I ask. Why does she get so scared when I stand up. Or anyone stands up? When you sit down she comes right to you. It's probably being new here and us being so much bigger than her.
Larry Roberson It’s seems like most breeders tend to dock off aussie puppies when they’re just born. But some are born without it too I believe it just depends.
He has a huge spectrum! Rn it’s winter so we do less activity overall and he seems to do fine. However when we do go to the dog park for example he runs around like crazy 😂😂
Helix is so cute and adorable. However, sometimes you too many commands in quick succession without rewarding him for eg from sit to down to another command ( I can’t remember) and you gave him a strap/ stick but didn’t release it so he didn’t get rewarded for obeying a command. You let him lick it and gave another command and a third command, making him look a little puzzled. Fortunately he is a little trooper and he went on to attempt and obey your command. This is actually confusing for a dog and a more timid dog may get upset, confused and give up. This is also why your leave it command failed towards the end of the video. You said “so close” and quickly asked him to look at you. It’s not Helix’s fault. You asked him to sit ( no reward) and then quickly changed it into a lie down ( no reward) and then you started placing the treats on his paw and said “leave it”. It would have been good to reward him at least after the down command if you didn’t want to reward the sit command. So reward after lie down, then say leave it and place treats on his paw, then give him a treat while the ones on his paw remains and say good leave it and reward again. I would probably reward after the good leave it in the early stages and phase it out after he’s gotten used to the command and just use a happy high tone “ good leave it” as his praise/ reward. Your tone was too high and pitchy and too fast, too many commands in close succession …but I’m sure he’s learnt the commands by now. Hope you don’t mind the feedback. It’s good to take note in case you have a very sensitive and timid dog in the future. Also I feel very sad to see him caged up so many times. Not sure if you are doing this to toilet train. Yes there are some people who will say that crating is ok and dogs feel safe in their den. If he was my dog, I would have him in my bed. Their life with us is never long enough so take every moment to cuddle with them. I love the part of the video where he was on his back and smiling. That was just too adorable and so very cute.
Dog dad for Helix here. We let him in the bed nearly all day every day and he loves it :P he has mastered these commands and a few new ones since these videos were posted! Winnie really did an amazing job with him. Thanks for your perspective and thanks for viewing!
I really don't get why people feel the need to train their dogs like circus animals doing tricks and sh&t. What is the purpose?? Let the dog live a happy life and give them love. The only person impressed in the owner because an animal actually "learned" something because of them. I think it's sickening to treat poor animals like this unless you are going to put them into a circus. All of my dogs are exceptionally smart including my 10 week old mini Aussie. He's already house broken and only had him for 4 days. Love breaks all barriers, just show them what to do they understand more than you know. Another thing, I would never cage up my dog, that's cruel as well. Helix looks healthy and happy that's a good thing, but my fur babies would never have to be treated like a damn slave in their house doing tricks and shit lol.
I personally disagree. Training a dog is very important for their mental health and promotes engagement between them and their owner. Tricks themselves may not be the most important thing ever but they help aid into the dogs listening skills and overall discipline. A dog crate (if done right) is a very helpful safe space for dogs to go to when they’re stressed, sleepy etc. I personally only use the crate sparingly now as he’s house broken but those first few months can be helpful esp since their bladder is so small. I’m glad your new Aussie is doing great, however and I hope the best for you! ☺️ thanks for watching!
@@WinnieK97 Thank you and the best for you as well. Everyone that knows me calls me the "dog whisperer". The secret is understanding your dog and their needs. Love plays a big part of any relationship. Anyone living in my home has full access to use every part of my house including my dogs. I don't know how to "train" people or dogs. My dog's vocabulary are expansive from just listening to me. My 5 yr old dog tells me when he wants to go out, when he's hungry, he even says " Out" when asking to go outside. I didn't train him to do this. I hurts my heart how people think by making them run in circles massages their intellect. I do things like ask them which toy they want to play and they either point at it or go get it. I just could never treat a harmless poor fur baby like that , but Helix seems very happy you are obviously doing something right. Have a very Merry Christmas!
Do you think it could potentially be a short bob tail? Or is it a 100% docked? I read that mini Aussies can naturally have short bob tails too? If the tail was docked though.. that’s awful.

I’d not buy a pup from any “breeder” who’d let a pup go before a minimum of 8 weeks. It’s not in the best interests of the pup.
Is their fur silky?

Hey! I watched mainly Zak George and McCann dog training. Both great resources here on YT.
Also Frankie to the moon has a couple of videos and talks about in his older videos how he trained his dog

What would have been your second choice for the breed ?
Hmm I would love a corgi or a spaniel! But honestly all doggos matter so I would want them all if I can 😂
@@WinnieK97 I have a French Bulldog and I would of picked a corgi too as one of my second choices. They are all just so cute and adorable

Why is mine so skiddish and easily scared and not playful. It's not the breeders doing. Is it something to do with female mini aussies?
Its probably just due to them adjusting to your household! Id give it time and give them lots of exposure to day to day things so they are less likely to become reactive.

Hi
Hi I want to know where do I find that kind puppy?? I am hard of hearing and I live in Berrien Springs, Michigan.
I do not understand this obsession with docking trails on dogs that are strictly companion dogs.
Do you think it could potentially be a short bob tail? Or is it a 100% docked? I read that mini Aussies can naturally have short bob tails too? If the tail was docked though.. that’s awful.
Do not ever train your dog with food !
