Dog breeds: Miniature Australian Shepherds

Back to list of breeds

The Miniature Australian Shepherd, aka Mini Aussie, is a well-balanced dog standing a preferred height of 14-18 inches tall. They are attentive and animated, showing strength and stamina combined with unusual agility. They exist in a variety of colors that are strong, clear and rich. Commonly recognized colors are blue merle, red (liver) merle, solid black and solid red (liver) and with or without white markings and/or tan (copper) points with no order of preference. They are intelligent, primarily a working dog of strong herding and guardian instincts. Though the Mini Aussie stays true to natural herding instincts, they are indeed an exceptional companion. Along with their abilities, the "mini" size makes them an ideal traveling companion both on foot or in your car. They are versatile and easily trained, performing assigned tasks with great style and enthusiasm.
