My first impression of the Miniature Australian Shepherd was when my daughter brought home a colorful ball of fur with stunning blue eyes. Come to find out that ball of fur was a Mini Australian Shepherd. The color of j is called a blue merle with eyes to die for. But that was just the beginning. As I watched her grow, I found she was smart as a whip and very loyal. Everything she did was from her heart, her goal was to please. She grew up to be very active, she loves to work the horses, when she is allowed to. Her movement is awesome, great herding instinct and an amazing agility dog. She loves everyone, you can see it in her actions and the way she looks at you. Man, I was so sold on her. At that point I decided I want to partake in the betterment of an amazing breed. So I started looking up everything I could on the Toy and Mini Aussies. The more I read on them, the more I liked them. Next move was I wanted to raise Aussies that could be used for different things. Pets are a number one important thing for people. Aussie’s love and live to please, they give their whole self. I wanted dogs who would have an awesome temperament good social skills. Very important for being around people and especially children. I want dogs that would produce pups with good conformation and agility drive. It was important to me that they have a job and purpose whether it be for, herding, showmanship, breeding or just playing fetch for you. So my next step would be to find the right kind of guys and gals to fill my desire to rise to the top of the mini Aussie breed and excel in the production of amazing companions. Much to my surprise I found them, my loving sidekicks came from O’neill’s Horse Farms and Mockingbird Hill. Awesome dogs with great pedigree’s and championships behind them. Both places have been in business for over 30 years. They started out with standard Australian Shepherds. They slowly started working on developing the mini’s. That takes time to do it right. My husband and I live on a farm. I have 38 acres in which my dogs can run, when I am with them. We have a creek that they love to play in. Sometimes they just play in the horse water while the horses are trying to drink. Our 4 kids and 6 grand kids live close by, Giving me the opportunity to pass on the love of this breed to them (also makes for amazing socialization for the dogs and pups.) So they are around the dogs and pups, giving my puppies the chance to encounter all sorts of new and great things young children can come up with! Their other favorite pastime is to go with me to town of course we have to sort out who gets to go that day. Much to my surprise I found just what I was looking for, My loving sidekicks . |
