WE HAVE BEEN BREEDING TOP QUALITY REGISTERED MINI AUSSIES SINCE 2012. OUR DOGS ARE MINIATURE AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS REGISTERED WITH ASDR. OUR CURRENT BREEDING DOGS WERE GENETICALLY TESTED AND ARE CLEARED FOR THEIR BREEDS KNOWN DISEASES OF 200+. OUR AUSSIES LIVE INSIDE OUR HOME ON OUR 4 ACRE FARM AND HAVE LEARNED QUICKLY HOW TO STAY INSIDE THE PARAMETER WHEN THEY ARE OUTSIDE. THEY PLAY VERY WELL WITH OUR CAT AND THE NEIGHBORS HORSES. THESE DOGS ARE "TOUGH" THEY GO ON DAILY 4 MILE WALKS AND LOVE TO FETCH A FRISBEE AND BRING IT BACK. OUR DOGS HAVE BEEN RAISED AROUND OUR 4 GRANDSONS IN A NOISY ENVIRONMENT WITH LOTS OF COMPETITION AS WE STILL HAVE OUR 2 RETIRED AUSSIES IN WITH THEM. ALTHOUGH THEY WILL BARK WHEN SOMEONE IS AT THE DOOR THEY DO NOT CONTINUE BARKING AND ARE NOT THE WHINING TYPE. THESE DOGS WERE CRATE TRAINED AND CAN BE INSIDE FOR UP TO 9 HOURS WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT ONCE THEY ARE TRAINED WHICH ONLY TOOK A COUPLE OF MONTHS. WITH WEEKLY BRUSHING THEY SHED VERY LITTLE. THE MERLES TEND TO SHED MORE AND THE TRI NON AT ALL. WE USE TO RAISE LABS AND TO COMPARE THESE TWO BREEDS I WOULD PERSONALLY SAY THAT THEIR TEMPER IS IDENTICAL. THESE DOGS ARE VERY TRAINABLE AND WHAT THEY LEARN JUST DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO LEARN. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NOT TRAINED THEM TO BE THERAPY DOGS I KNOW THEY COULD BE IF WE SO DESIRED THAT FOR THEM. WHEN PUPPIES ARE BORN THEY TRANSITION INTO DIFFERENT AREAS OF OUR HOME - STARTING IN THE MASTER BATHROOM THEN OUR BEDROOM SO THEY ARE VERY SOCIALIZED AND LOVED. THEY BEGIN PAPER TRAINING AT 4 WEEKS OLD AND BY THE TIME THEY ARE READY TO LEAVE THEY ARE PAPER TRAINED AND THE TRANSITION TO BE HOUSE TRAINED HAPPENS VERY QUICKLY WITH A LITTLE CONSISTENCY AND STRUCTURE ON THE NEW OWNER'S PART.
