I Love Aussies! They are
a breed apart. Anyone who has an Aussie knows what I'm
talking about.
No matter how you spell it, Australian Shepard, Australian Sheperd,
Australian Shephard or Australian Shepherd, Aussies are my favorite
dog breed. By-the-way "Shepherd" is the correct spelling.
I always remember because they "herd" livestock for
a living.
They are extremely intelligent, alert, loyal, hardworking
and energetic. Boy are they energetic, they never seem
to run out of steam! This is what makes them such great sheep
and cattle dogs. As working stockdogs nothing escapes their notice.
Aussies have an uncanny intelligence with strong herding and
guarding instincts. As a working stock dog, agility dog or loyal
companion they are tried, tested and true.
If you are thinking of getting a puppy be
sure the Aussie Shep is the right breed of dog for you.
They need a lot of excercise and love to run
flat out. You don't have to live on a ranch or farm to have an
Aussie but be prepared for their boundless energy and to find
activities you can enjoy together.
Dog Agility Training is catching
on in popularity and is growing in leaps and bounds (get it, leaps
and bounds!). Australian Sheps are ideal dogs for agility training
and this is a great way for them to burn off some energy. It's
also terrific way for both of you to have a lot of fun.
As our site grows we will be adding special sections all about
fun activities you can do with your dog such as dog
agility, flyball and frisbee. Let's not forget about good
ol' fashioned 'fetch'. It's still a winner with the canine set.
But that's just the beginning...
Our goal is to provide the
most complete information on the web about our favourite
breed. From articles about The
History of Australian Shepherds (did you know that 'American
Shepherd' is probably more accurate) to Australian
Shepherd Training and Aussie Health.
A healthy Aussie is a happy Aussie. So we have
created an Aussie Health
Issues section with valuable information about Hereditary
Diseases, Viruses and Bacteria and Worms and Parasites. We will
be adding Diet and Nutrition and Pet
Health Insurance guides as well.
If you don't have an Aussie dog yet (or do but want another one)
we will provide information about dog breeding, How
To Choose a Breeder, and links to the best Australian Shepherd
and Miniature Australian Shepherd breeders in our Breeders
Directory. For important information about the difference
between Aussies and Mini Aussies read our About
Aussies page.
If you are looking for a puppy for sale please don't forget about
the Aussie Resue efforts.
These dogs have had a rough time and deserve a good home like
yours.
