Miniature Australian Shepherds Are Smart

By Essie Craft


Dogs have wonderful energy. They give a lot to our lives. They are very smart and loyal. They can learn a lot of tricks and commands. They are man's best friend because of their unconditional love for us. Miniature australian shepherds are a great choice if you are looking to get a dog.

It is a very intelligent breed so it must have a lot of stimulation. Toys and food treats you use when you are training them various commands will really help them stay on top of boredom. If boredom does ensue, you may see digging or chewing occur. Try to keep all of your favorite shoes and other things you like out of their reach if you not spending a lot of time with them.

Dogs are not dumb animals. They need to be played with and mentally stimulated a lot so they are are not bored. Dogs have the mindset of a two-year-old human child. They observe everything you do and will make associations about your behavior that you did not even know you were teaching them. They will expect you to do things based on what they have seen you do before.

Read online to find out more about this breed. There is much to learn. If you want to train them or housebreak them, you can do that with some simple steps. Pick dog food that they like, but that also has the ingredients you want them to ingest. Protein is good and corn is not because it contains a lot of sugar.

He or she already has enough energy probably and you want to calm them down. Look at the ingredients on the bag so you can see what is in it. Making sure you know what is in means you are a good dog owner. Not all people have that type of knowledge so sharing it with anyone that you find out does not know will help them and their dog on the long run.

Breeders can be found after a diligent search on the Internet. Find one and try to visit it. Ask questions about the breed to see if it is a good fit for you. Not all dogs are made for us. Spend some time with the puppies to see if you have any type of bond with them. Do this before you buy any of them. It is important to have this bond or the relationship will not be as good.

Ask a lot of questions because if you do not do this, you cannot learn anything new. Take advantage of what they know and see if it works in your situation. The breeder may do this work as a hobby or a profession. It all depends. Ask them what they know and go from there.

Miniature australian shepherds are charming and fun to have. They are playful so one must have energy prepared so they can keep up with them. Enjoy having them in your life so you have a happy and healthy dog.
