Mini Australian Shepherd/Border Collie

These puppies will make excellent active family dogs or loyal farm workers. They will be fairly small, likely around 35 pounds (but up to 50 pounds) and incredibly intelligent. The previous litter has some obedience stars, trick masters, and a few starting agility. 

Mom and dad are our family dogs, and the puppies are being raised inside our home with constant attention. Before coming home they will be very well socialized with a variety of animals like cats, dogs, horses, chickens, and cows. They are raised with young children and a baby who play with them every day. They will be introduced to many different people, sounds, textures and toys in order to ensure they are very well rounded, capable and confident pets. 

House breaking and crate training will have already begun before they go home, as well as their first vet check, vaccinations and deworming. From day 3-16 early neurology stimulation (ENS) was done on each puppy, as well as scent introductions to get their brain going at an early age. At 4 weeks, new objects and small structures are introduced to them several times a day so they can get used to new situations and play, play, play! At 6 weeks, obedience training will start, which new owners will have the option to continue with us if interested.

While we do everything we can to ensure our puppies are healthy and well-rounded, they are very active dogs. They will require a job to do and regular exercise to ensure they stay happy and out of trouble. If you have any questions about the breed or their requirements, please don't hesitate to ask.
