Australian Shepherd (Aussie) Appreciation Thread!!!!!!

Does anyone else have an Aussie that sneezes/snorts when excited?
My neighbors have one, and he sneezes, and I have a lab/aussie mix and he sneezes too. They are so weird

Do you have pictures of your pup?

Use to have a lab x aussie he was a good boy. I miss him.
I dont remember him sneezing though.

Not exactly sneezing, but my one would constantly chuff at me when she found something ridiculous I asked of her. Another would outright have a discussion with soft barks and grumbles. Aussies can be so very goofy. Each one is a bit different, but all seem to find their inner clown.

Pepper keeps poking open the corner lazy Susan cabinet and checks out all the unopened condiments, as well as seeing how full the peanut butter jar is. I'm constantly having to close it.

This is Timber. He is a sweet little man:

And a silly guy:

I’ve always wondered if lab/aussies* are all as nice as Timber. Sounds like they are!

*Can we all just agree to call them Aussiedors?

Alternating between laughing & mad...

Our daughter adopted an Aussie/Lab mix from Animal shelter - turned in w/ her brother. Cant remember how old she was - less than 6 months old. Natural bob-tail. Came w/ name of Malasia, answers to Mei Mei as well.




Very much a velcro dog. 'Dira needed that during her separation/divorce. Ex was pissed (!!) when boys said they had a new puppy. Wow, that got interesting. She & boys moved in w/ us in Dec 2021 when separation started. Mei adopted between Dec 2021 & Feb 2022 - i dont have exact date right now.

She is beautiful!


We had gotten our pup at 5 ish weeks because the mother(pure aussie) rejected the puppies. It was her first litter. We named him Remington called him Remi most of the time. But he was so super. He would have exceled in agility. Knew basic obedience by 10 weeks. And never was afraid. The lab and aussie mixed perfectly.
The last photo. His aussie fur with his lab build. I wish he was still with us.
Ill see if i can find a photo somewhere.
