Awww I love him!!!!!!
I think most pups are.
I don't think they are troublemakers. I call them a PITA, but I use it affectionately. Mine are always right there. They are breed I know will never wander or kill or chase my poultry. I find them incredibly responsive with a sense of humor. They may not always follow my directions, but they always seem to make me laugh. Mine never have a real job. Only one was good at herding. Their job is to take care of the humans, and each finds a way to do that best.
Yes and that's a job. Ryder is always pretty much right beside GC unless she is sleeping. Then he sits IN the dog door, half in, half out, and surveys his domain, and that's one of his self-appointed jobs. He never leaves the property, about 3 acres where the house sits, although we own 10. The rest is wooded or pasture. He is a funny guy with a sense of humor. He keeps trying to play or make friends with one of the cats, who isn't interested and is in fact hostile, but as I said he's an optimist and keeps getting slapped for his efforts. That does not deter him. He's just incurably good-natured!
Aussie are definitely a different kind of dog. They think differently, and have a sense of humor. They can be pushy if you don't take the leader position because they figure someone has to be in charge. I've had many different breeds. The Australian shepherd has been one of the best breeds. They understand full sentences, and come up with some goofy stuff. I like the way their minds work. They were bred to think for themselves as they move and push cattle. If you understand them they are a beautiful dog. If you don't, you are going to have troubles. They need direction, and to feel useful.
That’s good!
That’s awesome!!!!!
I’ve always really liked and wanted an Aussie lol maybe one day! Although now I’m not sure I could do the hair
