ABOUT THE BREED
The Australian Shepherd is a medium sized dog with a strong desire for work. Not only are they as smart as a whip, they are as quick as one too. The breed was created to be versatile with the stamina to work herds or flocks all day. With their high energy, and high intelligence the Australian Shepherd is sure to need a "job" to occupy them. As a herding dog; loyalty is a predominate trait they possess.
BREED HISTORY
Unlike it's name suggests the Australian Shepherd actual is an American breed. It's start took place in California and New Mexico. The breed's past is filled with brilliant herders that assisted in shaping America. In the 1800's the Australian Shepherd assisted in providing mutton and wool after the Civil War, and during the Gold Rush.
HEALTH EVALS.
In order for a dog to reach it's truest potential it has to be healthy. Right from the get go all dogs are either cleared through parentage of genetic defects, or they can be tested to know for certain what they carry. As they mature having hips and elbows OFA tested is the next step. Additionally for Aussies it is also important to have eyes evaluated.
