AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD
NAMES
Australian Shepherd
Contrary to its name and popular belief, the Australian Shepherd did
not originate in Australia, despite the breed commonly being known as
an "Aussie." The Australian Shepherd is classified as a
working dog, is tall with long, whispy hair and can be any of several
colors (usually called merle) although, they are often seen wearing
brown, black or bluish black coats with white accents.
Because of its working classification, the Australian Shepherd is at
its prime when it has a job to do and the breed is well known for
excelling in sporting activities such as obstacle courses and
frisbee. The breed is most well known, however, for its
unique temperament. The Australian Shepherd actually has two
distinct personalities running within the breed as opposed to one
general temperament. One type of Australian Shepherd may be
more guarded and more reserved and may not be suitable for homes with
children, and the other type is actually specially bred for
socialization and tend to be more happy and energetic. Both
types of Australian Shepherd are loyal to their family and make
excellent companions. If you plan on getting an Australian
Shepherd, be sure to look for the signature smile!
