This is my twenty first poll for the weekly article in the magazine (journalism committee). Every week I will post a poll asking you how many stars out of five you’d rate a certain breed of dog and I encourage you all to write why in the comments!
This week it’s the Miniature American shepherd. Even if you’ve never owned one please feel free to give your thoughts based on what you’ve heard, know or ones you’ve met.

Thank you! :grin:
I chose 5 star cuz I love all dogs and also, THE FRIGGIN' SPOTS!!!!!!
Yeah merles are gorgeous
I love the personalities of Minis but I hate how some of them look, I don't mind the ones that were bred by just breeding small standards over and over, but the ones that were bred small by breeding a standard Aussie to a small dog like a shitzu do such an Injustice to the breed can be.
I mean check out the difference the one on the right looks like a smaller standard Aussie it's true to the breed. Where as the one on the left is so obviously a Pomeranian bred with an Aussie and now they're selling it for $800, claiming it's a "miniature" Australian Shepherd. Sure the dog on the left is cute but it is not a Mini Australian Shepherd and it should not be sold as of it is. Dogs like it are ruining the breed
I agree with that. I don’t know much on the topic but I did notice some of them look a little odd.

Yeah, my mom breeds standard aussies so the mixed Aussies really bother me cuz they pretty much all come from backyard breeding
I’ve never met a miniature american shepard, but from what I’ve read about them they seem like amazing dogs! They seem playful and energetic as well as loyal and protective. They’ll love any member in the family and are great with kids. The small size of these dogs also make them super convenient for small houses and travel. Overall I have them four stars, as I’ve never met one but have heard that they’re amazing dogs.
Asher is a Australian Shepherd (with a tiny heeler mixed in) so I’ll review this breed with her in mind since I’m not familiar with miniatures. Aussies are very smart, so smart they NEED to be kept busy. They also have a high energy level and need to be able to burn it off. If she gets to go outside and play with Freya & Maggie for a good amount of time she’s able to be a lot calmer indoors and even nap on me or the floor. I’ve seen a lot of neediness in this breed as well as Maggie (heeler/kelpie) so I’m beginning to think that herding breeds really thrive with affection and attention. Asher will get mad and throw a fit when she doesn’t get the attention she wants. So depending what your looking for in a dog some of their traits can be pros or cons. I’d say overall they need a lot of investment, they are big people pleasers.
