Shadzia Dax (Shaz) is a gorgeous blue merle. She LOVES to play fetch, go for walks, and get attention. She will stay with you for walking or running and listens REALLY well. Shaz is very observant and notices everything. She's a great watchdog and has wonderful herding instincts that could be brought out. Shadzia is shy and will take a little time to get to know her new family. Shaz comes with: • Registration (ASDR) • Vet Records • Up-to-date shots and worming • Tail is breed-appropriately docked • She is spaid • Pick up between Monteagle & Tracy City, TN • Local delivery is available for a small travel fee The mini-sized breed ranges from 18 to 38 lbs. Shadzia is 25lbs. This is a great size for families, farms, or apartments— an ideal-sized best friend with full-size fun and personality. When it comes to their love of play, Aussies are very trainable for fetch, catch, and more intriguing antics. The breed is superb with children — the more active, the better. But they have a gentle nature that prevents playtime from getting too rough. They are also eager to work: Give them a job, and they’ll be brilliant workers. Miniature Australian Shepherds have excellent guarding instincts and a strong sense of loyalty to their families. They will let you know if anything suspicious happens around the house, but they are much quieter than other guardian dogs.
