Mini Aussie puppies are smart, beautiful and full of energy. They are also a true herding breed in a smaller package, which means they need more exercise and training than their size suggests. Here is an honest look at life with one.

About the Mini Australian Shepherd

The mini Australian Shepherd was developed in the United States by breeding smaller Australian Shepherds for size. The AKC registers the breed under the name Miniature American Shepherd, so you will see both names used for the same dog. They keep the Aussie look and the Aussie work ethic.

  • Size and weight

    A full grown mini Australian Shepherd usually stands about 13 to 18 inches at the shoulder and weighs about 20 to 40 pounds, with males on the larger end. That makes them a solid medium-small dog, noticeably smaller than a standard Australian Shepherd.

  • Temperament

    The mini Australian Shepherd temperament is loyal, alert and eager to work. They bond closely with their family and often follow their favorite person from room to room. Many are reserved with strangers at first. Their herding instinct is strong, so some will try to herd kids, other pets or even cars by circling and nipping at heels.

  • Energy and exercise

    This is a high-energy breed. Plan on at least an hour of real activity a day: brisk walks, fetch, running in a fenced area or dog sports like agility. Mental work matters just as much. A mini Aussie without a job will find one, and you may not like the one it picks.

  • Grooming and shedding

    Mini Aussies have a medium-length double coat that sheds year round, with heavier sheds once or twice a year. Brushing two or three times a week keeps it under control. This is not a low-shedding breed.

  • Lifespan

    Mini Australian Shepherds typically live about 12 to 13 years, and many live longer. Ask your Pet Counselor about the parents' health history for any puppy you are considering.

Is a Mini Australian Shepherd right for your Miami home?

A mini Aussie fits best with an active owner. If you run, hike, train or spend a lot of time outdoors, this breed will love joining you. If you want a calm lap dog, look at a different breed.

Caring for your Mini Australian Shepherd puppy

Start training on day one. Mini Aussies learn incredibly fast, which means they learn bad habits fast too. Short daily sessions of sit, down, stay, come and "leave it" set the foundation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How big does a mini Australian Shepherd get?

A full grown mini Australian Shepherd usually stands 13 to 18 inches at the shoulder and weighs 20 to 40 pounds. Males tend to be larger than females, and size depends on the parents. A Petland Miami Pet Counselor can share parent information to help you estimate a puppy's adult size.

Is a mini Australian Shepherd the same as a Miniature American Shepherd?

Yes, the mini Australian Shepherd and the Miniature American Shepherd are the same type of dog. The AKC registers the breed as the Miniature American Shepherd, while many owners still call it a mini Aussie. Petland Miami uses both names so you can find the breed either way.

Are mini Australian Shepherds good with kids?

Mini Australian Shepherds are usually affectionate and playful with kids, but their herding instinct can lead to nipping at heels and chasing. Early training to redirect herding makes a big difference. A Petland Miami Pet Counselor can help you decide if a mini Aussie fits your family's ages and routine.

Can a mini Australian Shepherd live in an apartment?

A mini Australian Shepherd can live in an apartment only if it gets at least an hour of exercise and daily mental activity. Without that, mini Aussies often bark, chew and get restless. In Miami, plan exercise for early morning and evening to avoid the heat.

Do mini Australian Shepherds shed?

Yes, mini Australian Shepherds shed year round and more heavily once or twice a year because of their double coat. Brushing two or three times a week keeps shedding manageable. If you need a low-shedding dog, ask Petland Miami about poodle mixes like the Mini Goldendoodle.

Is Petland Miami a mini Australian Shepherd breeder?

No, Petland Miami is a pet store in Kendall, not one of the mini Australian Shepherd breeders. Our puppies come from USDA-licensed breeders with no direct violations and select hobby breeders, named on our Petland Cares page. Miami-Dade County requires the breeder's name and address for every puppy, and you can ask to see it.

What is the mini Australian Shepherd price at Petland Miami?

The mini Australian Shepherd price at Petland Miami varies by puppy, pedigree, coat color and age. For a specific puppy's price, tap Get My Info on its listing or call (305) 363-6959. Petland Miami also offers $0 down financing with low monthly payments.

Yes, you can finance a mini Australian Shepherd puppy at Petland Miami with the Petland credit card, which offers $0 down and low monthly payments. You can check if you prequalify online, and a Pet Counselor will walk you through the application at our Kendall store.
