What Are You Looking For?

For Australian Shepherd Lovers...

I Love Aussies! They are a breed apart. Anyone who has an Aussie knows what I'm talking about.

Corine Graham

No matter how you spell it, Australian Shepard, Australian Sheperd, Australian Shephard or Australian Shepherd, Aussies are my favorite dog breed. By-the-way "Shepherd" is the correct spelling. I always remember because they "herd" livestock for a living.

They are extremely intelligent, alert, loyal, hardworking and energetic. Boy are they energetic, they never seem to run out of steam! This is what makes them such great sheep and cattle dogs. As working stockdogs nothing escapes their notice.

Aussies have an uncanny intelligence with strong herding and guarding instincts. As a working stock dog, agility dog or loyal companion they are tried, tested and true.

If you are thinking of getting a puppy be sure the Aussie Shep is the right breed of dog for you.

They need a lot of excercise and love to run flat out. You don't have to live on a ranch or farm to have an Aussie but be prepared for their boundless energy and to find activities you can enjoy together.

Dog Agility Training is catching on in popularity and is growing in leaps and bounds (get it, leaps and bounds!). Australian Sheps are ideal dogs for agility training and this is a great way for them to burn off some energy. It's also terrific way for both of you to have a lot of fun.

As our site grows we will be adding special sections all about fun activities you can do with your dog such as dog agility, flyball and frisbee. Let's not forget about good ol' fashioned 'fetch'. It's still a winner with the canine set.

But That's Just The Beginning...

Our goal is to provide the most complete information on the web about our favourite breed. From articles about The History of Australian Shepherds (did you know that 'American Shepherd' is probably more accurate) to Australian Shepherd Training and Aussie Health.

A healthy Aussie is a happy Aussie. So we have created an Aussie Health Issues section with valuable information about Hereditary Diseases, Viruses and Bacteria and Worms and Parasites. We will be adding Diet and Nutrition and Pet Health Insurance guides as well.

If you don't have an Aussie dog yet (or do but want another one) we will provide information about dog breeding, How To Choose a Breeder, and links to the best Australian Shepherd and Miniature Australian Shepherd breeders in our Breeders Directory. For important information about the difference between Aussies and Mini Aussies read our About Aussies page.

If you are looking for a puppy for sale please don't forget about the Aussie Resue efforts. These dogs have had a rough time and deserve a good home like yours.

Join 'Levi's Australian Shepherd Lovers Club' (it's absolutely FREE) and I will send you updates about new features on this site. Take a minute and subscribe to the Newsletter. We will also be adding tips and articles of interest. We respect your privacy and will never use your email address for any other purpose. We hate spam and we will never give out or sell your email address to anyone.

I'm excited about creating this site and would love to hear from you! Just use the handy form on the 'Contact Us' page and tell us about the Aussie in your life. Do you have any stories you would like to share with other Aussie Shep Lovers? Don't forget to attach pictures so we can post them on our site!
