Aussies are like 40-50lbs. So yes rat. My dog (of the superior colloid breed) is 65lbs (very lean) and I still consider her small. Most women could pick her up.
I’ve been around on/off for 10 years at least Idfk and I don’t care. Just funny that greaseball creeps call me new as if that would be a bad thing. I’m genuinely ashamed I’m here sometimes

ACDs are based. AS are cringe. don't get them mixed up, australian shepherds are actually hippy gays from california.
I don't think Australian Shepherds are actually mistaken for Australian Cattle Dogs, but I can see how people might think that they are. Australian Cattle Dogs are known for being the most aggressive of all the Australian collie dog breeds, so I guess it's not too surprising that people would think that an Australian Shepherd would behave the same way.
Australian shepherds are the most aggressive of all dogs considered "collies", since they were derived, in part, from australian cattle dogs, and the aggression is needed to drive stubborn cattle.
It's like a staffordshire fucked with a pitbull's buddy situation
Australian Cattle Dogs are considered high-strung and may be prone to aggression if they are not properly trained and handled.
Aussies aren't derived from ACDs either.

Yes, anon, they are. That's where they got the name. "Australian shepherds" were created from a stock of spanish, english, and australian herding dogs, and behaviorally they converge towards the ACD due to being designed for the same stock on the same terrain. Nippy, aggressive assholes with a husky-like stubbornness streak.
Pic related is the australian australian shepherd and the closest thing to the aussie's ancestors today.

the diversity of (hot) takes on the Australian Shepherd on here is mind altering. ACD/Koolie/Kelpie being somehow related/similar performance wise to the AS is a new hot take to me. Previously, these breeds were said to by far outperform the lowly, dumb, disobedient and fat AS. in any case, pic related, the Proto-AS.
aggression: whe a mid sized dog is aggressive you'll know. an AS may give a dry bite when it's space is invaded perpetually and aggressively, like any dog. that's that. if it wanted to hurt you, you'd be in hospital. kids that were to be attacked by an AS would not end up with an accidental scrape but with a lost limb or dead like they do when a pibble gets them.

People confuse ACDd for ASs?
I’ve always been about adopting but then I adopted an ACD and I don’t want anything else I just want more.
Furthermore - they’re not aggressive. The most aggressive dog I ever met was a fucking shorkie - he was cute but bit my face 2x - once when I was just asleep
I don’t blame Harvey but I had a big talk with my brother whose the owner

>once when I was just asleep
there is this german case from waaay back in ye olden DDR tymes where a girl was alone, had a seizure, and her Dachshund/Dackel/wiener hound bites her face off. the dog started licking her at the hands in order to wake her but as this didn't help, it slowly escalated to more "painful measures". really a sad case. the girl was disfigured. the dog was put down.
Superior ancestors can have inferior descendants, as evidenced by you thinking an aussie can't be dumb if its ancestors were smarter breeds.
I mean your parents were smart enough to breed and here you are making excuses for a genetically fucked collie mutt that's the #1 choice for dog karens
>He's not aggressive or you would now it!
A restrained bite instinct is aggression. They are cattle nippers. They're meant to be aggressive.

I wonder how they know these details…
I just know Harvey bit me bc he was in my bed and I moved - he didn’t like that.
I have a scar on my nose from him.
I remember other moments of me shuffling in bed and him snapping at me but I thought I was dreaming.
Not blaming dog but his teeth are crooked af so I’m pretty sure there is inbreeding going on with those designer pups

>I wonder how they know these details…
her feet and legs were bitten too and she was scratched all over. her clothes also were ripped. I'm not saying all the dog wanted to do was "wake her up because it was afraid for her". certainly, at some point, when it had reached the face some form of hunting/killing instinct took over and it went to town on her...
in your case, if this isn't your dog but you somehow came to invade it's space it's only natural it would defend itself... I'd suggest people just ignore new dogs in their surroundings for the first few days so the dog can adjust. let them come to you, do not go to them. once everything is settled, you can start building a relationship at the dog's pace by luring them to you by being interesting/playfull or with toys or with food...

Idk. I don’t have much experience with small dogs. I just happened to spend my summer there to be at the beach. Dog latched on to me wouldn’t leave my side. Just showed aggressive behavior I’m not used to and popping him on the nose only escalated the attitude problem. Again I don’t blame dog.

If that's even how this self recollection of the event went, if both dogs got bloodied to the point where blood was in fact everywhere, no one else intervened, and you didn't face repercussions because YOUR dog got away from YOU, went over and attacked another dog on a leash, you have the problem dog, not that guy. How weak are you, or are you gonna let us know you have an untamed mutt you can't control in a leashed dog park?
Don’t want to spoil her too much she’s smart. Already know several (hand) commands and is potty trained
Breeder said they were going to euthanize if I return this little brat
You must be a total fucking idiot why would you murder someone who is willing to cull a reject of their own breeding program you should work for the USDA
No I never said that. Send breeders should have the choice to cull faults from the breeding programs. Whether that be selling as a pet with a spay neuter contract or prohibiting breeding with said dog
The breeder is an old lady that didn’t even realize pup was deaf. I noticed in 20 minutes on my way home.
I got my money back and told her youu shouldn’t be breeding dogs. As rude as it sounds….She said she’s 4rnsn4def done
Tbh I didn’t ask for money back. I was just like how tf you didn’t notice she’s completely deaf?! She volunteered the money back. I’m just glad she stopped breeding. Apparently this last litter - my pooper was the only one that survived.
Vets say she’s perfectly healthy just totally deaf
I hope she stays that way and you two get to love each other for years to come

Thanks me too.
Some people don’t like active breeds but tbh just keeps me moving more - which is a good thing.
Idfk what aggressive behavior previous posters were even talking about. Do they try to protect property and me - yes. By barking. She also barks at a frog that frequents the yard but won’t get too close. Isn’t that what dogs are supposed to do?
>merle >deaf
surprise. next come the seizures. age of onset for seizures is lower in merles, and epilepsy is more common in merles.
people who breed merle dogs should be strung up for animal abuse. it serves no function, it's just shiny pokemon IRL.
Has 8 of these growing up on the farm. They all went deaf, blind, seized out in that order and had to put them down out back. Must enjoy pain to willingly love one.
Listen - show me the bottom of your feet
How tall are you and how many pounds do you weigh?
Guessing yours died? It's very very common with this breed. RIP

So, you got bit by a Pomeranian/Aussie Mix? You are also retarded.
Was either a puppy nipping or not an Aussie, kek.

you hang out on /LULZ/ right ? go back

Yea assholes you had me all scared my dogs gonna go blind and have seizures.
ACD have speckles
Jesus Christ go to hell you idiots that freaked me out made me question myself for no reason
Kek at Reddit-tier anons saying your ACD is a Merle. The absolute state of false flaggers.
Any mommy who gives their kid cheese pizza is the best mommy ever.
ITT an ACD tries to blend in with fellow collie-types, only to be mistaken for a pit bull and attacked by other dogs.
>Merle

Next comes the heeler aggression, please be careful; most women are shit handlers.

Dumb whore.
Your heccin' pupperino is next.
My god. I hope that goofy looking dog is ok. I have seen my dad have a seizure and certainly wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
Also I’m pretty sure that coloring is just how many heelers are made. This isn’t some genetic malpractice at work.
My pooper that died couple months ago looked like that at a younger age and then her coat changed.

Not my first “novelty” dog

Purebred dogs are in fact novelty unless you aim to put them to work, but I feel like working dogs would rather be fed shit.
BS I have a dog that works and eats pizza and all type of snacks bc I have no self control
Yes she’s going on a diet soon

Yes

A restrained bite instinct is aggression. They are cattle nippers. They're meant to be aggressive.
So your dog overpowered you and then went over and attacked another dog and you blame that dog?
Check the books kid. My dog is alive and well. Can't say the same about the heeler.
Perception is a funny thing.
Welcome to Wauf
Maybe more you understand the bullshit that is Wauf a bit better now
Has nothing to do with blame, more so justification. My dog defended me and it was obvious.
note; perception =/= reality (
)
Another case of nanny dog owners
Based, ACDs/Heelers need responsible handlers or they pretty much will become the new nanny dogs next to GSDs.

You should beat the breeder with a bat if you give half a shit about animals.

>dog's defective better just kill it lol
It's a shame your parents didn't have the same opinion as you.
Hey yeah that’s absolutely correct. Literally the most humane thing to do
Imagine being subjected to some overweight dogfag feeding you cheese pizza and can’t even hear the poor bastard
You would be dead according to you own standards
More like castrated or killed. Also nice try I have no standards
Killed and dead are basically same thing bb
So you’re saying euthanasia for everyone who isn’t made percent?
Would you put a kid to sleep who can’t hear?
No I never said that. Send breeders should have the choice to cull faults from the breeding programs. Whether that be selling as a pet with a spay neuter contract or prohibiting breeding with said dog

Deafness in merle dogs is commonly followed by blindness.
Pls explain.

many such cases!
Also she is deaf so she gets special treatment
Anyone had a deaf dummy?
