The Australian Shepherd, often known simply as the “Aussie”. The Australian Shepherd is an intelligent working dog of strong herding and guarding instincts. He is a loyal companion and has the stamina to work all day. He is well balanced, slightly longer than tall, of medium size and bone, with coloring that offers variety and individuality.

Australian Shepherds come in several colors: blue merle, red merle, red, tri-color (white, black, and tan), and black. A merle coat has a patchwork of dark blotches against a lighter background, so a blue merle dog has black patches on gray and a red merle dog has red patches on beige.

The Australian Shepherd was developed in California during the 1900s. Aussies excel at watching large herds and can work for as long as you ask. They are highly intelligent and trainable and are well-suited as guide dogs, exercise companions, or as the family pet. They also excel at agility and obedience sports.

Notes on naming Australian shepherd dog names.

Short, sweet and easily recognizable names work best in getting your dog to be responsive. Use a name that is one or two syllables, ending with a vowel, such as “Sadie” or “Rocky.” Don’t choose a name that is too long or difficult to say. A name such as “Sir Barks A Lot” will only confuse your dog.

Some dog behaviour experts agree that puppies are better at distinguishing their name if it starts with a hard consonant, such as C, K, T or B and ends with a long vowel sound such as an E or O.

  1. Choose a Australian shepherd dog Name That Ends With a Vowel.
  2. Dogs tend to respond better to names with two syllables. They’re not short enough to be confused for a cue like sit, down, or come.
  3. Avoid Names With Negative Connotations.
  4. Don’t Pick One That Might Get Confused With Commands.
  5. Choose A Australian shepherd Name That’s Unlike Your Other Pets.
  6. Perform The “Nickname Test”.
  7. Think Of Your Dog’s Personality.
  8. Choose a Name And Stick With It.
  9. Don’t give a name based on negative personality traits.
  10. Don’t make it something embarrassing to have to yell out.
  11. The dog’s name should be used as soon as possible.
  12. Avoid changing an adult dog’s name if the dog knows it already. If you must change the name, choose one that sounds similar. “Bailey” can be changed to “Hailey” or “Kaylee,” and “Charlie” can easily become “Harley” or “Farley. ”
