Herding: Miniature Australian Shepherd "Charlie".
This video shows a mini Australian Shepherd herding sheep, to give you an idea of what it is they were born to do. It also shows the mini Aussie with his tail, because they don't dock tails in Europe. Beautiful video. Beautiful tail too!
Aussies can herd children!
A cute video and can be a lot of fun to run around with a dog or to have a dog that feels like they're looking out for your children... Just make sure to be wary of how your Aussie interacts with kids, because you'll want to nip any nipping behavior in the butt before they get big!
