| "Mini & Toy" Australian Shepherd For those interested in the Australian Shepherd, please be aware that there are NO size varieties of Australian Shepherds. The Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA) and The American Kennel Club (AKC) DO NOT recognize such varieties as "Standard", "Miniature", or "Toy" in the Australian Shepherd. "Breeders" and advertisers of standard, miniature & toy Australian Shepherds are simply employing marketing terminologies to facilitate the sale of these Aussies that are dramatically smaller than the norm. This is clearly a marketing ploy to sell faulty, undersized puppies for an increased price to the unsuspecting public. Responsible & reputable Australian Shepherd breeders, who care about promoting this wonderful American breed of stock dog, DO NOT promote the breeding or selling of Standard, Miniature or Toy Australian Shepherds. Coralis Aussies DOES NOT and WILL NOT breed for any wanna-be Aussie size variety. Our dogs are what they are, AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS. All of our dogs are bred to the AKC/ASCA breed standard and we are very proud of it! |
