The Miniature Australian Shepherd, also known as the Miniature American Shepherd, is a small to medium-sized breed of dog that was developed in the United States. It is a herding breed that was developed from small Australian Shepherds imported to the United States in the late 1960s. Miniature Australian Shepherds are intelligent, loyal, and energetic, and they are known for their strong work ethic and desire to please their owners.

Miniature Australian Shepherds are generally friendly and good with children, and they are often used as therapy dogs due to their calm and gentle nature. They are highly trainable and excel in obedience, agility, and other dog sports. They are also versatile working dogs and excel in herding, search and rescue, and other activities that require their intelligence and energy.

Like other Australian Shepherds, Miniature Australian Shepherds have a double coat of medium-length fur that requires regular grooming. They are energetic and need regular exercise and mental stimulation to keep them happy and healthy. They are not well suited for apartment living and are best suited for owners who can provide them with plenty of opportunities to run and play. They may also be prone to certain health problems, such as hip dysplasia and eye problems, so it is important for potential owners to be aware of these issues and discuss them with a veterinarian or breeder.
