About Mini Aussies
Boldheart Water Dogs
The miniature australian shepherd is the smaller version of the standard
aussie, having the same traits as there larger counter parts.  Boldheart is
striving toward combining  the best of the show bloodlines with the great
herding blood lines.  Our dogs have the looks to win in the conformation
ring and the instinct and disposition to do an honest days work whether on a
ranch working livestock or in the agility ring, doing fly ball, frisbee, herding
or just cuddled up next to you on the couch. They are a great family addition.
 Our minis have been bred down from champion standard lines with both
show and working bloodlines, retaining all of the wonderful qualities of their
larger contemporaries, but in a smaller package.  The only difference
between the standard and the mini is the size. Standards are usually between
18 to 24"s  with the mini standing between 14 to 18"s.
Mini aussies are wonderful companions, being loyal and loving.  They are
protective yet fun loving and always ready to go on a new adventure.  
Boldheart is concerned about raising healthy puppies.  Toward this goal, we
guarantee our puppies. We have our breeding boy's and girl's hearts and
patellas cleared, hips OFA'd and their eyes cleared before breeding.  We also
have the puppie's hearts, patellas and eyes checked at 8 weeks of age.  Our
puppies will be up to date on their shots and worming and will have been
evaluated at 8 weeks of age.
If you are looking for a wonderful companion and constant shadow, this
breed could be for you.   Mini aussies are the perfect size to go with you and
enjoy all of your activities.
