This is my male mini aussie. I always put off getting a dog because I didnt want to end up with one who didn't fit my lifestyle. Hes can be lazy and chill when I am but hes ready to go at any second. Hes super sweet but very ornery. His aggression is out of playfulness. He likes to heard kids lol and plays good with them. 110% satisfied with this breed. Hes so much fun and extremely easy to teach and deal with. Doesn't chew stuff up (actually never destroyed anything) but he pretty much goes everywhere I go. I had to share some of the fun and silly things he does. Im mentioning these things in case someone is thinking about getting one. Best dog ever!
