More About Aussie-Poo Breed

Miniature Australian Shepherd

Poodle (Miniature)

Overview:

The Aussie-Poo is a charming designer breed, a delightful cross between the Miniature Poodle and the Miniature Australian Shepherd. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parents, these intelligent dogs are known for their striking good looks and often wavy or curly, low-shedding coats, which can come in a variety of colors and patterns. Physically, they are typically medium-sized, athletic, and well-proportioned, reflecting their active heritage. Temperamentally, Aussie-Poos are highly intelligent, playful, and eager to please, making them generally trainable. They thrive on mental stimulation and regular exercise. While adaptable, their energy levels mean they do best in homes with a backyard or access to regular outdoor activity, though they can potentially adapt to apartment living with sufficient exercise. They are generally good with families and children, often forming strong bonds. Potential owners should be aware of common health concerns found in their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions, and certain genetic sensitivities, making reputable breeding crucial.
