Once he feels secure, his silly, happy personality shines through—and you’ll see just how much fun he is. He’s also an expert fetcher and would thrive with someone who understands his breed and can provide the daily activity, structure, and enrichment he needs. ✨ About Ghost: 13-15 lbs of Aussie smarts & sweetness Shy/skittish at first, but warms up with time Needs a small, confident dog buddy for support Kid & cat friendly once comfortable Loves fetch, playtime, and outdoor adventures Apartment or house sized, as long as exercise needs are met Ghost may start out shy, but with the right family, he’ll blossom into your loyal shadow, snuggle buddy, and adventure partner.

Overview:
The Australian Shepherd, despite its name, actually originated in the western United States during the 19th century, bred primarily for herding livestock on ranches. These striking dogs are medium-sized with a sturdy build, often sporting captivating merle coats (blue or red) and piercing blue, amber, or marbled eyes, sometimes with two different colors (heterochromia). Known for their exceptional intelligence and high energy, Aussies possess a strong work drive and thrive on having a "job" to do, whether it's agility, obedience, or extensive exercise. Their temperament is generally loyal, affectionate, and good-natured with their families, though they can be reserved with strangers. Due to their high exercise requirements and need for mental stimulation, they are best suited for active families or individuals with ample outdoor space and a commitment to training; apartment living is generally not ideal. Potential owners should also be aware of common health concerns like hip and elbow dysplasia and certain eye conditions, including Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) and Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA).
