~ Sooo glad you asked this fun question!

{ AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD }

Interestingly, this is n-o-t a breed from Australia!
~ They originated in California during the 1900s
although their ancestors are sheepdogs from
New Zealand and Australia.


{ Before adopting our first darling Sheltie *Emily*
we had briefly considered a sweet little tricolor
Miniature Australian Shepherd instead
