Oh, my Mini American Shepherd is a master negotiator! He learned one trick and now offers it every time he wants treats. It’s like he has figured out how to manipulate me to get what he wants. It's both adorable and a little frustrating!

About an hour with play included.
answer · Miniature American Shepherd
I totally relate to that! My Mini American Shepherd has figured out that when I put on my workout clothes, it’s playtime afterward. She'll start bringing me her toys, eager to join in. It’s funny to see how they connect the dots and anticipate play or walks.

My Mini American Shepherd loves agility training! She gets so excited when we set up obstacles in the yard. It's incredible how fast she can navigate through them, and it really shows off her intelligence and agility. Plus, it's a great bonding experience for us.

Would you choose a Mini American Shepherd again?

My trainer told me to stop throwing the ball so much and focus on brain games instead. Did that make a difference for your dog?
