I have had an Aussie in my life for the better part of thirty or so years. They were of the standard variety and my first was Coon Dog because he had the black patches over both eyes.  That dog could herd cattle and track wild animals and he could always find me no matter how hard I tried to hide. He was always with me when I was horse back, no matter how many miles a day.

I didn’t see or know about the mini’s until about six years ago when I went to Oregon to a horse show and ended up staying at the stall managers house because I was too early and the fair grounds wasn’t open yet.  We went to the barn in the morning to feed and she had a barn stall full of mini aussie puppies.  It was love at first sight and I brought Fender home, of coarse I picked the one who grew bigger than both of her parents.  No matter what size she is, she is a great dog, so good tempered and kind. She has never met a stranger.  She is also a hunter and teaches her children to hunt.  Her name is Fender because Barb and Randy needed a Dually Fender for their Ford truck and my husband owns a truck wrecking yard, so we traded.....
