Toy Aussies, anyone?

Does anyone have a toy aussie? I just wondered how poular they are in the horse world. I got a red merle male as my valentines present, and very few people I talk to even knew they were out there.

If you do have one, what are it's characterisitcs, like horse sence, herding ability, intelegence, etc?

I have the standard Aussies but when money permits I'm going to get my hands on a toy. My husband can protest all he wants. I know he can't boil water so when he gets hungry enough he'll cave in and say yes.

If it's anything like my standard dogs. You have an awesome breed in a smaller package.

Yes, they are a great breed of dogs. I raise the mini's...couldn't imagine life without them!

Are they naturaly quite, or do they like to be vocal. My puppy will speak when I ask him to for a little while, but then he quits and doesn't really want to do it anymore. is that normal

My older one isn't a yapper but when the horses or other animals get running or when she is ready to go to the house, she won't be quiet.
My puppy is a vocal player, but she has gotten better, now she just opens her mouth but knows she better not let anything come out ..its kinda funny that she barks with no noise...

Benny grates on my nerves. He yaps all the time. I've had talks with him about how he's an Aussie and aussies are not yappers.

Now Shania on the other hand is quite for the most part.
