This is a regular laying position. Seems cramped to me but what do I know.

      He’s a large Mini American Shepherd. By large we are only talking 38 lb. But he does have that classic Bernese coloring.

        How tall is he?

        I used to own an Australian Shepherd that was a great dog and have been considering if a mini might be a better fit for my next dog.

          I am not quite sure how measure. I would say around 20" at the withers, but he is much bigger than any of the other dogs from his litter.

          I have had full sized Aussies before as well. Imagine taking that energy and compressing it to a singularity that is always ready to explode. That is Rufus and I wouldn’t trade him for the world.
