How to Train your MINIATURE AMERICAN SHEPHERD

Training Your Miniature American Shepherd

The Miniature American Shepherd is a brilliantly smart, highly athletic, and fiercely driven herding dog. They possess absolutely massive energy reserves.

Key Training Tips:

• Extreme Exercise Required: You cannot train a MAS if they have pent-up energy. They require vigorous daily running; a tired dog is a trainable dog.
• Mental Challenges: Basic obedience is not enough. They absolutely dominate in agility, herding trials, and complex trick training.

They are intensely loyal "velcro dogs" that demand an intensely active, engaged owner.
