Video from Dogs 101 on the
Australian Shepherd if you are looking for a general overview
*One problem though with this video; they said
that Aussies are born with a Naturally Docked Tail. This is false; most Aussies
are born with tails that are docked when they are just 3 days old. If two Aussies
are bred with Naturally Bobbed Tails you will commonly get puppies with spinal cord problems that have to be euthanized.So please ignore that part of the video.*

People have been
asking us what an Australian Shepherd with a tail looks like. Below are some examples of the Aussie's beautiful fluffy tails.
Aussie tails can be various lengths because the quality of the tail has not been looked at when breeding since it is normally
cut off. As more and more breeders choose to keep tails intact the quality of the tail will eventually return.
*We did not breed all
of these dogs but it gives you an idea.*
