About the Miniature American Shepherd

Miniature American Shepherds pack everything great about a working herding dog into a more compact frame, and their owners will tell you that smaller size does absolutely nothing to reduce the intensity. These dogs want a job. They are sharp, focused, highly trainable, and built for partnership with active people who take their dogs seriously. The breed has a well-documented affinity for horses and thrives in ranch environments, but they are equally at home on an agility course, in an obedience ring, or out on a trail with someone who can keep up. Recognized by the AKC in 2015, the Miniature American Shepherd has been growing in popularity fast, and for good reason. People who discover this breed tend to become devoted to it. Our gear is made for that community, and for every MAS enthusiast who knows exactly what they have in their dog. This collection celebrates the breed.
