What is a border collie and Australian shepherd mix called?

A border collie and Australian shepherd mix is called a Border-Aussie. They are usually happy, loving dogs that enjoy playing with children and have strong herding instincts.

Border-Aussies are relatively silent dogs. They are intelligent and agile, so they enjoy being trained. These dogs need a lot of exercise, and they love to run long distances. They generally have long coats that need to be brushed daily, and they tend to shed a lot. Border-Aussies come in a variety of colors, but black, white and golden brown usually predominate.
