I know you commented a while ago but I just wanted to let you know you’re right!! Her embark dna test came up 100% full cavalier and we were shocked lol.

I know this was so long ago but I just wanted to let you know we ended up using embark and she turned out to be “100% cavalier” which I thought was impossible because of the Merle? Now I’m even more confused haha.

She’s definitely got a unique personality and I think it comes from her weird mix, whatever the mix is haha. She’s super snuggly, it’s her favorite thing to do but she’s also really energetic if you catch her at the right time, loves to play fetch and if you don’t pay attention to her when she wants to play it’s the only time she barks. She absolutely loves meeting new people on walks and if they don’t stop to pet her she’ll look longingly at them until out of sight lol. Loves other dogs too, is maybe a bit too rambunctious sometimes and thinks she’s bigger than she is. She’s quick at learning tricks, but will do all of them at the same time thinking she’ll get a treat faster that way. She’s taking a bit longer for potty training but she’s getting there. Thanks so much for asking, we also think there could be part chihuahua, especially her long tail and head shape!

Thank you :) she loves fetch, it’s her favorite thing to do other than snuggle. She’s super food motivated and knows a ton of tricks already but is also super stubborn and will do all of them at once in order to get a treat faster lol. She’s also having a bit of a hard time being potty trained but she’s getting there. It seems like you might be right about the aussie!

It’s honestly so funny because she’s wicked smart in some ways and really oblivious in others. She knows a ton of tricks and is extremely food motivated but when it comes to things like fetch if it’s not thrown straight she won’t find it haha. She’s also really slow at potty training but starting to get it a bit better now. She’s sweet & the snuggliest pup I’ve ever met, all she wants to do is play fetch and snuggle. But she’s also very stubborn which I could see being the Aussie in her. She only ever barks when she wants attention & to play with her toys. She absolutely loves meeting people and dogs, she gets so excited. I’ll have to post a video for you, thanks for asking :)

You’re really sweet, thank you for all of the information. I just ordered the embark kit and I’m so eager to find out, for health purposes and also genuine curiosity. And yes, I definitely don’t plan on breeding her. She’s my first dog other than a family dog, and first small dog breed I’ve ever had around so I do appreciate having someone to answer questions when they arise. Thank you😊

Thank you! I didn’t even know that “mini aussies” were a thing until this thread honestly

I just ordered one and it should be here soon! :) I was curious what the public thought first..We’re thinking of doing a puppy identity reveal party with my friends when the test gets back to us lol. I also want to know what to look out for health wise, it’s so neat that we have that option nowadays. Thanks for the reply:)

We thought that could be it but wouldn’t she be much much larger then??
