Generally, the answer to this question is 'No'. Unless the dog is afforded daily exercise and NOT crated or left alone in an apartment. They are full of energy, extremely intelligent & easily bored. Border-Aussie's should be socialized as early as possible. While they are not generally aggressive they can be protective of you or what they may consider their property. One other aspect of the Border-Aussie is that they will attempt, often, to be the pack alpha and therefore require of firm, consistent owner.

Given a good environment to live in a Border-Aussie is, in my opinion, one of the most enjoyable pets a person could have. They can learn nearly behavior you care to teach in an unusually short amount of time and they are eager to please you.

What dog is smarter an Aussie or a sheltey?

A wolf and a Border collie. The wolf is smarter than the Border collie by the way. The Aussie is a more intelligent animal than the sheltie, as they seem to learn faster, and have superior herding skills. Not to say shelties are not intelligent, but the Aussie learns his job faster. Border collies are reknown for their herding skills, and the Australian shepherd rivals their ability.

If it's more than one Aussie - the apostrophe is 'implied' - as in "The Aussies lost again"Aussies's can have an apostrophe but there shouldn't be an s after the apostrophe.Aussie's is the possessive singular form of Aussie. eg The Aussie's dog is missing. - here - 's - shows the dog belongs to the Aussie (one Aussie).Aussies is the plural form of Aussie and means more than one. eg The Aussies lost the game.Aussies' is the plural possessive form of Aussie. eg The Aussies' fullback was hopeless.There is no implied apostrophe.
