Dad Captures Most Epic Video of Mini Aussie During a Game of 'Cheese Chase'

Toy Aussies, with their bright blue eyes and effervescent personalities, are among the cutest breeds. But it’s their playful nature and zest for life that makes them a delight to watch. They bring fun and laughter to any situation.

The excitement and wonder on this little pup’s face is a prime example of the happiness they exude. Check out this video shared on August 18 to see his joy for cheese!

When Koda (@koda.toy.aussie) locked eyes on the small piece of cheese, he never broke his stare! He dashed forward with those tiny paws racing across the lawn. His intense focus was on the prize and nothing else. He was undoubtedly using herding instincts and playful spirit to chase this treat. This cutie was overflowing with happiness and a beaming smile, just grateful to play with his dad. He could not be any cuter if he tried! With his abundant Aussie energy, there’s no doubt he could’ve run all day or for as long as his parents could have kept up.

The Toy Aussie Personality

Australian Shepherds are renowned for their lively and affectionate personalities. Despite their small size, they possess the same intelligence, agility, and work ethic as their full-sized counterparts. These gorgeous pups are loyal, forming strong bonds with their people, and are highly trainable because of their quick learning abilities. Toy Aussies thrive on physical activity and have a strong herding instinct, excelling in various dog sports while seamlessly blending into an active family. According to Dogster, one of the most significant differences in the Miniature Australian Shepard is that they generally need a little more than an hour of exercise daily. In contrast, their full-size counterparts can require five hours or more.

Dog parents were inspired to test this idea with their pups. Viewer @leonaramsay responded, “I need to try this. This is brilliant. It’s the best video. Those eyes. That face. I love it!” This cutie is the complete package! Viewer @rachelhasrisen pointed out, “I think manic would be a better way to describe this pup’s eyes. I am the same way around cheese.” Those gorgeous blue eyes do sparkle, and we all may get this glimmer of excitement when we see cheese. Viewer @mary_loves_the_universe remarked, “A cheese tax! A cheese tax! The song immediately starts playing in Koda’s mind!” That might be, and he was going to collect it.

If your dog loves cheese and a game of chase, this terrific idea is worth a try. It will undoubtedly be a great time and an excellent memory to smile about.
