But the name doesn't specifically suggest a specific breed, unless I'm missing something? Most any breed of dog can wag their tails that hard, not just Aussies.
It's your sub, I just figure people often find subs based on their name, and this subreddit's name doesn't explicitly suggest Aussies. Many people, like myself, joined the sub thinking it was something else at first. I do agree that it's not my place to tell you what to do with your sub.
You don't need to be a prick lol. They have a point ;I just discovered this sub from a linked post and I had no idea this was an Australian Shepards only sub . Reading your replies; God you're insufferable. The smallest amount of power ( I'm talking about owning a fucking reddit sub) can make the powerless get a big head. I'll gladly take my ban now. Maybe I'll go create /r/ allbreedswigglebutt or something and ban Australian Shepards 🤔
i might create a sub for dogs that wag their tails so hard their butt/body wiggles, but what would i name it? i need suggestions. also (obviously) it cannot have the name of a pre-existing subreddit
I got my first wiggle butt 22years ago. Tehya's nickname was wiggle butt' because he'd shake it left to right from half way down his back. it was a beautiful sight to see and a great beat to sing along too. Tehya was a Golden and I'd never heard anyone else refer to their pal as wiggle butt, though in fairness we were each other's world and didn't much spend time with other chatty hoomans.
So glad the phenomena of wiggle butts is growing in awareness and spreading across the dog communities in general.
All Heil Wiggle Butts. No matter the colour or breed. 💕🐾🐾💕
i just don’t understand the backlash. no dogs have a wigglebutt the way aussies do! i mean, hell, i’ve had dogs all my life and until i got my aussie boy i’ve never seen a dog move from side to side the way he does
not exactly sure it’s a fact… kind of a subjective thing man, which is why it’s weird to me to respond with that “fact” three months later. whatever though it’s just reddit things lmfao
I have a boxer and can confirm. Have yet to see a video on this sub that compares to her wiggle. Was the original reason I joined. However, I quickly discovered it was was for Aussie only. I love all cute dogs, so I continue to follow.
🤣🤣 I think people on the internet just get too butt hurt over something stupid as this. It is what it is. Deal with it. If you don't like their rules, than leave and move on. And perhaps make your own where you think it make more sense
I guess I meant more of arbitrary. It’s a very specific breed with a overly broad name and it feels wrong to exclude other breeds when all enjoy wiggle butts.
I know you have said “go make your own sub” which is fair, however it’s the same ball park as I’m taking my ball and going home
Not sure if you're just trolling or what, but it's super hypocritical of you to complain about being petty and arbitrary and then to go and say you don't like a whole breed of dogs solely because of a subreddit... Just saying.
It’s just as hypocritical to create an entire subreddit and exclude breeds. Especially when the sub Reddit isn’t called insert breed wiggle butts
I can say I’m not a fan of a breed. Australian shepherds are fine but a whole sub Reddit? Nah that’s just watering down a page where plenty have wanted to show their other breed wiggling their butt in excitement.
Your sub Reddit still makes me dislike Australian shepherds, not that they were even top 25 in my book to begin with. Get your users to not dredge This post up.
Tried to join, as I completely agree tht this sub's asinine rule against every other wiggle butt breed is fucking stupid & an immense disappointment, but alas, it says r/allwigglebutts content was banned? What the hell guys...
people who are mad: it’s just the name of the sub; nickname for aussies. doesn’t mean your dog can’t wiggle their butt. you just can’t post them in the aussie specific subreddit if they’re not an aussie. /gen
So I am considering getting an Australian Shepherd but I work for 12 hours 2 times a week. I am planning on having a friend and/or someone from Rover to come over and walk them for 1hr. on days that I do have to work. Does this seem reasonable or can these dogs not be left alone for that long at a time? Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated! :)
If they can get out on a walk in the middle of your shift like you mentioned, it shouldn't be a problem at all (generally speaking). I'm only on my second Aussie (#3 is hopefully this summer), but they've both been mainly couch potatoes. They love to run and exercise, but the rest of the time they are lazy.
Just my $.02. You may want to make your own post on wigglebutts asking this question so you get a broader range of replies.
Thank you for getting back to me.. that makes me feel a little better. I definitely plan on exercising them a lot when I do have off as well. & okay I'm new to reddit I will do that now, thank you for the tip :)
Best of luck! Definitely aim to walk your Aussie twice a day. My Aussie doesn’t even like to go on walks anymore but he’s at his best when he’s tired and mentally stimulated.
If they're going to be alone for 6 hours at a time, I really reccomend a pen vs a crate. Section off a part of a room so that they can eat, play, and sleep comfortably.
I also find that my little wiggler likes to be able to see as much of the space as possible. Don't put them behind a full wall, instead use a wire fence and gate so they don't get startled.
Also, please make sure they have access to a 'bathroom'!!!! 6 hours is definitely too long without a potty break.
Being a mod is a blast, eh? lol I just found this sub tonight and am truly marveling that anyone has the time or energy to aggressively spar with you over a subreddit r slash wigglebutts not including the dog butts they prefer… just, just wild. Aussie butt wiggles really are something special <3
Oh my this is so insanely petty.
The bottom line, when you are
a guest in someone’s home, you
abide by their house rules. You don’t
complain. You don’t cause friction.
Understood?
Lol, I got downvoted. I like the Hungarian Vizsla variety of wigglebutt, myself. I think we should make a new subreddit called “wigglebooties” where all breeds (potentially all species?) are welcome.
I have a mini Aussie female, 6 years old. I’m thinking of adopting a 2 yr old Border Collie. Do you think he will be too dominant? We will do a meet and greet.
You might want to submit this as a separate post rather than a comment here. Most people probably won't notice it otherwise and I think it's a decent question.
Ah this makes a lot of sense now as to why I see so many Aussies 🤣! The names suggests that its all breeds. I have a mini golden doodle that’s a major wigglebutt!
No wonder why people would get mad at me when I refered to my Aussie as an Ausshole lol 😂. Only aussie owners understand the term
😂
Wait, what? The name suggests it should be about dogs wagging their tails so hard their butts wiggle. Where is the sub name from?
why am i literally on the verge of tears about this. why do i get upset about such dumb shit
You have it right. I just had to post this because I spend a lot of time deleting spam. It's all good.
But the name doesn't specifically suggest a specific breed, unless I'm missing something? Most any breed of dog can wag their tails that hard, not just Aussies.
Yes it does: no other breed wiggle their butt like an Aussie. 🥇🏅🎖
I strongly disagree with this statement. Plenty of dogs wiggle their ass like crazy. It’s not a breed thing, it’s a dog thing
Ah, yes. We just got here first, but there are plenty of other wiggly breeds.
Why not accept them too? The subreddit name just seems a bit misleading, in my opinion.
We've always been an Aussie sub.
It's totally free for anybody to create their own sub for other breeds.
It's your sub, I just figure people often find subs based on their name, and this subreddit's name doesn't explicitly suggest Aussies. Many people, like myself, joined the sub thinking it was something else at first. I do agree that it's not my place to tell you what to do with your sub.
You interested in starting your own? Let me know if I can help.
I wonder if Gshep owners go on Labs subreddits and whine because they can’t post their Gsheps there 🤷🏻♀️
You don't need to be a prick lol. They have a point ;I just discovered this sub from a linked post and I had no idea this was an Australian Shepards only sub . Reading your replies; God you're insufferable. The smallest amount of power ( I'm talking about owning a fucking reddit sub) can make the powerless get a big head. I'll gladly take my ban now. Maybe I'll go create /r/ allbreedswigglebutt or something and ban Australian Shepards 🤔
Call it butt wigglers
I mean r/trees isnt about trees. And r/marijuanaenthusiasts isnt about marijuana.
r/potatosalad isn’t about potato salad either.
🤣🤣🤣 "Something else" you win
i might create a sub for dogs that wag their tails so hard their butt/body wiggles, but what would i name it? i need suggestions. also (obviously) it cannot have the name of a pre-existing subreddit
Buttwiggles?
that could work, or maybe wigglepups?
Aussiewigglebutts, to confuse people (like with r/trees and r/marijuanaenthusiasts (lol somehow I spelled it right)
The sub r/trees Is for marijuana enthusiasts the sub r/marijuanaenthusiasts is for trees. Reddit cares not where it leads you.
Aussie’s are known for the buttshake
I got my first wiggle butt 22years ago. Tehya's nickname was wiggle butt' because he'd shake it left to right from half way down his back. it was a beautiful sight to see and a great beat to sing along too.

😉😉
Wow
Yeah they should have made this clear in the sub name. Crappy on their part to not include that somehow.

Ah, thank you! I'm not really actove on Reddit anymore, but I appreciate this nonetheless.
Exactly!!!!!
i just don’t understand the backlash. no dogs have a wigglebutt the way aussies do! i mean, hell, i’ve had dogs all my life and until i got my aussie boy i’ve never seen a dog move from side to side the way he does
Boxers bulldogs have much better wiggle butts
this was said like 3 months ago dude
Does it change that fact?
not exactly sure it’s a fact… kind of a subjective thing man, which is why it’s weird to me to respond with that “fact” three months later. whatever though it’s just reddit things lmfao
Obviously it’s just a Reddit thing what else would this be. Graduate to dabs amateur
got em
That guy was right.
I have a boxer and can confirm. Have yet to see a video on this sub that compares to her wiggle. Was the original reason I joined. However, I quickly discovered it was was for Aussie only. I love all cute dogs, so I continue to follow.
I too love all cute dogs. However the mod and some people on this sub make it easy to not follow.
It’s a crime that boxers aren’t on WIGGLE BUTTS. Easily better then any Aussie
Boxers wiggle way more.
Any dog with cropped tails that are excited literally wag their asses the same
I just want to clarify, are Aussie mixes allowed or just purebreds?
Aussie mixes and mini American Shepherds are also fine.
Wigglemutts are gtg
What about sheepnees wigglebutts. Shes a ausshole sometimes too haha
I didn’t realize this when I joined, but I am deeply delighted 🥰
This thread made me lol
Before Reddit became more mainstream, it was a thing to name subreddit something clever or an inside joke.
r/velvethippos isn’t about hippos r/moonmoon isn’t pictures of the moon r/peoplefuckingdying contains no gore r/eyebleach isn’t people pouring bleach in their eyes
I guarantee whatever breed of dog you have has their own subreddit where people will appreciate your posts more
Wasn’t clear to me. You haven’t seen a butt wiggle until you’ve seen a beagle awaiting feeding time!!
But have you seen an Aussie wiggle theirs?
There are lots of other wiggle subreddits. Or you could always make your own subreddit :)
Why not rename This one to limit the confusion
There are rules to every subreddit. Learn to read them ;)
The person thought of the subreddit first. Not their issue. It's apparently everyone else's.
False advertising is a shitty thing to do then to double down just makes the creator a bad ambassador for Australian shepherds.
🤣🤣 I think people on the internet just get too butt hurt over something stupid as this. It is what it is. Deal with it. If you don't like their rules, than leave and move on. And perhaps make your own where you think it make more sense

Yes but i am highly disappointed i have 3 MAJOR wigglebutts but i cant post them on any other reddit. Shame i have to leave
Feel free to start your own subreddit. It's pretty easy to get one running and there seems to be demand for it.
...iS tHaT aDDiTuDe Im SeNsInG?????
Nope, genuinely suggesting that another wigglebutts subreddit is needed. I get mod messages every day about other breeds wanting to post here.
Why make this line in the sand?????? Such a petty thing
How is this petty? We built this place.
I guess I meant more of arbitrary. It’s a very specific breed with a overly broad name and it feels wrong to exclude other breeds when all enjoy wiggle butts.
I know you have said “go make your own sub” which is fair, however it’s the same ball park as I’m taking my ball and going home
Still very much stand by this. Definitely not a big fan of Australian shepherds anymore due to this sub
thanks Turlian
Good for you
Good for you, hold fast, king.

This sub Reddit continues to suck 👍
You originally posted here four months ago. Why are you back if you hate this sub so much? You're not going to get your way.
Whoever said the deleted things is right after reading through the convo…just saying
Your sub Reddit still makes me dislike Australian shepherds, not that they were even top 25 in my book to begin with. Get your users to not dredge This post up.
But how do u made a subreddit im new
Go to https://www.reddit.com/subreddits/create and just fill out the form. Boom - you've just created your own subreddit and you're now the moderator.
You may want to figure out the name first. So try going to https://www.reddit.com/r/ThisIsTheSubName or whatever and see if it already exists.
Actually follow the name of the sub
Add in AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERDS to the title so it’s not a blatant lie

Cry more
😂
Am sad I can't post my borderboi, but that's okay I guess 👌
Why not put this information in the description of the sub at the top of the page?
Great idea, thanks!
Yes thank you!
people who are mad: it’s just the name of the sub; nickname for aussies. doesn’t mean your dog can’t wiggle their butt. you just can’t post them in the aussie specific subreddit if they’re not an aussie. /gen
Hello,

Thank you for the clarification! I was so confused thinking I was going to see vids of cute pets wiggly butts.
This sticky is hilarious.
I legit cant believe how butthurt some people are that it's an aussie shep only sub.
So so so cringe yet so funny 😂
I get hate mail over this.
Being a mod is a blast, eh? lol I just found this sub tonight and am truly marveling that anyone has the time or energy to aggressively spar with you over a subreddit r slash wigglebutts not including the dog butts they prefer… just, just wild. Aussie butt wiggles really are something special <3
Some of the crap we deal with is unbelievable.
Share it on here imo.
How are boxers and bulldogs not allowed here?!?!?!?!
Because we created the sub and we created it for Aussies.
Understood from the title however boxers at the very least should be an exception. They truly outshine the Aussie in the wiggle butt arena
First of all how dare you
Could I possibly change your mind by sending you a video of a my boxer bulldog doing a wiggle butt?
To be fair, our boxer has a pretty wiggly butt
Oh my this is so insanely petty. The bottom line, when you are a guest in someone’s home, you abide by their house rules. You don’t complain. You don’t cause friction. Understood?
I genuinely don't understand which side of the argument you're on.
This user has deleted everything in protest of u/spez fucking over third party clients
Oh noes we're all so sad!
Aww, it wasn’t clear. I was enjoying all the wigglebutts.
There are so many wigglebutts out there, seems like all wigglebutts should be welcome.
Exactly, I personally love the German Shepherd wigglebutt
Lol, I got downvoted. I like the Hungarian Vizsla variety of wigglebutt, myself. I think we should make a new subreddit called “wigglebooties” where all breeds (potentially all species?) are welcome.
[removed]
You’re awesome!!
[removed]
I’ll be posting her twice. First, in r/wigglebutts, then in r/allwigglebutts
How do you post on the feed? All I can do is comment on others posts
Your account needs to be a week old. It's a spam-prevention setting I had to enable.
Thank you!
What if I don't have an Aussie that still wiggles her but?
Have a Queensland
Sorry, Aussies only.
Welp, posted a pic with my wiggle butt months ago and still didn't get taken down
I didn’t realize this lol. Was soon to post a video of my cane corso that wiggle butts 😂.
Are Aussie Kelpie x Koolies close enough.. they are Shepard's they are Aussie and they are working dogs
Wigglemutts are fine as long as they have some recognizable Aussie in them.
Thank you
Someone should start a WigglyPups sub.
Don't let your dreams be dreams.
Can mine be an honorary wiggle butt?
He looks so similar and his personality fits!
Love all t the wiggle butt photos!
My baby is a black American shepherd but she looks almost like a long-haired lab. I love her
[deleted]
That's weird, but I'm here for it.
I mean to be fair, “wigglebutts” does not at all sound like a breed specific sub
TBF, with the number of porn submissions we get, it doesn't even sound like a dog sub.
You're right wiggle butts is not clear at all. Lots of breeds have "wiggle butts"
Okay, but what if my boxer is being a real wigglebutt?
Take them for a walk?
Good point I’ll do that!
Also, sorry I wasn’t trying to be an ass I was just messing about!
🔪
When I first subbed to this sub, I thought it was for all wigglebutts, not just aussie ones. I called our boxers 'wigglebutts' all the time!
I have a mini Aussie female, 6 years old. I’m thinking of adopting a 2 yr old Border Collie. Do you think he will be too dominant? We will do a meet and greet.
You might want to submit this as a separate post rather than a comment here. Most people probably won't notice it otherwise and I think it's a decent question.
Thank you. Learning how to post on Reddit.
How did I know this is an Aussie Shepherd sub?! 🤣 Wiggle butts is a perfect name.
[deleted]
You should create this as its own post. It'll get a lot more visibility that way. You may not see responses in here.
Am Aussie owner but I also consider corgies to be wiggle butts too. Smol wiggle
The fact this isn’t a boxer related sub is mind boggling to me.
We got here first is all.
I seriously thought it would have been a boxer sub as well.
Guess you didn't read the sidebar, eh?
Pretty dumb sidebar
Cool story, bro
I tell it at parties
[removed]
Yeah, we started this years ago for Aussies specifically. Go start your own sub if that bothers you.
Hell, I own /r/Aussies and I don't hear Australians bitching about it.
[removed]
Not on my sub it's not.
[removed]
You know anybody can start whatever sub they want, right?
I must leave this subreddit. My rescue was predicted to part Australian shepherd and is 0%. I bid thee well.
My border collie wiggles her butt so hard though!
Borders are cool dogs.
[removed]
Lol
Ah this makes a lot of sense now as to why I see so many Aussies 🤣! The names suggests that its all breeds. I have a mini golden doodle that’s a major wigglebutt!
I'm trying to post my Australian shepherd why can't I post?
That's odd. I don't see any kind of reject message in the mod queue. What happened when you tried?
