No way! Once a female has come to the age of seven her time for producing pups is up. A male can though throughout all his life.
He will generally be your companion by this age.
Well, my grandmother has a 1 year old Australian shepherd and he just eats hard dog food mixed in with wet dog food. It keeps their stomaches in order and it doesn't upset their stomaches.

I got my female Australian Shepherd when she was 3 months old and she weighed 11 lbs. then. She will be 6 months on August 7 and weighs 24 lbs. now. My vet said that she was a good weight. She is solid muscle and very active. Could it be that yours is a miniature Aussie?

The breed of Dog most commonly used as a sheepdog in the UK is the Border Collie. In Australia it is the Australian Shepherd, Australian Kelpie and the Australian Cattle Dog. Some countries also use Smooth Collies, Old English Sheepdogs, German Shepherd-type Dogs and Collie Crossbreds.
An Aussie should have finished at around 18 - 20 months... Each dog is different though.
