First developed and refined in Australia during the late 1800's to herd
cattle, the Australian Cattle Dog is tough, courageous, and possesses great
stamina. The versatility of this "natural" breed is a tribute to those who have
worked to keep it a true working dog. Their intelligence and ability
to "problem-solve" guarantee the Australian Cattle Dog excel in herding,
obedience, agility or as a vital family member. The Australian Cattle Dog is
part Collie, Dingo, Kelpie, and Dalmatian. The pups are born white. Adult coats
are short, dense, and either red or blue. They are athletically built, and
capable of sudden, quick movements.
