Australian Kelpie

Tasked with the difficult job of herding sheep and cattle in the hot Australian sun, the Australian Kelpie is a highly intelligent, eager, and hard-working breed that works well with minimal supervision. Contrary to their name, Australian kelpies aren't actually from Australia at all, but rather they are the descendants of wild dingoes and domesticated Scottish cattle dogs.The Australian Kelpie is a live wire of intelligence and energy, always alert, always calculating. They were bred to work hard and think fast, and even in a quiet home, their mind doesn?t slow down. They form strong attachments to those who give them purpose and clarity.
