| What do you get when you combine
the best qualities of the Dingo, the blue merle Highland Collie,
the black and tan Kelpie and the Dalmatian? An outstanding
cattle herding dog and exceptional family companion known as the
Australian Cattle Dog! The Australian Cattle Dog was originally
developed to heel cattle in the rough Australian outback, and
has since gained popularity throughout the world. This
remarkably intelligent breed possesses strength, endurance and
stamina, and are natural guardians that love children - gladly
playing for hours. Australian Cattle Dogs do very well in the
show ring and in obedience training. They require minimal
grooming - just weekly brushing, occasional bathing and regular
nail care. The Australian Cattle Dog is a high energy dog that
requires plenty of exercise. |

| Australian stockmen
needed a tough, silent herding dog to control wild range cattle.
Breeders began with blue merle Smooth Collies and added a
variety of breeds starting with the native Dingo, then the
Australian-developed Kelpie and finally the Dalmatian, to
instill the ability to work with horses. Type was stabilized by
1903. The breed underwent a series of names including Queensland
Heeler, Blue Heeler, Australian Heeler and finally Australian
Cattle Dog. |
