Working Kelpie
The Working Australian Kelpie, is a registered breed in Australia as well as in the
United States. The breed is best suited to all livestock, working well in all sorts of situations.
The Working Kelpie has been in North America since the early 1900's. These dogs were imported
to North America to assist in herding animals for the owners of livestock businesses. They are now
found in both sheep and cattle working farms and livestock situations. The Working Kelpie, in both
North America and Australia, can work with minimal supervision, relying on their own
intuition to seek out and collect the desired livestock. The Working Kelpie, like the Border
Collie, is a keen, active dog always able, eager and happy to work. |
