お世話

気質

Alert, determined and very loyal, often attaching most to one person. It tends to be cautious with strangers and can be bossy with other dogs. It has a strong instinct to nip at heels.

運動量

Needs at least an hour or two of vigorous activity daily, plus mental work. Herding, agility, canicross, flyball and long hikes suit it well.

手入れ

Low-maintenance short coat: brush weekly, and more often during the seasonal shed when it loses its undercoat.

しつけ

Very capable but independent; it needs clear, consistent, reward-based training from the start. Redirect heel-nipping early and keep training interesting.

健康

Congenital deafness, progressive retinal atrophy, primary lens luxation and hip or elbow dysplasia are known in the breed. Ask the breeder for BAER hearing, eye, hip and elbow results and DNA test results for the parents.

犬種について

The Australian Cattle Dog was developed in the 19th century to move half-wild cattle over long distances in the Australian bush. Breeders combined imported collie-type dogs with the dingo and later other breeds to get a dog that worked quietly, nipped at heels and coped with heat.

It is a hardy, compact dog with stamina to spare. At home it often bonds closely with one person and keeps an eye on everything that happens. It needs daily physical and mental work; under-used, it may herd children, chase bikes or find its own projects. For an active owner it is a loyal and capable partner.

豆知識

An Australian Cattle Dog named Bluey, who died in 1939 at 29 years and 5 months, long held the Guinness record for the oldest dog.
