Perfect pups
Well behaved good tempered and fast learners. Im very surprised, and very satisfied with my red male and blue female. Great looking dogs as well. Im glad I came and got em. I can tell the pups had lots of love and attention prior to my ownership of them. Thanks Chip, hope we can deal with each other again someday. We'll keep in touch, Roy Uber and Ashley Bahrt.

Sorry I haven't written sooner, but we have been enjoying our new addition so much that I hardly seem to get online anymore. Kelly has been a wonderful addition to our dog pack! She is everything we were hoping for in an ACD. She is best friends with the Borzoi and they play together all the time and all the dogs accepted her immediately. I just wanted you to know that she is very happy and so are we.
Thank you so much for her,
Ellen

Australian Cattle Dogs - History
Australian Cattle Dogs (Blue Heelers or Queensland Heelers) appeared in Australia in the 19th century. Early settlers needed to be able to control large herds of cattle that grazed on vast unfenced bush lands. Only a strong durable dog could help with mustering and moving wild cattle. The Kelpie and the Blue Heeler were developed to assist with cattle work.
There was a lot of experimentation going on in trying to find the perfect combination of dogs to make up the ultimate heeler that could live and work in Australia. That's why the origins of Australian dogs are open to debate, with several theories. The first one says that the settlers used the Smithfield bob-tailed dog that herded stock in Britain, but couldn't cope with the heat of Australia. It was crossed with the Australian native dog, the Dingo. The resulting breed was called Timmins Biters. They were really biters, which couldn't be trusted. Other theories insist that the landowners crossed the Dingo with Blue Merle Scottish Collies, Dalmatians, White Bullterriers and Kelpies.
Australian Cattle Dogs are courageous, tough, intelligent, always alert, watchful, and strong, possessing endurance unlike any other dog of their size and implicit devotion to duty. They are very devoted to the work, capable of quick and sudden movements. The Australian Cattle Dog is excellent both in open spaces and in the cattle yard.
The Australian Cattle Dog can be used as guarding dog, as it's protective and suspicious of strangers. Also it makes a good family pet with its gentleness, playfulness, and loyalty. Australian Cattle Dogs show aggression only when their master or property are threatened and will lay down their lives to protect what is theirs. Australian Cattle Dogs can be the ideal companion animals and adapt well to any lifestyle if given enough human contact and kept active.
From AKC web page
Australian Cattle Dog Breed Standard
The general appearance is that of a strong compact, symmetrically built working dog, with the ability and willingness to carry out his allotted task however arduous. Its combination of substance, power, balance and hard muscular condition must convey the impression of great agility, strength and endurance. Any tendency to grossness or weediness is a serious fault. As the name implies the dog's prime function, and one in which he has no peer, is the control and movement of cattle in both wide open and confined areas. Always alert, extremely intelligent, watchful, courageous and trustworthy, with an implicit devotion to duty making it an ideal dog. The Cattle Dog's loyalty and protective instincts make it a self-appointed guardian to the Stockman, his herd and his property. Whilst naturally suspicious of strangers, must be amenable to handling, particularly in the Show ring.
