#amazinganimals facts for kids
The Australian Kelpie, or simply Kelpie, is an Australian sheep dog successful at mustering and droving with little or no guidance.
It is a medium-sized dog and comes in a variety of colours.
The Kelpie has been exported throughout the world and is used to muster livestock, primarily sheep, cattle and goats.
The breed has been separated into two distinct varieties: the Show (or Bench) Kelpie and the Working Kelpie.
The Show Kelpie is seen at conformation dog shows in some countries and is selected for appearance rather than working instinct, while the Working Kelpie is bred for working ability rather than appearance.
The Kelpie is a soft-coated, medium-sized dog, generally with prick ears and an athletic appearance.
Coat colours include black, black and tan, red, red and tan, blue, blue and tan, fawn, fawn and tan, cream, black and blue, and white and gold.
Kelpies are intelligent and easy to train dogs making them well tempered and good pets, especially with children. However, they require a lot of physical exercise and mental stimulation, otherwise, they can become bored and hence be disruptive by constantly barking or digging, or by chewing on objects.
Taking them on medium to long walks or playing fetch are goods ways to keep them stimulated.
Thank you for watching, let us protect our wildlife!
