Mother was dumped in the country, so we adopted one of the puppies. We didn’t realize he is a herding breed until behavior of nipping our other dogs would not stop. He is a loving boy who just needs to channel that energy to a job like herding cattle. He needs room to run on a daily basis and really enjoys mental games. He is very energetic and then enjoys a good nap. We have been doing scent work (very simple), but he thoroughly enjoys it. He will be very loyal and a good guard dog. He is extremely smart with an independent streak, but he watches you constantly to see how to get your attention. He has some German Shepherd possibly, but his behavior is Australian Cattle Dog. His mother was black too and could have been 50lbs if fed properly. He is up to date with shots.
