Australian Kelpie fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Australian Kelpie is a newbie to the dog breed scene, only having just been recognized by the AKC in 2017.

Over 100,000 Australian Kelpies live in Australia, which makes it easily the most popular working dog in the nation.

In Australia, convicts were first used to herd sheep until the population of sheep became so unmanageable that dogs were necessary to cover the massive distances in a punishing climate, their tireless energy able to do the job of several people at once.
