About the Breed

The Australian Cattle Dog is a compact but muscular dog, standing between 17 and 20 inches at the shoulder. The ACD is born with a white coat that turns blue-gray or red. Both coat varieties feature distinctive mottling or specking patterns.

The ACD is related to Australia’s famous wild dog, the Dingo. These resilient herders are intelligent enough to routinely outsmart their owners and excel at hunting, chasing and moving livestock. Their boundless energy and supple gait make them excellent running partners.

ACDs have immense work drive and are true-blue loyal, famously smart, ever alert and wary of strangers. If an ACD isn’t challenged he easily becomes bored and gets into mischief. It is recommended that ACD owners participate with their dog in some work, sport or regular exercise to keep him mentally and physically fit.
