Austrailian Cattle Dog: Then

Australian Cattle Dog ThenAustrailian Cattle Dog is the result of many experiments. Their origin dates back to the time when settlers got into Austrailia they brought their livestock and sheepdogs to bear their burden. But these dogs could not bear the weight that made the settlers think about breeding a more capable dog. Then, Timmins, a man bred a more efficient dog but it took a long time to reach the perfect model. One day the breeders mixed dingoes with blue merle collies. It was not the desirable combination but somewhat nearer to perfection. It was only after 1870, that the breed got mixed with Dalmatian resulting in Austrailian dog. They are well toned and muscular dogs with wide foreheads.
