Description
The australian shepherd -- often nicknamed the "Aussie" -- is an intelligent and energetic working dog. Fiercely loyal and protective, these dogs were bred as herders and still exhibit a strong tendency to "herd" people and animals. Famed as a ranch dog, the australian shepherd has an interesting genetic history: originally a European breed, it was developed to herd livestock in Australia and later became popular with cowboys and rodeo competitors in the American West.
