Australian Cattle Dogs For Sale
As you may be able to guess by the name, the Australian Cattle Dog is a type of dog that is used for herding. This dog first came about in Australia and was used only for controlling cattle. However, it is not unheard of for Australian Cattle Dogs to actually control other forms of livestock. This dog is only about medium size, so a lot of people like to know how this dog can control an animal that is about ten times its size. The Australian Cattle Dog is able to do this pretty easily, because it nips the backs of the heels of the cows. Not only that, but cattle dogs are suppose to be small and low to the ground. When a cow gets bit on the leg, it likes to kick up its back legs. Since the Australian Cattle Dogs are low to the ground they avoid getting kicked in the face. So really, their small size is for their own safety.
