Naturally suspicious of strangers, and retaining the protective instincts which made him such an invaluable guardian of the stockman and his herd, the Australian Cattle Dog is still very much a working dog, even when living in the suburbs. He likes to feel useful and is never happier than when he has a job to do, and requires physically and mentally challenging activities. Long walks, plenty of company, and an active lifestyle are necessary to keep this dog at his happiest. In a home where these needs are not met, the breed is likely to become destructive, noisy and dominant.
The Australian Cattle Dog's natural herding, strong protective and territorial instincts require that this breed is supervised with children.
The Australian Cattle Dog comes in colourings of blue, or red speckle.
