About the 'Australian Cattle Dog'

Also simply known as cattle dog, the Australian Cattle Dog (ACD) is a breed of herding dogs. This breed of dogs are used for driving cattle over long distances across rugged terrain. They are usually medium in size with a short-coat that occurs in two main colours. It either has black or brown coloured hair distributed evenly through a white coat. The Australian Cattle Dog breed is considered a robust breed with a lifespan ranging between 12 to 14 years. This breed is also nicknamed 'Blue Heeler' or 'Red Heeler' based on the colour of their coat and their practice of moving the cattle by nipping at their heels.
