The Australian Shepherd is a very dependable dog and one who is very devoted to its owner. They are strong agile dogs with great stamina. Contrary to their name, they do not come from Australia. They were actually developed in the United States for herding. They are used for various jobs, like herding, narcotics and Search and Rescue.

The Australian Shepherd is good with children and at the same time can serve extremely well as a watch or guard dog. Australian Shepherds come in a variety of colors: blue merle, red merle, black, and red, all with or without copper trim.
