Ken Troyer - Australian Shepherd & Border Collie Hybrid Litter - 10-25-2024

This lean ranch dog is renowned for being the cowboy's herding dog of choice. They have an irresistible urge to herd, and their intelligence has made them a staple in the rodeo circuit. Despite the name, Australian Shepherds were originally bred in California when ranchers admired the herding dogs of Basque, and assumed they were of Australian descent. Their loyalty and intelligence makes them one of the most sought after breeds in the world.

Hailing from the border region of Scotland and England, this intelligent breed is programmed to herd. Stamina and energy define this breed along with their propensity for training, which makes them a fine search and rescue breed. Border Collies are good with adults and children which renders them a popular choice for a family pet.
