The Lancashire Heeler has humble origins in England as a general purpose farm dog, capable of both ratting and herding cattle.
Some of the Australian Cattle Dog's talents include retrieving, herding, guarding, agility, competitive obedience, and performing tricks.
Australian Cattle Dogs work very well with live-stock, willing and able to drive cattle across vast distances under harsh, hot, dusty conditions. They have superior stamina, and their guarding and herding instincts are very strong.
