Our best friends (four legged) 2018 shots

Both blues/reds and kelpies are the sheep herder and cattle mans friends here they can do more work in a day than 2 or 3 men when it comes to herding and all they want is a scratch and food, they are extremely smart my last dog was a kelpie cross that was an unusual colour combination but again was so bright, both my wife and i still get upset when we think of her and it was nearly 12 months ago she passed.
She would nose around under the christmas tree when told and pick out her present and open it by herself all while leaving the grand kids presents alone

I looked at some pics of Kelpies, and they do look similar though the face colors were mostly black and tan on a lot of pics. I'm more or less going by what was described to us as an "Australian Blue Heeler" when we acquired him. I also heard of "Red Heelers" too, but did not know of "Kelpies" until now.

'I do know this, he is a extremely smart dog, learned general dog commands intuitively and tries to 'herd' our 2 cats when they are running around the house until a stern NO is heard! And yes out in public with him the words "pretty" and "beautiful" are used quite often when seen.
