"This is my dog Sam, an Australian Kelpie shown here at 10 months old. He loves to run around the yard playing with my other dog. He likes to herd the cows that live in the field next to us. He is extremely smart and obedient. He is friendly to most of the people that come around. He does not like stray dogs or cats to be around his territory or he will go after them. He has killed two animals so far, an opossum and a big field rat! He is good with our cat, though. I have had him since he was a puppy at five weeks old."

Blackie the Australian Kelpie—"Blackie lives on 10 acres in Queensland. He just loves to run around the whole yard...especially at the back where there is a small pond. He loves to just wade in there and roll around the grass. He is also a very intelligent dog and loves playing with the horses next door. He always crouches down and pretends that he's herding the horses. Smart dog!"
