My history with the Australian cattle dog begins with the end of my Dobermann, a love which lasted more than twenty years but who went as shutting down a candle exhausted. Just as people must devote to a new, great, overwhelming love, I spent looking for a race that could satisfy my passion for dogs. I wanted a real race, not yet manipulated by man, I would rediscover the pleasure and pride to form a combination with your dog.
It was then that understood that I needed... .. an Australian cattle dog.
My dell'acd discovery was the result of a long and thorough research, I contacted trainers who use dogs in working with livestock, requesting information on races and the kind of work, thus identifying the standard dog I want. Indeed, to define my dog often use the term "real" as I tried, although inside me already chosen race, to identify a line of blood where the man had left the dog in contact with nature and especially with the instincts that are proper. So dogs that had yet been able to prove what it means to grasp the garretti a beast much bigger than them, where their dowry of this enterprise, speed and cunning were not used to all sporting disciplines ... After years of living with this dog, I can say that it is attentive, as high temperament holds, how vigilant, strong hardening, resistance to weather... ... almost a wild dog. It 'a dog who follows me in horse riding, in calling the herd on the floor, playing with my little daughter, is agile and quick, intelligent and affable with all my family.
Let me recount an anecdote: one morning I went into the box to check bitch who had finished the time of gestation; with me was my daughter for three years, and found the bitch who had just gave birth small. A moment of distraction and girandomi saw the girl accovacciata close to the puppies, with a hand of seven, under the gaze of the newly quiet mother. From here highlights the sweetness of character and the link with the family members, which is always ready to play, while a dog is hard and strong when it needs work, hunter of mice and insects; seen also , As svezzi the puppies alone, rejecting their food shortly before eating, maintaining the characteristics of its primordial ancestors canidi.
