For all the people commenting with concern about the working Kelpie - they would need to understand that the Kelpie LOVES working. They can be pets but the herding instincts remain and they need a lot of exercise. I have one that I am caring for , while her owner is overseas. I can assure you that the Kelpie girl can smile, she is loyal with natural herding instincts and it might be irritating for some, but it is also comforting in many ways. She is always on my heels following me from room to room, always watching where I go (and her little doggie share mate), very protective. She also can communicate in her own way - grumbles and has conversations of sorts to convey her needs (walk or feed me), She is incredibly loving and gives amazing hugs. I am not sure would recommend them to the sedentary pet owner, but I would reassure anyone watching this video - these kind of dogs would work for the pure joy of working. They are also caring. The little terrier escaped the other day and got way ahead of me, i automatically yelled to bring it back and that was it - the Kelpie was off and running and ran in front of the terrier to stop her and bring her back. Herding is instinctive for these animals:)
Correct my huntaway never leaves my side but like they say, hand that feeds, and when we go walking she never let's another dog near me to stroke it when she's playing

I love how the dog runs to the head of the line to get the frontsheep moving - and there's nothing but sheepyness holding the whole line up. Reminds me of a hourlong traffic holdup on the road, and you get to the end and there's nothing there.
These dogs are trained from about 8-12 weeks to work on the sheep's back, much safer than being down on the ground & getting kicked in the head by every 2nd sheep.
Hannah Spencer Have you seen the European “ratters”? Check out those dogs! Awesome. And they have different breeds for different purposes. Jack Russell’s kill quick where they find them, but if they miss one & it tries to run off, the whippets on the fringes go after the long runners! The dogs are like a machine together! Super cool!
I've owned four Kelpies that came from farm stock, not pet breeders, and they were, and are, amazing dogs, as smart, if not smarter, than Border Collies, from which they were bred in the distant past. To give you an idea of how clever they are, when I used to throw a ball for them, I realized they were anticipating and running off in the direction I was setting myself to throw towards - they knew, well before release. So I started experimenting to see what was cluing them up, and finally realized it was my shoulder alignment. So after that, I used to mess with them, set myself for a normal throw, then toss it away at right angles - not a natural throwing motion, but it at least fooled the clever things. :) Anything you need to teach them as far as basic commands they will learn in a single day - to the point they'll look at you like they're bored - and they live to please and have tons of energy, which is what they were bred for. There's an old saying in rural areas that a good Kelpie is worth as much as four men when it comes to herding sheep. They make great pets and are wonderful ball and frisbee dogs, but anyone considering getting one really needs to appreciate that they need at least an hour's worth of serious play every day to burn off that abundance of energy - and when I say serious play, I don't mean a long walk, but of going to a park (or a large back yard) and tossing a ball or frisbee - you'll know when they've finally had enough because they'll take the ball/frisbee, find a nice shady spot, and lie down with it. I had three kelpies for a few years, and they collectively used to wear me out so much with throwing the ball that I developed shoulder problems - I solved it by using a nine-iron to hit the ball away! So please, don't buy one unless you can really devote that time to them - they need it, more than just about any other dog. They're like the canine version of the energizer bunny. :) On a funnier note, when I moved to the USA from Australia I brought two dogs with me, my malamute and a kelpie pup. At one point, when the pup got to about 2 - 3 years of age, he managed to escape from the yard and ended up at the pound. When I went to claim him I laughed when I looked at the paperwork - my dog, one of the rarest breeds in the USA at the time, had been marked down as a mutt. :)
We saw a dog at the local RSPCA pound here in South Wales UK, he was a handsome dog and friendly as well. We snapped him up, couldn't think why no one else wanted him. The people at the RSPCA say he was just a mongrel, we didn't know any better until we saw an almost identical dog passing our house, the owner said he was a kelpie, I called our dog, she said he was a kelpie as well. Looking on the web it was obvious he was a kelpie, a seriously fit and intelligent dog, never bettered in any way by any of our previous 7 rescue dogs we had had. Sadly, dear old ZAK died suddenly at 10 years of age, it has been a sad loss!!
@@johnwoody9505 Makes you wonder how it came to be in the USA. There's very very few breeders in the country. Maybe someone brought one from Australia and it got out and was never reclaimed.
@@timwilde4200 Once folk realise how great a kelpie can be for sheep herding etc, sheep farmers always would want to improve their farming abilities and kelpies would proliferate. I'm not sure how long kelpies have bee employed in the US for stock control, in fact I have no idea at all!! Our kelpie came along when we had a labrador/staffie cross we called Keith. Keith was a lovely boy but with no common sense, Zak came along as a 7 month old rescue. We knew Keith was dull but lovely, Zak was out 7th rescue dog and was so easy to train and was extremely smart. He almost immediately took over as our top dog in all the jobs like fetching the post, fetching the tins of chum for feeding and anything that was needed. This seemed to suit Keith as he was unable to solve the simplest puzzle. Zak was amazing at learning commands, in retrospect we should have stretched his abilities. I had just decided to teach him the left and right command as we reached a cross road when out walking. I said to Shelagh, I'm going to teach him to turn left or right when we reached a decision point and he was ahead of us. The sad thing was that he suddenly died a couple of days later. So dear old Zak was our best dog in so many ways and we were lucky to have found him and learned about Kelpies.
@@johnwoody9505 I'm glad you found him. People think I'm bragging when I say how smart they are, but they really are. I managed to teach my favourite, a female, to play dead if I pointed my finger at her and 'fired' - she'd instantly flop down and on to her side, though she'd screw it up by raising her head within a couple of seconds to see if I was happy with the performance! :) You can pick them up for next to nothing if you live in rural Australia - the concern is that 'show people' will get hold of them and breed the smarts out of them by breeding to keep judges happy with looks and show appeal personality. On the flip side, the genuine working dogs are highly prized among those who buy and breed them for that purpose - one just recently sold for $50,000.
I was on my girls fathers farm and watched one of them dumb sheep pile drive this kelpie into the race, he shock it off with a little limp and went 0 to 100 real quick, he insisted to carry on so we let him. I took him to the vets the next morning come to find he had a fractured front leg...these dogs are so durable it's ridiculous what they are willing to put themselves through just to work. They truly do love working, When it comes to effort, these dogs are at the top.
I have a coming 3 yr old Kelpie - bred in tbe US but Australian bloodlines - the easiest dog to train - willing to learn - loves everyone - HUGE ears - I'm training him to be a service dog
Apparently they're really good as search and rescue dogs if you train them early enough, in Australia they are now training them for search and rescue because of their agility, energy and intelligence. My niece and nephew did a demonstration with a couple at the Easter show in Sydney, the dog or dogs found them in less than a minute I think
I have owned 2 & they are the smartest protective intuitive caring & brave dogs known to man. The female one , I swear spent every living moment trying to make me happy. Did it in spades!! That girl was so smart . When she got killed by a car I cried for days. At 14 she could still jump a 6 ft fence & run all day. Their size is not intimidating to people but threaten their family you better look out. You need to be aware they need a lot of time to train & bond but soooo worth it. I could sit & stay them in a busy place & trust they would not move till I got back. AWESOME dogs!! Don't start me on how they can protect you. i
Thankyou everyone for all your comments, it is a pleasure for me to work with these great dogs. I am pleased to let you know some more video of the dogs that I have bred will follow shortly.
being an aussie that sees kelpies and sheepdog do this a lot its a bit zzzzz, see it all the time, still awesome, training my 2 months old purebred kelpie right now
marlena asprey Yes. Hello.im a shepherd/herder. That practice of the dog up on top and traveling over top of the ewes or etcetera's backs....that practice is called "wool-walking", by the way. ok..just wanted to try and help out and contribute for the good. Hope it helps. I have this cell phone to use but have never owned a television or computor.etc. So I'm sorry for my poor ability and lack of technological grasps and understandings. Thank you for allowing me to write and to hope to contribute for good.Ok anyway....Thank you and so long for now!
Yes mam is a lot quicker and by far safer for them to glide along the top, very effective and makes our jobs so much easier, bigger dogs it's harder on their back legs so they don't last as long as the smaller fellas, never the less as a farmer and I know all will agree, after time management, good dogs is essential. I have a NZ huntaway that's great in open paddocks and has a wicked eye, but i use these tough little fellas in the yards and sheds.
@@j.m.1535 Hello.I am an Indian.i want to start sheep farming for the purpose of wool.so,please help me and tell me best sheep breed for finest wool production. Thank you
@Billy Williams , both of you guys, shit man! You're both getting into a childish argument over freaking sheep for God's sake. And bringing up remarks about necrophilia and fucking sheep!? Come on, you guys! Shit! It's a video about sheep, I mean how would you guys be talking over an actual important debatable topic?
I was waiting for a car ferry across a fiord in Norway, when along came a woman trailed by a Kelpie, she owned a hill farm and kept sheep, enough said.
you bet they are..some people hate them citing a lack of hygiene(a stupid myth) and lack of independence saying they are too submissive and shit like that.when in reality it's their loyalty gene and the natural work ethic instilled in their genes that make them so loving towards us and such an amazing creature...
I owned a Kelpie until I had to put her down about 7 years ago. Incredible dog! I now own a Blue Heeler. Australian Cattle Dogs are the best Dogs on the planet!
I Love kelpies they are smart and beautiful dogs and the fact that all these PETA animal rights types are here screaming animal abuse means they have no clue how to farm or about that breed of dogs history.
It's animal abuse because they are inprisoning and torturing the sheep it have nothing to do with the dog and PETA have no right to complain they are a cat and dog slaughterhouse
ole nausene obviously, these sheep’s have a new coat, they don’t kill sheep, only lamb, some people do like sheep and some ranches do kill sheep, but you can clearly see all their land full of grass, those pens you saw in the vid have no grass or hay, and most modern shavers don’t cut, if they use shears then they might cut, but not on purpose, you don’t have to worry, just do a bit more analyzing before jumping to conclusions. ;)
Man in the subway: "it's to crowded in here what do we do?" Crocodile Dundee: "Up Up UP" and he walk across the top of all the people to his girlfriend.
Yeah, they are walking across the sheep here in the same way as in that scene. I love that part of "Crocodile Dundee". Great film. Except I think the guy's line was "we're packed in here like sardines, there's no way through", then Croc saying "up up Up" and walking across shoulders to her. I also still find funny her telling the guys to pass down "tell him I'm not gonna marry Richard", then the guy closest to the Croc telling him "she wants to tell you I'm not gonna marry Richard"
I can not imagine the logic of the thumbs down. These dogs are enjoying what they do a good job. He probobally treats these dogs very well for the work they do.
@@wakozako5577 :) . True . We would all LOVE to be in service for mankind and all earths inhabitants.. But we are misled and tricked by our teachers and our leaders.. They make us belive we need to work.. They don't tell us about technology that would make the earth beautiful within one year.. No no...Yes yes soon we will maybe survive
A bit late, but no they're not. Australian farmers created two specific breeds, one for use with sheep (kelpies) and another for cattle (the Australian cattle Dog). Neither is good with the other. Kelpies don't have the size or aggression to deal effectively with cattle as a rule, while cattle dogs, which will nip at the heels of cattle to get them moving, are just too aggressive for sheep. Plus, of course, Kelpies have the priceless gift of being able to run over the backs of sheep to do their work. That's coming from someone who's owned a number of kelpies and has lived and worked in the outback around cattle dogs. :)
I'm an Aussie and I had a kelpie once and I was told a few times it was a dingo X shepherd . It was a pure bred kelpie though. I guess the ignorance has something to do with the similar coat colour.
We adopted one last year in Clovis NM. She is the most intelligent and we'll mannered dog I've ever owned. All of my dogs have been great! They told us as the shelter that she was a German Shepard mix, now I know she's a Kelpie!
The dogs know what they are doing! Very well trained, amazing dogs! Why the dislikes tho, the dogs aren't hurting the sheep, and there are no use of sticks to beat the sheep forwards or anything!
What an awesome cow dog. I LOVE watching these dogs work. We only herd as a dog sport, watching my Heeler's slip into their "zone" is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
@@rinkushukla3299 Doing what the dog was bred to do. Many dogs can live their lives as pampered house pets, but if you allow them to do what they were supposed to do, you'll see them thrive. Her dogs go into herding mode while doing the sport competition because that's what Heelers are meant to do. They are completely in their element.
This is what Kelpies, (not called Australian Kelpie, just Kelpie, as there is no other country that can claim the breed), were bred for. Working sheep in the tough Aussie climate and environment. They are working dogs, they will run over 50klm everyday, and they love it! They also need mental challenges as they are incredibly smart, but also incredibly loyal. They are more driven to please you than by food, quite rare in dogs!They are not really suited to cattle, too light boned for the rough cattle, bred for sheep. The best cattle dog is the Queensland Heeler, blue or red tick, (incorrectly called by some dopey yanks as Australian Cattle Dog).
For all the people commenting with concern about the working Kelpie - they would need to understand that the Kelpie LOVES working. They can be pets but the herding instincts remain and they need a lot of exercise. I have one that I am caring for , while her owner is overseas.

Except I think the guy's line was "we're packed in here like sardines, there's no way through", then Croc saying "up up Up" and walking across shoulders to her. I also still find funny her telling the guys to pass down "tell him I'm not gonna marry Richard", then the guy closest to the Croc telling him "she wants to tell you I'm not gonna marry Richard"
Ha!! Good inference!!
@@alvexok5523, it’s actually, “we’re crammed in here like sheep.”
@@alvexok5523 He says "We're crammed in here like sheep" - it is a specific reference to the Aussie Kelpies
Whoa thats so cool haha never seen a dog ride the sheeps like that before
I can not imagine the logic of the thumbs down. These dogs are enjoying what they do a good job. He probobally treats these dogs very well for the work they do.
Dogs are loved and cared for very much, we couldn't do our work properly without them.
I have a kelpie. I love her. She just had puppies too
I wished i liked my job as much as the dogs! Lol
Those dogs are having the time of their life
awsome job guys yall are so lucky to have a free life making money doing the things yall love
Jeffrey Morton dch

@@wakozako5577 :) . True .
We would all LOVE to be in service for mankind and all earths inhabitants.. But we are misled and tricked by our teachers and our leaders..
They make us belive we need to work.. They don't tell us about technology that would make the earth beautiful within one year.. No no...Yes yes soon we will maybe survive
That dog loves his job
I have a Australia kepie , he is very smart and loyalty
Good Mr Kelpie is crowd surfing, he’s a good boy, yes he is.
"It's just like jumping from one sheep to another."
"You don't jump on sheep, Mackenzie!"
"Really??"
Dogs taking it to the next level 👍. Incredible.
i love how he walks on the sheep
That dog is serious about his job
He sure is.
Awesome hardworking strong dogs
i've never seen a dog "elevating" it's herding game to running ON TOP of sheep before, that's hysterical. oh yeah and a lot of SWEATERS.
How clever dogs they are!
Wow, I envy you....it's hard but it's also beautiful.
Dude's a professional at this work lol
These dogs are also very good at working cattle.
A bit late, but no they're not. Australian farmers created two specific breeds, one for use with sheep (kelpies) and another for cattle (the Australian cattle Dog). Neither is good with the other. Kelpies don't have the size or aggression to deal effectively with cattle as a rule, while cattle dogs, which will nip at the heels of cattle to get them moving, are just too aggressive for sheep. Plus, of course, Kelpies have the priceless gift of being able to run over the backs of sheep to do their work. That's coming from someone who's owned a number of kelpies and has lived and worked in the outback around cattle dogs. :)
Sometimes you see them in shelters labeled as German Shepherd mixes, especially in Texas.
I'm an Aussie and I had a kelpie once and I was told a few times it was a dingo X shepherd . It was a pure bred kelpie though. I guess the ignorance has something to do with the similar coat colour.
We adopted one last year in Clovis NM. She is the most intelligent and we'll mannered dog I've ever owned. All of my dogs have been great! They told us as the shelter that she was a German Shepard mix, now I know she's a Kelpie!
I used to do something similar at rock concerts 😂
For the people saying huntways can’t do this it’s bad well sis,I have a border collie cross kelpie cross huntway he does this and loves it
Man and his best friend working together.
They truly are our mates at work.
The dogs know what they are doing!
Very well trained, amazing dogs!
Why the dislikes tho, the dogs aren't hurting the sheep, and there are no use of sticks to beat the sheep forwards or anything!
Your not wrong but sometimes kelpies will bite at the sheep’s hooves, the will intentionally miss but I does scare the sheep into the right direction!
Actually have a Kelpie. Lots of energy but super smart! Want to train to run agility course as he would kill it!
Love everything about this
Good day I'm from Ont. Canada We had german shepard & when loading pigs, he would jump on top too.
hey michael great just watching them work in a yard or 5000 acre paddockits what they live for
What an awesome cow dog. I LOVE watching these dogs work. We only herd as a dog sport, watching my Heeler's slip into their "zone" is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
What do you exactly mean 'zone'?
@@rinkushukla3299 Doing what the dog was bred to do. Many dogs can live their lives as pampered house pets, but if you allow them to do what they were supposed to do, you'll see them thrive. Her dogs go into herding mode while doing the sport competition because that's what Heelers are meant to do. They are completely in their element.
Dog: the workers; doing it all. Human: management; does a little, yells a lot. ;)
Good to see a working dog doing what it's meant to
Those are some smart working dogs.
Beau travail fait par des beaucerons ! race super pour les troupeaux !
I bet his dog resume is outstanding
Parkour, herd dog style.
mbormes
Ha ha ha
Barkour?
@@ikiltfitymin3030 Pun of the week!
Awesome dogs. Our kelpie is a runt from a sheep farm. She works for truffle scent. Way too soft to heard sheep. Great dog nonetheless
Спасибо за то ,что я вижу это прекрасное зрелище
Dogs mind: let’s go boys! In ya go!
Dogs passion... serving and being Loved.
Such a great breed of dog. Makes the greatest pet/ friend.
What a pair of good boys
I need dogs like this... awsome job there.
My dog is a huntaway and he loves this video he is in a cone
Great work
Que perrito mas trabajador
i thought the thumbnail was clickbait....... no, a big no. i am very impressed.
i don't know why, but i find this hilarious ! : )
This is what Kelpies, (not called Australian Kelpie, just Kelpie, as there is no other country that can claim the breed), were bred for. Working sheep in the tough Aussie climate and environment. They are working dogs, they will run over 50klm everyday, and they love it! They also need mental challenges as they are incredibly smart, but also incredibly loyal. They are more driven to please you than by food, quite rare in dogs!They are not really suited to cattle, too light boned for the rough cattle, bred for sheep. The best cattle dog is the Queensland Heeler, blue or red tick, (incorrectly called by some dopey yanks as Australian Cattle Dog).
Simply put...... Mans best friend.
That little dog is one badass
Wow!!! What a fantastic life!!!
Beautiful background
What a good boy! Strong bond
thats a awesome dog 🐕
Sheep’s backs are like table tops 😂
And there’s some who believe cats are smarter than dogs..yeah I wanna see two cats working as a team like these pooches
So here is someone who loves their job.
Nobody: What job is it?
Jumping on sheeps ♥️🤩
Sheep: Something makes me "think", dog and human together.
Sheep surfing! 🐕
