We just lost our 1yr old red Kelpie to a snake bite. Very sad. Beautiful most friendly dog you can have. Loyal, trainable and lots of fun. We have a red healer as well and they both played and spent lots of time together. They complement each other’s personalities and temperament. A great combination to have on a property with space and activities to do on their own.
We have a mix of Border Collie, McNab, Kelpie and Plott and she has amazing agility. She’s only 8 months old. Stubborn, silly, hard working and very lovable!! She has been a gift!!
Both great dogs and highly intelligent. The Kelpie is a bit tougher through that's why its suited to Aussie conditions and working with Cattle in 40degree heat.
I've had her Blue heelers and aussies, since 1975 on 36,000 mtn ranch acres. I've had multiple generations of red heelers, good working dogs, but nothing like my first generation of a Kelpie Aussie cross. 😊
Interesting to hear, I've have heard of Kelpies used in the Nordic countries too for search and rescue. Here in Australia nothing comes close as a working dog due to the harsh environment of epic heat, terrain and freezing cold in the same regions.
Definitely A KELPIE I'VE HAD KELPIES for over 50years far superior working and companion just lost my beautiful red Australian Kelpie called DUSTY sadly to heart trouble at 11years old definitely on look out for another Kelpie 🤠🤠🦘🦘🐨🐨🐎🐎👍👍
Stephen, I just got my first Australian Kelpie a week ago kinda by mistake. The shelter thought he might be a Shepard mix, but I did some research and boom, the photo on the website looked exactly like my new pup. I’m really looking forward to training him. Sorry you lost your best friend recently.
kelpies can work cattle too. dunno about border collies. kelpies are very friendly too. b.c are a little more reserved. kelpies can run for miles in the heat and be excellent sled dogs if a little small and not made for cold climes. but can be used as a lead dog. kelpies are the marathon runners of the dog world.
i've had border collies and i currently have a kelpie i like both but i love kelpies more kelpies are my favourite breed and i will have kelpie's for the rest of my life
Both are great working dogs, each just stems from greatly different base environments. While they share some ancestry and are or similar development age, the Kelpie is a creation of necessity for the environment extremes of Australia. Be it 50c degree heat or negative temps in the same region, Kelpies work here in that, and on some of the hardest terrain that other's just cannot handle. Smarts wise both are similar. A smart Kelpie with right training will match any border collie. Both are great but as an Aussie I love our true Aussie dog. Now don't get me started on the NOT Aussie Shepherd, needs a rename 🤣

Border collie and kelpie are a great team ❤
Kelpie!
Kelpie x Collie is actually a great mix with the best traits of both. Becoming a popular working cross on farms now in the UK and Ireland
I grew up with one she was such a wonderful girl ❤️
Facts. I have one. And he's the best.

What about Australian cattle dog?
They heel so generally aren't good with sheep. They're also lazy compared to these two
