About the Australian Shepherd
Despite its name, the Australian Shepherd was developed in the western United States during the 19th century. The breed’s ancestors likely came to America via Australia — Basque shepherds who had emigrated to Australia before continuing to the American West brought their herding dogs with them, and these dogs were crossed with other herding breeds to create the Australian Shepherd. The breed was refined on American ranches, where it became an indispensable partner for livestock management.
