Kelpies are amazing working class dogs that can muster sheep and other animals with little or no assistance. The Australian Kelpie is known to be highly intelligent, loyal and tenacious.

Casterton Australia is known as the birth place of the Australian Kelpie. I had wanted to visit since I read a novel based on the history of the breed and realised where they came from. To honour its roll in Australian history Casterton is home to the Kelpie Centre. It is full of all things Kelpie and educates those who visit on the history of the breed.

Unfortunately we didn’t have a lot of time in the area so I plan to one day to go back and explore it more thoroughly.
