The Australian Shepherd Dog is not native to Australia, but was developed in the United States to work as a herding dog on the plains. Its name comes from one of its historical ancestors. The original ancestors of this dog were Spanish dogs that, along with Basque sheepdogs, were exported to the United States and Australia with Mexican sheep in the early days of their arrival. They may have been crossed with Collie sheepdogs. Today, they are officially recognized. Their advantages include guard dogs, police dogs, mine detection dogs, search and rescue dogs, sheep herding, guarding, retrieving, agility, obedience and trick competitions. annotations can be in 3DHeight: 10-30cmWidth: 20 cmPrimary Material: FDM, RESIN
