Description
Active and sturdy, this medium-sized dog, was bred to drove livestock and thrive on constant activity – a trait which means they are unsuited to apartment living. The Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog’s (ASTCD) unusual name derives from a genetic trait meaning they are born with very short tails.
The breed has a reputation for being able to work in extremes of heat that are dangerous to other breeds. An enthusiastic drover, the ASTCD is highly trainable, intelligent, but also prone to independence. They have a strong drive to protect and chase, which makes them good guard dogs but can result in aggression to other pets.
