The Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog is a breed of Dog Breed naturally tailed or long-tailed (not to be confused with the Australian Cattle Dog, aka "Queensland Heeler"). The Australian tailed beef cattle dog was developed in Australia to herd cattle, and descended from a cross between a European shepherd dog and an Australian dingo. The name is spelled with hyphenation, as Australian Stumpy-Tail Cattle Dog , and without, and the shorter name Stump Tail Cattle Dog is also sometimes applied.

History

Australian Stork Cow Dogs originated from Smithfield herding British dogs, which were brought to Australia in the early 19th century and grew up with Dingo. Records of working dogs are scarce from this time period, and there are different notes about the development of breeds. One is that a droll named Timmins from Bathurst, New South Wales, crossed the Smithfield dog with Dingo, producing a working dog called Timmins' Biters. To silence their dingo characteristics and make dogs easier to handle, further crossbreeds were performed with Scottish Smooth Collies, resulting in red and blue speckled dogs often born with no tails.

In the book A Dog Called Blue, author Noreen Clark makes the case that Australian stump dogs and Australian Cattle Dog (aka "Queensland Heeler") descend at one point from the same stock, called Halls Heelers, in 1830 by the enormous cattle operations run by Thomas Hall. The dogs are also a cross of Smithfield and Dingo, but their offspring diverge at some point in the late 20th century. Selective breeding of short-tailed or short-tailed dogs has improved the characteristics of current breeds.

Recognition breed

The Australian Tailed Animal Breed Dog has been recognized as a standard breed since 1988 in its home country by the Australian National Kennel Council, in "Group 5 (Dog Workers)". It is also recognized by the New Zealand Kennel Club nearby in the "Working" group.

More internationally, the breed was temporarily accepted by FÃÆ' Â © dation Cynologique Internationale in 2005, as a standard generation of 351, in "Group 1, Part 2: Animal Husband (Except Swiss Dog Cattle)". In 2010, it was also acknowledged as the Only Teddy Cattle Breed by the United States Kennel Club (in the group "Herding Dog Breeds") since 1996, and with the longer name in the Canadian Kennel Club (in "Group VII: Herding Dogs") , but not by The Kennel Club (UK), or by the American Kennel Club.

These breeds can also be registered by small kennel clubs, dog clubs that work or lead dogs, or internet dog-based registry businesses, and are promoted as pets with rare breeds.

Activity

Stumpy Tail Cattle Dogs can compete in dog trials, obedience, showmanship, flyball, tracking, frisbee, and shepherding events. Instinct and training ability can be measured in uncompetitive grazing tests. "Stumpies" that demonstrate basic heredity instincts can be trained to compete in a lead trial.
