geonni banner Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 I would like to know what kind of dog this is. Not identified by breed or type on the You Tube page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentleLake Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 According to one person's comment on owner Roy Cox's FB page Snow's a "yellow" kelpie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawgirl Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I believe it is accepted in Australia that you can have cream Kelpies. I know that they are often used in Australian movies as substitutes for dingoes. So it is possible? http://www.hnrworkingkelpies.com/Cream.html I am not sure the face looks completely Kelpie like to me, but it could be the angle. I found this working kelpie stud. Absolutely no guarantee of quality, but when you scroll down the previous litters, there are quite a few which have some cream pups in there. https://www.karmala.com.au/pups-for-sale/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptJack Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Could also be a straight up mix. I mean, Kiran was selectively bred for useful work on stock. He's a mix. Not of two purebreds but of generations of mixes of a couple of breeds. Neither his siblings nor his parents looked like anything but they can sure get the job done. His people just call them 'stock dogs'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentleLake Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I went straight to the source and asked Roy Cox on FB. Says he's a kelpie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geonni banner Posted November 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Thanks, GentleLake. I don't go near Facebook, so that was very helpful. The dog seemed a good "header" dog, but looked almost pit-bull-ish to me. I'd never heard of cream Kelpies either - just black and "red" ones.
