Does anyone know anything of this breed? A guy I work with wants to get one, and he wants to get it at the pet store. His roommate already has an Australian Cattle Dog, and is telling him no. The pups have been "marked down" at the pet store, so he's really pushing now. I tried to tell him 1--not to buy them from the pet store, 2--there are plenty of dogs in rescues and shelters, 3--they are a very tough breed to work with (I made that one up), and 4--not to get a dog right now--he just graduated, and may or may not be moving somewhere, and what if the dog can't go?? He or she will end up in a shelter--he says no, if he can't take the dog, his parents might.
I just wanted some info on the breed, so I can ambush him at work.
