Kelpies are the best dogs. Intelligent, loyal and the best company. We are fostering one now and he is the best.
thank you sir for a good video
We have had 4 kelpies in the past 50 years, all of the have been great dogs and pets.You need to be prepared to spend a lot of time with them ,running them and playing ball with them. They just want to be with you all the time. Very intelligent, smart and will interact with you all day. They have a great nature and get on well with kids,other animals and other dogs. If you are not prepared to interact with a dog don't get a kelpie.

Absolutely correct. Do not get a Kelpie if you do not have a minimum of half an hour or more a day to walk and run it. Train it well with good information. The rewards are worth it. These are generally mustering dogs that run for miles in all sorts of weather working for their owners on farm properties. Not the best dog for a residential area. Not fair to the dog.
We had Kelpies as pets, they like routine n at night if they start playing up turn lights off n command bed time. I usually take them for driving, they like watching stock movements.
I lost my Bella about three years ago, she was 13 and having kidney failure, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her. Best dog ever, best friend too. Someday I'll get another. Love your videos and training series.
Great video. We watched your other videos a couple of years ago on the day we got our latest Kelpie and decided to crate train from day 1. What a difference in managing a kelpie by giving them a place to relax and rest. You are so on the money with the containment thing. Awesome advice.
Thanks, my Kelpie is 6 months old now, your videos have definitely helped to shape him into a good family pet so far.

Kelpies are the best! I compete in agility with mine, he is such a good boy and a lot of fun to train and compete with, and great in the house as well.
We think we have a Kelpie he is 5 year old from the Humane Society. 🥺🥺 Only recently someone said he looks like a Kelpie ..Glad we found this video. Wish us the best.
i adore my kelpie she is the first kelpie i have ever had but i love the breed so much they are my favourite breed and ill only have kelpies now
To keep a kelpie as a pet you will need to have a lot of big fields for them to run

What is contain mean and how long can you contain them? I didn’t realise that I bought a kelpie. and I’m having so much problems he is six months old.
Not all kelpies are energetic either mine is very lazy or maybe content is a better word 😂 but he is always up for a job great dog to have as a pet
Do you have a website?
