The Australian Shepherd is the best-selling dog in France, closely followed by the Golden Retriever and the Staffordshire bull terrier. It is particularly popular in Lorraine, but where does its success come from?
He is the favorite dog of Lorraine. The Australian Shepherd is all the rage in the region. Small, it looks like a stuffed toy, it’s hard not to fall for it. He is a dog with a sweet character, with a lot of energy to spare. Emmanuelle, owner of Ulan, a sixteen-month-old Australian Shepherd, chose this breed because she really wanted to travel. “As I know they are very active dogs, I thought it would be perfect”she confides.
A herding dog
Flexible, agile, it is the result of a cross between Basque shepherds and Australian dogs. In the 1900s, crossbreeding made it a herding dog in the United States. The breed is attractive in many ways.
