10. Australian Cattle Dog

Bred specifically for droving large numbers of cattle in the vast Australian territories, the Cattle Dog is a medium-sized, short-furred breed that has both the intelligence and energy needed to do their job. They are quite independent and inquisitive, taking well to training especially if made interesting and challenging. They easily get bored and disinterested which means that as an owner, you should be able to keep them active by leading them during outdoor activities and farm work.
