Cattle Dog
🧠 Temperament
Whip-smart, intense and endlessly driven. Australian Cattle Dogs bond hard to one person and need work; without it they herd whatever is available, including people and bikes.
🎾 Exercise
Very high — 90+ minutes plus daily training or a dog sport.
✂️ Grooming
Short weather-resistant double coat, easy but sheds seasonally.
🏙️ In an LA apartment
One of the toughest apartment breeds. Only realistic if you are genuinely active and ready to train daily.
