Best Answer

There are a couple of breeds of sheep dogs commonly used in Australia. The Australian kelpie is a good dog for herding and guarding sheep. The border collie also herds sheep and is an excellent "eye" dog - that is, it controls the sheep by using its eyes to almost hypnotise or " set " the sheep to move in particular directions.
