Basil (Kelpie - 28cm sitting)

The Australian Kelpie originated in the 1800s in Australia by crossing Collie breeds from Scotland to create a working dog that could handle the harsh climate. It’s rumoured some wild Dingoes were bred into our mix. I make a wonderful pet and can be used for herding livestock, search and rescue, detection, assistance work and performance dog sports.

Basil measures 28cm/11″ in height (to the top of his ears), 23cm/9″ in length without the tail or 33cm/13″ with the tail and 13cm/5″ in width.

The stuffing for Basil was made using 15 recycled plastic bottles from regenerated ocean waste.
