Rex is a really cute realistic medium-sized black and tan Australian Kelpie handmade and airbrushed plush toy. Kelpies are also known as an Australian sheepdog, muster dog or simply called Kelpie.

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.

Rex 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 Rex was made using 15 recycled plastic bottles from regenerated ocean waste.
