01.01.2022 AN ALL AUSTRALIAN ICON HISTORY OF THE HARDY, HANDY KELPIE These days, farmers and drover’s alike would be lost without their lovable companions an...d workers. Many a farmer will tell you, if a Kelpie could open a gate, they’d have no need to employ people. As "helpful as a farmhand", many farms would be lost without them. World famous for their intelligence, loyalty, courage and tenacity, working with all types of livestock and in varied conditions throughout Australia - our iconic Kelpie, is just that... iconic! The breed originated from the intermixing of the progeny of three pairs of 'Working Collies' imported into Australia by three early landholders. The foundation female, born of black and tan working collies on Mr. George Robertson's 'Worrock' Station on the Glenelg River in Victoria, eventually came into the possession of Mr. J.D. Gleeson, who named her... Kelpie At the time Kelpie was whelped, itinerant stockmen used to travel to work at peak times on properties. Jack Gleeson, a young man of Irish descent, had travelled up from the Koroit area to work on Dunrobin which was across the Glenelg from Warrock. An accomplished horseman , he would have also known the attributes of a good Collie dog as he was undoubtedly familiar with the Rutherford strain. He had worked with and was a friend of Mark Tully, a Scotsman, of the family who bred top class Collies of this strain and would continue to do so into the early 1900’s. As Jack already had access to very good dogs, clearly the parents of the female which came be known as Gleeson’s Kelpie, must have been talented in a special way because Jack arranged to swap a stockhorse of very good type for a pup After the swap Jack continued North to Ballarook, in the Wimmera area of Victoria, where he again worked at shearing. It was there that he began the young Kelpie’s training. When the seasonal work had finished he moved on to the Riverina where he met up with Mark Tully at Goonambil station, Urana, in the Wagga area. Mark gave Jack a young black, shorthaired, prick eared dog called Yarrawonga Moss. Moss was a pedigreed dog from the Rutherford kennels, whose parents had been imported from Northern Scotland. Jack had another reason to go to the Urana area. His interest was in Mary Ryan whose family held a large holding there . Eventually they would marry . R.W. Creswick who knew Gleeson wrote: With Kelpie and Moss, Gleeson would do what he liked with sheep, whether few or many. The writer on many occasions had the opportunity of seeing them at work, both mustering and in the drafting yards and never saw their equal. Kelpie was mated to Moss for two litters, from which came, amongst others, Swan and Apps Old Lass. Then she was mated with Caesar, a son of the two black and tan Collies, Brutus and Jenny, which were imported from Jedburgh, Scotland. From this last mating, a black and tan female was given to Mr C.T.W. King. He named her Kelpie after her dam. She became known as King’s Kelpie and her outstanding performance at the first Sheep Dog Trial conducted at the Forbes Show in New South Wales, resulted in the eventual naming of the Breed. When King’s Kelpie was bred from, her pups were referred to as Kelpie’s Pups and eventually, the dogs descended from her and Gleeson’s Kelpie were called Kelpies. At first, dogs of the strain were known as 'Kelpie's pups', but by the turn of the century the majority of dogs of ‘Kelpie-like’ appearance where described as Kelpies regardless of origin. Sadly, Jack Gleeson died at a young age, but his judgement in swapping the stock horse for young Kelpie on the banks of the Glenelg River in Western Victoria would provide a priceless legacy to Australian stockmen and women and to our huge livestock industry For many years the Australian economy rode on the sheep’s back and the Kelpies made this possible ...... ...... ......
