Key points: • New book points to dingo DNA from Fraser Island and the mainland in the Australian kelpie • Author Bill Robertson said dingo genes came about in late 1870s, when one mated with a collie • Fines for early sheepmen for keeping dingo-cross dogs thought to be behind secrecy of bloodline If you have ever watched a kelpie at work and noted similarities to Australia's native dog, the association is more than coincidental. Renowned for its boundless energy, speed, tenacity and supreme ability to herd and move stock, Australia's most famed working dog owes some of its qualities to Australia's native dog. The kelpie, proclaimed an official dog breed in 1905, is widely acknowledged to derive from Scottish collies bred at Warrock Station near Casterton in western Victoria in the late 1870s. Today the breed is found everywhere — from sheep country in the dusty outback to the frozen wastes of the Arctic where it is used to herd reindeer. Some historians go as far as to say that without the kelpie, sheep flocks could never have inhabited vast tracts of Australia's harsh inland and the nation's ride to prosperity through wool might never have happened. Now a book by former champion shearer Bill Robertson claims to have uncovered the real story behind the origins of the working dog. 'There were 26 versions that we had counted of how the kelpie dog originated and where it came from,' said Mr Robertson.

His book Origins of the Australian Kelpie — Exposing the myths and Fabrications from the Past, is a detailed investigation the breed and the result of 12 years' work. It has long been rumoured that the original kelpies were developed by interbreeding Scottish collies with the dingo. Mr Robertson turned to science to try and find a definitive answer. 'I decided I'd get the University of New South Wales to do DNA testing on some foundation bloodlines,' he said. He paid for the tests and though expensive, he said it was money well spent. 'The final analysis was that there was between 3 and 4 per cent dingo markers in the kelpie strain and those dingoes were both from Fraser Island and mainland Australia.' 'It's the spirit, the grit, the ability to handle the heat' Mr Robertson believes the infusion of dingo genes began at Warrock Station in the late 1870s when a dingo or dingo-cross was bred with a collie.
