Despite the misleading name, the Australian Shepherd is not Australian at all, but was developed most likely in the Pyrenees Mountains somewhere between Spain and France, and refined in the U.S. to work as a herding dog on ranches. The breed's principal forebears were most likely Spanish dogs that accompanied the Basque shepherds and herds of fine Merino sheep exported to both America and Australia in the early days of the colonies. At some point it probably crossed with Collie stock. The dog has had many names in the past including the Pastor Dog, Blue Heeler, Spanish Shepherd, Bob-Tail, New Mexican Shepherd, and California Shepherd. Its many talents include, retrieving, herding, watchdog, guarding, police work, narcotics detection, search & rescue, agility, competitive obedience and performing tricks.
Australian Shepherd is a descendant of dogs from Basque which were brought to Australia and US by the shepherds. It was later crossed with other Collie type dogs to create a dog with excellent herding skills. Initially Australian Shepherd was used for herding cattle.

The best way to teach an Australian Shepherd sit pretty is to practice, practice, practice. By repeating the process and giving a treat when it is done correctly, the Australian Shepherd will start to sit pretty.
