Kelpies are relatively rare in the US, but when I was originally searching for breeders, there are actually quite a few in the western US (and probably a whole lot more that don't have websites). They are infinitely useful on a ranch. If he's a local dog, I wouldn't be shocked to see a kelpie mix in Texas. The dilute colors of kelpie can have greenish eyes, which is what that dog's look like in the first picture.

I couldn't find a good adult picture, but here's a pup with similar coloring:

If it helps - the picture of the pup above is a blue (dilute of black) and your dog appears to be a fawn (dilute of red), Alpha...

According to the site, the puppy is actually fawn as well.

Really? Maybe it's my monitor.. or my eyes.. LOL the puppy looks very blue to me. If they say the puppy's fawn, though, I definitely believe them - fawn doesn't always show up well in photographs.

yes, it looks blue but the colour is known as fawn (well... fawn and tan), a blue kelpie looks almost black in colouring. They can also come in cream, or be saddled or masked. You just don't see them often.

Just a sec, I'll try to find the page I've been reading.
