kelpies do well in heat but if working they need to be told when to stop and given opportunity to drink, they will literally run till they drop if working (have seen it with one working sheep - disturbing sight). in Australia pets can be sourced fairly cheaply but a working dog from proven stock can go for several thouand. Workers usually come with some training already .
