i have a dingo/kelpie 3 years old hes amazing hes timid but boy when u take him for walks hes like a new dog i live on a farm he loves walks very obedient great when roundin up the cows and very protective over the family especially me he sleeps on my bed i love dingos
i can not beleve spelt rong that the dingos have been added on to the endagered species list i will atend to bread them to bring their species of the list
My family had a pet dingo when I was growing up, and she was the most sweet-natured dog I have ever come across. We called her Typex (pronounced "Tip-ex") because the white markings on her paws made it looked liked she'd just stepped in some. She was hard work though, and didn't take well to being left alone in doors - she once ate and clawed her way out the back door of our house after being accidentally locked in (a mistake we never made again).
I have a question...Is the Dingo A Breed of Canine that Hasn't Been Interbreeded With ..Well Another species of canine? See what I'm getting At Is Here In Canada there Is Very few Dog Breeds that Havn't Been Changed..Because Of "mans" involvement...Ie: Red Fox,Wolf.
So To say Was the dingo a A creature that was already there Or that Was there Because of Human Domestication an Involvement?
@MrVapourtrail71 Dingos are decendants of ancient domesticated dogs, as in, the first domesticated wolves there were that outbred their owners. Many went feral and re adapted to a strictly wild life, thats where the australian dingo came from. The American Dingo is a similar story, but a much shorter recent timespan (hundreds of years vs. thousands) but the similarities are immense. Dogs can adapt extremely quickly, its how we were able to breed 'Types'.
@gromann None of what you just said has been proven, that is all just possible explanations. There are other explanations too like, they came to Australia themselves. But in terms of "American dingoes" that's complete rubbish, American dingoes are Carolina DOGS, and they don't even deserve to be called a dingo, they're nothing like them...Carolina dogs...are dogs, dingoes are wolves. Also dingo is an Australian name for the Australian NATIVE animal...it's not an international breed of dog.
@IIproductionsII I hate to burst your bubble, dingo isnt a wolf, it's a feralized dog... Saying a dingo is a wolf is as accurate as saying a chihuaha is.
@gromann No, you're very ignorant....why don't you do some research before trying to appear as you know about Australian wildlife. Dingoes are basically like a smaller version of a wolf, not only in appearance, they behave like wolves too. They howl to communicate, they have the same eating and breeding patterns as a wolf, they also have the similar instinct. Although they're not classified as a wolf (They're classified as a dingo) It's more correct to call a dingo a wolf than a dog.
@IIproductionsII If you believe you're right, you wont be proven wrong, regardless of my experience with dogs. Australian dingoes were very primitive domestic dogs brought there with the settlers that became the aboriginies. If we go by your logic, the husky family as well as the malamute's would be considered wolves and not dogs.
@gromann huskies and malamutes are domestic though, dingoes are wild, therefore they still rely on that wolf like instinct. Huskies have been bred to work with humans for generations, dingoes are the product of no human breeding interference, therefore they have higher levels of adrenalin etc. Dingoes are more protective and aggressive than domestic dogs, they're also much more pack orientated.
@IIproductionsII You act as if i'm telling you they broke free of their captors after the continent became a british colony or something... the process of dog domestication did not take place over a couple centuries, it lasts to this modern era. The earliest domestication came from selective feeding, which lead to the more calm wolves breeding, creating more friendly animals, this is how modern lupus familiaris began with most primitive examples being friendlier than normal wolves, then ..
@IIproductionsII as the process continued with the advancement of humans dogs came to a point where they viewed the cohesive unit of human group, and dog group, as a unified pack, this is where dingos were when they arrived in Australia. However, in a new land and as an animal accompanying nomadic humans and their rapid reproduction rate, they would often begin splitting away, and forming wild groups... This happened several thousand years ago. Coupled with the genetic makeup that
@IIproductionsII makes canids unique in that they change rapidly with each generation, the dingo readapted very quickly. And to say modern dogs are not very pack oriented, if you look at say an alaskan husky, they're EXTREMELY pack oriented, do not bark, have an entirely wolf mindset, while not being so. Most sledding dogs are very primitive in their human-animal social behavior, as well as their vocal characteristics. You could have attempted a conversation, but you decided on a flame war.
Yes but Dingoes are much more dangerous than a husky. To own them in most states in Australia you have to have an enclosure and a permit, and in other states they're banned. I know huskies and I know dingoes, they're very different in terms of behaviour, generally a stranger can walk up to a husky and pat them, dingoes are scared and will become aggressive of people they don't know. Dingoes are also more protective of houses, than the typical German Shepard.
@TheFranjy Dont' worry that guy wasn't Australia, he probably has never even seen a dingo. Dinoges aren't wolves, but if you had to make a choice between a wolf or a dog, they're a wolf. They're classified as a subspecies of the wolf by the Australian government though.
@elr0yy I have 4 dogs & the youngest at 3 yrs is a Red Heeler X Dingo. He is OK with my other dogs but was a 'rescue puppy' when I got him (from a 'wild' litter) & is shit scared of everyone except me. When I got him 2 yrs ago one of my bitches became his 'Mum' & he's very attached to her. Doesen't bark, but howls when I go out, very musically, the neighbours tell me. They love him too fortunately. An unusual dog & I've had a few over the years. Yr right too, a great breed of dog.
what about the silver fox? the silver fox is not one colour, there's black, white and grey.. the grey is how the fox got it's name! over years of breeding, the silver fox started to loose it's foxy smell and it's personality.. it's tail lengths are unpredictable... and the permanent blue eyes.. foxes are born with blue eyes, they develop into brown when older.. the silver fox it'self sometimes has permanent blue eyes... even the ears become floppy!!
my dog looks exactly, i mean EXACTLY like a dingo. shes a German Shepard/ Chow Chow mix... i swear if we took her to australia she would fit right in :)
I had the opportunity to meet Blue at a groomers event in June of this year in Australia. He was clearly uncomfortable with all the attention but handled it very well. Guess he is about three now. I was holding his lead when he discovered the space under the stage and just wanted to hide from all.
I know two alpine dingoes. They are so awesome. By the way, they are great escape artists and can jump up to 6ft high! That's why such a large fence is needed to keep one. They are also excellent diggers aswell.
Me and my family was driving along he nullabor (i think it was) and we stopped at a roadhouse and two wild dingos came up to us and let us pat them and they didnt even attack us and then the roadhouse owner cam out and chases them away :( they were so cute
@V3rtK1ng Nobody could ever doubt a dingo's intelligence. Last time I saw one in the wild, it was beside a busy highway in the far northwest Pilbara region of Australia. He wasn't dead, he was sitting down in a very dog-like pose, waiting for the trucks to pass. They're like any other animal in the wild; they kill to eat, but aren't necessarily vicious.

I have a female dingo I found her as a puppy in wisconsin I wonder who had her before but she is a very smart dog to me she is not wild at all she is now 5 years old and I am looking for a male dog to breed I don't know anyone in wisconsin who has a dingo ugh!
Have raised orphan dingo in nth. qld. for over 25 years. oldest one lived to be 14 years. absolutely amazing animal to say the least and some quite a challenge. they are always by my side and fret when i go away. sing when i leave and sing when i return. nonSteel, i really don't understand your commment.
I had a rainforest dingo called ' Fark ' . Beautiful fellow with a unique personality , ended up being killed by a pack of pig dogs [by crikey I hate pig dogs ] anyway I have never met a more intelligent dog but if you want one to be your buddy , you have to put a lot of time in socially with them i.e. let them inside , feed them well , and of cause plenty of exercise .
nonSteel - what consequences? people have been domesticating wild animals for millenia, and the dingo was originally a domestic breed, although i should think it has changed a bit since then. anyone with any modicum of sense can avoid having an animal rip his face off, provided it is handled correctly from a young age. dogs are the easiest, thats why they are our best friend, dogs and people go hand in paw.
i had a dingo 2 years ago and she followed me every were and basically would listen to every command thing i gave her, but i never sent her to obedience school, she listened fine without that, i loved her so much though.
My dingo was top at her obedience classes amongst lots of other breeds of dogs, she was so far ahead - she learned in seconds commands the other dogs took a week to learn, and she remembered them.
That's the way we domesticated animals in the first place. Selecting the most agreeable, training and breeding those until they came up with a domesticated breed.
Omg, thats the cutest dingo I've ever seen. Dingoes are 'almost' like normal dogs. The trained ones at the zoo can be taken for walks on a leash and don't mind a pat. So I agree with this man that they aren't so bad as they are portrayed. still they are wild and I wouldn't trust one as a pet. Could it be possible to breed wild dingoes with domestic dogs and make a new breed of dog?
In Australia Dingoes are a protected species, and it is highly illegal to cross breed Dingoes with other breeds of domesticated dogs, even an accident results in a large fine, the reason the Alpine Dingo is now endangered is because of cross breeding, the number of pure Dingoes is declining. So it is not a good idea to try and breed a Dingo of any sort with a domesticated dog.
The original species should be protected and let to roam wild and free to feel the wind in their fur blah blah. Now what about all the already cross-bred dogs out there? There's no law protecting them from being further bred is there?
I am sorry but where did you get your information from. Dingos are protected across the whole of australia. They are not a protected species. Only in the victoria is the alpine dingo placed on the heritage list. Unfortunately dingoes are still largely misunderstood. They are aerial baited and have a bounty of $50 per skin paid by the government.
Yeah, unless you're not in Australia. Then it's frickin' cool.
But honestly I would put preservation and restoration first, then new breed development or already existing breed improvement for whatever purposes. If they were more plentiful, then I'd say fanciful pets would be fine. But keep in mind that the Dingo IS still a dog, even if a rare breed or subspecies.
Dingoes can tell us a lot about how domestic dogs came to be. They don't just exist in Australia. They can be found throughout Southeast Asia and Indonesia.
The dingoes that arrived in Australia were at a different level of domestication than we see in street dogs in other parts of the world and at a very different level that more typical Westen pet dogs.
That's why they can be hard pets to keep.
I won't say they are full wild animal, but they aren't a full domestic one either.
All Dingos are shot on site in Western Australias North West by Aboriginal Shooters as they struggle to find food partly due to the huge Kangaroo Cull that happens out there which removes the Dingoes food source.Australian Politicians know nothing about the dingo so they are not protected or given a refuge to see that they are not wiped out like the Tasmanian Tiger.Australia has poor history of preserving its wildlife so take a good look at this pup as it will be one of the few left at this rate
As with all Native wild Australian Animals, the Dingo will be extinct in a few years as they are wiped off the face of the planet by shooters. The Only 100 % Dingo lives on Fraser Island in Queensland but because the Island is a Holiday Mecca for Tourists, the Queensland Gov has begun culling every single Dingo. They are shot on site as soon as they enter anyone's camp. Why? Because tourists who visit the Island don't watch their kids and the Dingo has been known to attack. They are no longer..
The pure breed dingo is extinct on the mainland. Every single one in the wild has feral dog breeding, something which has happened over hundreds of years not due to the cull (Kangaroos numbers have actually been in steady increase over the last 5 years - the only native animal which hasn't succumbed to the drought). As far as Fraser Island being a culling zone, you haven't been there obviously. Six dingos were killed after attacks in the last 2 years so the population is safe. But you know best.
i got a purebred alpine dingo, i'd like him to show me how to train it lol, cos ahhh i know they're not domesticated n mine wont do shit for me unless it knows i've got food....and what the hell is a north carolina dingo ?
This one sure looks different than the ones I saw @ the Lone Pine Koala sanctuary last month, in Brisbane. Very much lighter in color than this one here.
If I'm not mistaken by your description of 'puffing'. Most likely I believe your dingo is trying to alert the pack (you or your family) to a real or perceived threat to the pack.
Do the same thing one day start making those noises staring at a percieved threat and your dingo will probably start helping you alert the pack
Oh dear - I was OK with your reply ('cos everyone has the right to their opinion) then you go and spoil it with some childish remark meant to inflame ... Clearly you have the brain of a gnat and for that you are forgiven - even gnats deserve to have some kind of life :-) .. Be nice ok?.. there's enough people before you who have already stuffed things up in this world - why copy them?
Ha ha, I like how he trys to show how cute Dingoes are and then shows the prison-like enclosure required to contain one. After ten months become "quite aloof and quite 'dingoish'". What a joke.
Well Coribec, perhaps you'd like to try and describe it better?... Having watched Blue from 8 weeks to more than a year now Steve is absolutely right. Blue no longer listens to Steve as he used to... He may not be 'feral' but he's certainly changed a lot and is not 'your average dog' by any means...
PS: There's an old radio saying "Engage brain before opening mouth" :-)
I said what I said because I don't think Dingoes should be promoted as pets or "good" dogs. I wouldn't want a pet that would rather eat me than play catch; also one that didn't pay any attention to me. They are pests just like the wolves and the coyotes are in the U.S.
Branched out genetics of Dingoes are from east asia, but no where else in the world are there dingoes then Australia...( I am not talking about Australian Alpine Dingo
etc, I am meaning just DINGO!) Sorry to tell you all that. And before you go on, you know nothing crap, I am studying dingos in Uni and I think my professor knows what he is talking about considering he has been teaching it for 40 years...
Dingoes were transported from mainland Asia, through South-East Asia to Australia and other parts of the Pacific region by Asian seafarers throughout their voyages over the last 5,000 years. Dingoes arrived in Australia around 3,5004,000 years ago, quickly spreading to all parts of the Australian mainland and offshore islands, save for Tasmania.
snowlion20 Ur a loser wiki is not always rite u can edit and they are not from Asia stupid in my class today we were studying Australia and they are from Australia
Actually no they were brought from Asia some five thousand or more years ago by asian traders but they are used as pets so shut the fuck up or make a good comment oh yea they are "Asatic wolf" look dingo up on wiki fool
Both you fucking idoit's need to learn something and guess what they fucking are from asia this is what they teach in school you fucking moron's and guess what us australians know more then you fucking wannabes no shut the fuck up or make a good coment maybe you should come to australia and learn not just sit in a desk in fucking america or some where else. you cant just say you know something about australia if your not australian so therefore im not a loser you are. now come to australia! and
(aetocarol's son)LUCKY AUSTRALIANS!!!! you outbackers made it ilegal to export dingoes and australia is the only place where you can get them! urrrr! I want a dingo, there have the things I like about dogs, and none of the things I hate about them.
say that to MY dingo, hes a little puppy, hes not feral, infact, hes sitting on my desk as im typing this, hes wondering "what the hell is he doing?" and he is FAR from agressive, but if i taunt him, and get him all hyper, then he gets agressive and slightly feral, and might kill a caterpiller or somthing, but he is a PERFECT pet!

I had a rainforest dingo called ' Fark ' . Beautiful fellow with a unique personality , ended up being killed by a pack of pig dogs [by crikey I hate pig dogs ] anyway I have never met a more intelligent dog but if you want one to be your buddy , you have to put a lot of time in socially with them i.e. let them inside , feed them well , and of cause plenty of exercise .

now please put that wild animal back in the wild before he rips your face off like that Chimpanzee
or you can asume the dingo is your "friend" and reap the consequences : )

ezekielwahwah 2 years ago 2
nonSteel - what consequences? people have been domesticating wild animals for millenia, and the dingo was originally a domestic breed, although i should think it has changed a bit since then. anyone with any modicum of sense can avoid having an animal rip his face off, provided it is handled correctly from a young age. dogs are the easiest, thats why they are our best friend, dogs and people go hand in paw.

That's the way we domesticated animals in the first place. Selecting the most agreeable, training and breeding those until they came up with a domesticated breed.
kay2themax 2 years ago
Omg, thats the cutest dingo I've ever seen. Dingoes are 'almost' like normal dogs. The trained ones at the zoo can be taken for walks on a leash and don't mind a pat. So I agree with this man that they aren't so bad as they are portrayed. still they are wild and I wouldn't trust one as a pet. Could it be possible to breed wild dingoes with domestic dogs and make a new breed of dog?
kay2themax 2 years ago
In Australia Dingoes are a protected species, and it is highly illegal to cross breed Dingoes with other breeds of domesticated dogs, even an accident results in a large fine, the reason the Alpine Dingo is now endangered is because of cross breeding, the number of pure Dingoes is declining. So it is not a good idea to try and breed a Dingo of any sort with a domesticated dog.
wiplash95 2 years ago 2
The original species should be protected and let to roam wild and free to feel the wind in their fur blah blah. Now what about all the already cross-bred dogs out there? There's no law protecting them from being further bred is there?

Kay2themax, wild mixed dingos still count as wild dingos.
FireRupee 2 years ago
I am sorry but where did you get your information from. Dingos are protected across the whole of australia. They are not a protected species. Only in the victoria is the alpine dingo placed on the heritage list. Unfortunately dingoes are still largely misunderstood. They are aerial baited and have a bounty of $50 per skin paid by the government.
tombolom2 2 years ago 2
Yeah, unless you're not in Australia. Then it's frickin' cool.
But honestly I would put preservation and restoration first, then new breed development or already existing breed improvement for whatever purposes. If they were more plentiful, then I'd say fanciful pets would be fine. But keep in mind that the Dingo IS still a dog, even if a rare breed or subspecies.

Dingoes can tell us a lot about how domestic dogs came to be. They don't just exist in Australia. They can be found throughout Southeast Asia and Indonesia.
The dingoes that arrived in Australia were at a different level of domestication than we see in street dogs in other parts of the world and at a very different level that more typical Westen pet dogs.
That's why they can be hard pets to keep.
I won't say they are full wild animal, but they aren't a full domestic one either.

All Dingos are shot on site in Western Australias North West by Aboriginal Shooters as they struggle to find food partly due to the huge Kangaroo Cull that happens out there which removes the Dingoes food source.Australian Politicians know nothing about the dingo so they are not protected or given a refuge to see that they are not wiped out like the Tasmanian Tiger.Australia has poor history of preserving its wildlife so take a good look at this pup as it will be one of the few left at this rate

As with all Native wild Australian Animals, the Dingo will be extinct in a few years as they are wiped off the face of the planet by shooters. The Only 100 % Dingo lives on Fraser Island in Queensland but because the Island is a Holiday Mecca for Tourists, the Queensland Gov has begun culling every single Dingo. They are shot on site as soon as they enter anyone's camp. Why? Because tourists who visit the Island don't watch their kids and the Dingo has been known to attack. They are no longer..
extramural 2 years ago 2
The pure breed dingo is extinct on the mainland. Every single one in the wild has feral dog breeding, something which has happened over hundreds of years not due to the cull (Kangaroos numbers have actually been in steady increase over the last 5 years - the only native animal which hasn't succumbed to the drought). As far as Fraser Island being a culling zone, you haven't been there obviously. Six dingos were killed after attacks in the last 2 years so the population is safe. But you know best.

SilentStickFigureThr 3 years ago
If I'm not mistaken by your description of 'puffing'. Most likely I believe your dingo is trying to alert the pack (you or your family) to a real or perceived threat to the pack.
Do the same thing one day start making those noises staring at a percieved threat and your dingo will probably start helping you alert the pack

Well Coribec, perhaps you'd like to try and describe it better?... Having watched Blue from 8 weeks to more than a year now Steve is absolutely right. Blue no longer listens to Steve as he used to... He may not be 'feral' but he's certainly changed a lot and is not 'your average dog' by any means...
PS: There's an old radio saying "Engage brain before opening mouth" :-)

I said what I said because I don't think Dingoes should be promoted as pets or "good" dogs. I wouldn't want a pet that would rather eat me than play catch; also one that didn't pay any attention to me. They are pests just like the wolves and the coyotes are in the U.S.

Origins and Western recognition
Dingoes were transported from mainland Asia, through South-East Asia to Australia and other parts of the Pacific region by Asian seafarers throughout their voyages over the last 5,000 years. Dingoes arrived in Australia around 3,5004,000 years ago, quickly spreading to all parts of the Australian mainland and offshore islands, save for Tasmania.

I fell in love with dingos when I found a little baby pup (probably about 4-5 weeks old) out in the desert by itself. Mother was dead.
One of the local aboriginals (still following his tribal ways) kept the pup to train as a roo dog. Was the most perfect looking dog I've ever seen.
