Embedded in our cultural identity, our iconic Aussie dogs not only get under our feet but also under our skin.

Within the pages of Working Dogs we find a beautifully photographed study of Australia's much-loved rural canines. Two of this country's leading photographers, Andrew Chapman and Melanie Faith Dove, have the length and breadth of our wide land, seeking out the breeds that keep our rural economy ticking.

They have observed and recorded their habits, lust for life and quirky ways. From dusty cattle tracks up north, mustering sheep in Tasmania's lush pastures, to the stockyards of the Western Australian wheat belt and onto Victoria's High Country, they have had them in their sights.

Their cameras capture these wonderful dogs working over all terrain, developing strong bonds with their owners and enriching the Australian outback with their colourful character, mateship, idiosyncrasies and intelligence.
