Dog befriends little Down's Syndrome boy.


This is the heart-warming moment when a gentle dog befriends a young boy with Down's Syndrome and persuades the child to play.
Herman, now five, from La Plata, Buenos Aires, was captured on camera being approached by Himalaya, a Labrador.
Herman's mother Ana, who posted the video on YouTube, said her son usually backs away from contact.

About Ozzy




While there are many theories as to the origin of the Australian Shepherd, the breed as we know it today developed exclusively in the United States. The Australian Shepherd was given its name because of the association with Basque Sheepherders who came to the United States from Australia in the 1800’s.

The Australian Shepherd’s popularity rose steadily with the boom of western horseback riding after World War II, which became known to the general public via rodeos, horse shows, movies, and television shows. Their inherent versatile and trainable personality made them assets to American farms and ranches.  The American stockman continued the development of the breed, maintaining its versatility, keen intelligence, strong herding instincts, and eye-catching appearance that originally won their admiration.

Although each individual is unique in colour and markings, all Australian Shepherds show an unsurpassed devotion to their families. Their many attributes have guaranteed the Australian Shepherd’s continued popularity.
