  2. How'd they get so similar?

    The little dingo (dingo) is like a dog (little dingo)
    But it does (dingo) not have a bark (little dingo)
    The little dingo (dingo) it goes out hunting (little dingo)
    When it's night (dingo) time and it's dark

    The little dingo, (dingo) it likes to howl (little dingo)
    When the moon (dingo) is in the sky (little dingo)
    The little dingo (dingo) its ears are pointy (little dingo)
    So it can hear (dingo) what's passing by

    Walking in the morning light
    Little dingo
    Little dingo
    Little dingo
    Little dingo
    With your furry paws of white

  10. Collies or kelpies: Which muster dog makes a better pet?: Collies and kelpies are beloved working dogs and pets, but each has very different personality and behavioural traits.

  12. Die Kelpies kann man jetzt auch von innen erleben!

    Seit kurzem kann man die beiden Skulpturen nicht nur von innen besichtigen, sondern sogar in ihr Inneres klettern! Bis in 25 Metern Höhe kann man auf einer Art Klettertour die Geschichte und die Skulpturen auf ganz andere Weise erleben.
