  Cattle Dogs - Koolie
The Koolie is a medium-sized dog of varying coat type, usually with a merled coat pattern.
Koolies are typically slightly longer than tall and resemble a cross between a Border Collie and an Australian Cattle Dog, dogs with whom they likely share ancestry.
The Koolie is thought to be descended from the same Collie types that were brought to Australia for the kennels of Thomas S. Hall; some believe that they are the direct descendents of Hall's dogs.

 Koolie - OzPets Breed Review
The Koolie club decided to remove the "German" from the Koolie name because people believed the Koolie was German bred when in fact the Coolie is one of Australia's oldest working breeds - perhaps used by early German settlers.

 Koolie Club
Although Koolies have been around since the 1800’s this is the first register and after 7 years and 530+ registrations it is still in it’s infancy, time will see breeding within the gene pool evolve a style and size of koolie most suited to today and maybe then we can consider a “standard”.
We believe the majority of Koolies have a natural instinct and will not penalize a dog because its owner has not got the skill to bring that ability to the fore or because the dog is not in a situation best suited to it.
The spelling of the name Koolie has come under some discussion, at the inaugural meeting in April 2000 it was discussed at some length, obviously if the club was to be set up properly one spelling would have to be used to run a bank account, be on letterhead and be registered for incorporation.
