The Kangaroo Dog is a purpose-bred Australian sighthound that is considered a "type" of dog rather than a purebred.

However there is some discussion among a small group of hunters on starting a working registry which focuses on the working ability of these dogs rather than solely on their looks.

like a dog looking for a place to sleep in,
listen to it growling.”
