History

The Murray is the only Gundog whose country of development is Australia. Murrays have remained true to type since the 1800s and have been identified by DNA as not related to any other modern breed of dog. Initially used for duck hunting, they were versatile for, flushing and pointing for birds and tracking other game.

 They have been trained for hunting, bomb detection, assistance and search and rescue. A “Jack of all Trades”
