He came from a working cattle farm, where he failed to make the grade as a working dog.

Considering I’ve only had him a few months, I rekon he’s doing OK. 😁 It’s just this defiant period, which I understand children also go through.

what kind of dog is he, again?

Labrador/kelpie cross maybe nobody knows. And that’s “purpley”.
