Definitions

  1. an Australian sheepdog with pointed ears

Word origin

Possibly from Scottish Gaelic cailpeach or colpach, meaning "colt".

Used in a sentence

  • He was a boy in form, and an antediluvian in feature. Some thought he was a mule, between a Jew and an ape; some a wizard, some a kelpie, or a fairy, but most of all, that he was really and truly a Brownie.
  • There was no sound but the endless noise of forest and river, and the sleep-whimper of his kelpie.
  • Gulls scatter before the blur of my insane kelpie.
