Addy’s Elsie
First run on cattle this morning and she stepped up in a big way.
Scoring a 91, Andrew and Elsie showed exactly what they’ve been quietly building.
She was purchased by Jay Hurlock at last year’s Ray White Livestock Rockhampton Working Dog Sale and at just 16 months old, she’s still very young.
She’s by 7J Ike (USA), owned by Slash D Stockdogs, and out of Tomana Spice. Bred by Marty Addy of Addy’s Working Dogs, and owned by Jay Hurlock.
Andrew has had her since she was around 5 months old and has just gone about bringing her along quietly — no fuss, no shortcuts, just putting the right foundation into her.
She’s a silent worker with a real presence on her stock, and today she backed that up when it counted.
Still plenty ahead of her, but we couldn’t be prouder of how she handled herself.
A good start for a young dog.
