These fantastic Shields organised by Dan Camilleri are up for grabs this year for Utility Triallers to make their Utility events count and get their name on these prestigious Shields, sponsored generously by other handlers.
Such a great idea and giving utility trialling the recognition it deserves 🤠

Sly’s had a few career changes already —starting in bite work, moving into detection, and now stepping into the role she was always destined for - stock work.

She’s taken to it with natural ability and has progressed at an incredible rate. Today was her first exposure to some quiet cattle 🐂

It’s exciting to watch instinct take over and see her confidence grow with every session.

Saturday evening done right. ☕🐾

The kids are putting in the work, lead training the next generation of pups, while a few of the older dogs are getting their exercise in on the treadmills and Pilbara Trick playing overseer.

Meanwhile, I’m supervising from a safe distance with a coffee in hand 😁

Good dogs aren’t born, they’re developed from good genetics — and it’s pretty special watching the kids learn patience, responsibility and stockmanship along the way.

If you’re chasing a handy young bitch with the ability to hold her own and the genetics to back it up, keep your eyes on Hooked on Soul at the Casterton Working Dog Auction.

Bred with purpose and showing plenty of promise, she’s one worth serious consideration.

🏆 The NSW Utility Point Score is now well underway, following the completion of the Eugowra Utility Trial.

Great to see new dogs and handlers stepping into the mix — building depth and strengthening the competition right from the start.

Looking forward to seeing how the leaderboard unfolds from here.

Introducing – Hooked on Vision 🐾
(Eveready J x Milburn Sally VI)

Another one we’re proud to call a keeper.

This pup stood out early and hasn’t missed a beat since — full of presence, strong attitude, and showing the type of traits we value at this stage.

Excited to see how this guy continues to develop💥🐕

** Possibly another male from this litter may be available

Proud (yet bittersweet) to see our Belgian Malinois Max, move on to his next job — secured for development in New Zealand.

Max has shown serious drive, brains, and attitude from day one, and it’s good to see him recognised for what he is.

Never easy letting one like this go, but he’s exactly where he needs to be.

Looking forward to watching his progress
