We sincerely apologize for the lack of communication over the past few weeks. Unfortunately, during our last Beginners Herding Day, Geoff was involved in an accident and is currently in hospital. The good news is that he’s on the mend and expected to make a full recovery and discharged from hospital soon.

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the wonderful people who stayed with us that afternoon and helped until the ambulance arrived. We truly appreciate your support. We also apologize for cutting the day short and will make it up to everyone affected.

Rest assured, Geoff is recovering well, and our training sessions will be back up and running soon. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

The photo attached is our latest addition to the Digger’s family which hopefully you’ll meet soon.

Warm regards,
David.

My name is ... APOLLO!

S*x: Male
Age: 2 Years
Breed: Cattle Dog Mix
Ref: 102549

Apollo has been at the animal shelter since 19/08/2024.

Apollo is a delightful dog with a lovable personality and a zest for life!

From his wagging tail to his joyful demeanour, Apollo brings happiness wherever he goes. This sweet boy is sure to capture your heart with his spirited nature and affectionate ways.

Active and playful, Apollo thrives on long walks and play sessions. Whether it's a game of fetch in the park or a run through the yard, he's always up for an adventure.

This gorgeous boy is also pretty smart and eager to please! Apollo would benefit greatly from training to keep his bright mind busy and engaged.

Apollo isn't just about high energy and fun; he's also a cuddle enthusiast! He cherishes every opportunity to receive pats, belly rubs, and all the affection and attention he can get. After a day full of activities, Apollo loves nothing more than snuggling up with his humans friends.

Apollo being such a good boy is also quite well toilet trained! However Apollo needs a home with secure fencing to keep him safe.

He's shown potential to get along with other dogs, but a meet and greet is essential to ensure everyone will be the best of friends.

If you're searching for a loyal companion who will bring joy, love, and plenty of playful moments to your life, look no further than Apollo!

Adopt Me!

Amazing…

"I Will"

I will outrun you,
and I will outwit you
I will gamble my life just to beat you
Each chance you take - I will be there.
Let us dance, silly sheep - if you dare!

Recently there was a post by a “dog trainer” circulating showing 3 dogs off lead around some stock in open paddocks. She was boasting about how good her dogs were trained, obviously trying to drum up some business.
I actually don’t believe there are dogs trained well enough to be 100% reliable off lead around stock like cattle and sheep. Especially 3 dogs at once with unknown stock….anything can happen.
There is a simple answer - Keep your dogs on lead.
This video is in the UK but I’ve seen and have been victim to people doing the same thing here in Australia.

They even remember different dogs over time.

The humble sheep might be considered by some as the perfect embodiment of docility. But they are not mundane mindless mammals — not in the slightest.
