The same dog, taken on the same day.

Outline's Molotov Cocktail - Fizz

One job she knows and needs no input to do after I gave her the initial go ahead to gather cattle.

One job where I chose to direct her some, and she's just as happy and willing to do both.

Having a dog who will work with you as well as having the innate skills to recognize a job and do it with little input is such a valuable asset no matter the size of the job.

Meet Audie

Wayout's n YBR The Audacity (Sire: Outline's New Beginnings (Bennie - video available) x Dam: Wayout's Fiddle Dee Dee (Fern))

Audie was born 7-24-22, and he's being offered as a started stock dog.

Audie works sheep, goats or cattle. He's friendly and outgoing (his ACD maturity modules are on order �� ). Audie gets along well with other dogs and is a biddable, go with the flow kind of guy. Crate trained, house trained (may need reminders in a new place), and good in a kennel. He doesn't dig or challenge fences. He travels well and works the same in different locations. Great leash manners and off leash manners, but will need some reminders as he is still a teenager. He is food motivated and likes toys. He should fit into any family, but let's get down to the nitty gritty of how he works.

Audie has a lot of natural gather to him. He wants to get around stock, balance and bring them. He is started on inside flanks and driving (when he's solid on them his price will increase). Audie has a stop, send in both directions, a general "get around" command, call off, and push command, and he knows how to remain on a place if he isn't being used. He is not strictly a push dog, nor is he strictly a heel dog. Audie bites head, heel, and front foot. When he is confident in the job and his ability to handle it he is a quiet worker. With excitement or if he is challenged hard by the stock he does bark, but it is not constant and he will back it up with a bite. Audie is fair to his stock and doesn't bite for no reason. He does like to work in close, and wears on stock to keep them moving. He has been worked with other dogs, he's been around horses and been worked horseback, and from a 4x4. This guy has traveled. He made a trip out to Wyoming and got to experience range yearlings. He put in long miles and has plenty of gas to do it day in and day out.

Audie is not a stand alone pair dog. He works best on yearlings, or dry cattle. He could potentially work pairs with another dog. He can work large groups or small groups, but if having to dog break cattle, he needs to be able to win, so smaller groups or a handler who can back him up would work best for that. Audie does well on sheep and goats. He is familiar with penning, pen work, arena sized areas and pasture. He has had an opportunity to load a trailer. As many small jobs as I could put him on, I have done.

He is ready to go to work with somebody and put the miles in. He is a started dog, so he needs some help, and some reminding. When all else fails, if he doesn't know what you're asking, he will try to balance off and bring your stock.

Audie would do well on a small or large farm, a yearling operation, feed lot, custom grazing, rotational grazing farm, or even in a beginner arena trial home. He is a forgiving dog, and has lots of try, so I feel he would be a good dog for someone to get their feet wet with AHBA/ASCA/AKC trialing if they wanted to. He's at the point in his training you can take him in any direction you want.

Buyers will be screened in order to place Audie in a home/job where he will excel. Anyone planning to use him on stock will need to come pick him up in Texas and plan on spending a couple days working with Audie and learning how to use him. Stock dogs are often limited by us and if you have never used a dog before it is not always an intuitive process. Lifetime assistance and support is part of this deal. I want you to be successful and for Audie to be an asset to your operation.

Here's the answer to the main question: 3️⃣5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ firm

Audie is fully UTD on vaccinations, vet care, and on heartworm prevention. He is intact, AKC registered, and microchipped. Obligate clear on a genetic panel and BAER Normal

Attached are a couple of pictures of Audie and below are links to his entire training playlist with some selections picked out to give an example of how he works in different situations.

A - vailable to an active pet/casual farm/ACD savvy home.

Reckon is a year and a half old female from a purpose bred litter. She was raised well and has a strong foundation in obedience/manners/husbandry. She is sweet and funny with an unmatched sense of humor. Reckon shows interest in livestock, but is not being sold as a working dog. She would potentially make a good track dog for club lambs/goats, or could be used to push cattle along on a small farm, but doesn't show sustained, dedicated interest in controlling livestock on a level that would put her into a serious working position. Videos of her livestock experience and skills are available.

Reckon is a typical cattle dog bi*ch. You will need to earn her respect. Reckon thinks highly of herself and she will absolutely take advantage of an owner who is ok with bending the rules. She is friendly and uses her charm to win you over, then tells you how she thinks life should go. Think of the movie, Jurassic Park, you know, where the velociraptors test the 10,000 volt fence just to be sure its still working. That's Reckon.

Reckon likes toys, she is food motivated, crate trained, house trained, walks well on a leash. She's a busy girl. She likes to move it, move it. She would love an active hiking/running/biking home, or a home where she is able to move her body daily and come in and chill with family in the evening. She would also make a great self-appointed truck guardian and bonded buddy to anyone willing to put in the work to earn her respect. Reckon is truly old school in that she wants a purpose and for someone to tell her what that purpose is. Handing out treats and toys and doting on her doesn't fulfill her needs.

Structure and leadership are what Reckon thrives with. She will fit in and adjust to any lifestyle if there is leadership and she is able to use her mind and body.

Reckon is forward with other dogs, but again, with leadership she has been able to integrate with other adult dogs.

If you are looking for a 100% true to form Australian Cattle Dog, the deeply dedicated, not for everyone type of dog, inquire about Reckon by PM or email at [email protected].

Reckon's rehoming fee is reasonable and finding the right home for her is our main motivation. She will be spayed and she is UTD on all veterinary care and on monthly heartworm prevention.

Toss - Outline's Get Tossed dog breaking a set in the pasture.

The cattle took off behind the pond, so I sent him and trusted him.

That's a 24 acre pasture, and a two year old dog who handled it on his own.

After we got them back up near the pens, we covered the escapes until they were more cooperative and then repenned them.

11/11/2023

Located in Northeast TX (Texarkana)

B-r-o-k-e. That's why I'm s-elling. These ewes don't make the dog work for it any more and I don't usually hang onto super broke stock. They are honest, will not follow a person without dog influence, but they know when the dog has them under control and comply easily.

Purple ear tags (born in 2022), #'s 22, 29, 31, 34 dorper/katahdin cross ewes. Should be bred to either a purebred white dorper OR a black/white katahdin dorper ram. Rams have been in with the flock since September.

Notice to our clients regarding the Victor Dog Food Recall

According to Victor they had two instances of possible Salmonella contamination in the Beef and Rice and High Pro formulas. They are voluntarily recalling every bag of Victor that expires prior to 10/31/2024

We will temporarily be switching all of our dogs and client dogs to Diamond Hi-Energy as it still meets our nutritional needs, and is pea, flax, phytoestrogen free but is still grain inclusive.

Dog food recalls happen, and in our opinion, it is better that the company is safe and over corrects than "lets it slide". Victor plans to shut down production, clean/disinfect and will start producing food again after inspection.

Enjoy this picture of a puppy eating something he shouldn't :)

Emails have gone out to my list.

If you'd like to be added to the list for future puppy announcements, or for first notification on any available started dogs/ older puppies available, please drop your email below or send a PM.

I am super excited to announce this one. This is a first time cross for these two, but similar crosses have been done. This pedigree is known to cross well.

🤞🤞🤞 For some little red/blue pups who bite head and heel and might have a bit of upright eye/style.

PM's Welcome, or Email [email protected]

Outline's Get Tossed

This set's first time to move through this gate. Toss had to work to keep them together, maintaining pressure to keep them from leaving the right place, but allowing them time to think and choose a leader to make the first movement.

Sharing this for our friends at AY Stockdogs

I've seen Tuna at work and he's the real deal. Contact Annie at AY Stockdogs if you're interested in a broke/finished dog.

--------

For those of you who contact me for started dogs, check this dog out, check out the price (it's written out in the ad), look at his videos. A good dog is worth what is being asked.

No, this isn't an ACD. Dogs are priced according to the skill level, training, experience, and based on the individual dog's temperament. It is an investment, but can save you hundreds on day money or hiring someone to catch your cattle.

Started/finished heelers come up for sale rarely, but the goal is to offer some nicely started dogs available in the next year. In the mean time, Tuna would fit into most operations and situations, he's proven himself on the job and is easy to be around.

Video from our jaunt to Missouri. These calves were freshly weaned. I was told they had not been worked except to pull them off their mamas who were penned nearby. This is the 3rd time we had worked them. The first two times were quite similar, maybe a couple instances where Toss had to bite a nose on a curious calf, and a couple of tough moments holding pressure along the fence with a calf on one side and a snorting mama on the other.

This video isn't exciting. Well, it is if you know what you're looking at. Toss and I were able to convince the weaners to respect a dog, not run the fence, and to move calmly without running back to mama.

Toss is Outline's Get Tossed (Rye x Fizz)

What is it people say about heelers and fences?🤔 A good dog makes for good cattle.

I'll take another moment to plug the clinic coming up. Hosted by Jacqueline Tinker at her beautiful Arcadia Ranch in Frost, TX, we will be doing a clinic all about cattle. How to use a dog to gentle your cattle. This is for the ranchers, the people who want to use their dog, but need some help on exactly how to manage a dog when the cattle aren't familiar with dogs.

Last I heard, Jackie still had a spot or two open.

Seems like I've spent very little time at home lately.

Thanks to Sarah Williams Stellar Farms & Stockdogs for this video of Cheese - Outline's Laughing Cow at the Billie Richardson clinic hosted by Jacqueline Tinker.

We had a blast learning and working.

An official announcement will be made when it's confirmed, but Cheese might have some little cheese curds in the making.

In the meantime, enjoy this clinic video of her on goats.

Some more video from Wyoming. Gathering cattle with the AY Stockdog crew. We were all starting to come together with our groups of cattle, so you'll see multiple dogs and people on horses.

In the beginning you can see Toss picking his way through some cactus. They have to learn quick what not to step on and how to pick the best path.

The two ACDs in the video are Outline's Get Tossed and Outline's Laughing Cow

Outline's What the Chuck *HIC *FDC *New herding instinct certificate and farm dog certificate titles this weekend! I can't brag on this pair enough! All in one weekend Chuck finished two new titles as well as entered the show ring for the first time! Chuck was pulled out in the group in consideration for placements on Saturday. All of this wouldn't be possible if not for the time and dedication of his owner Anisha! She is jumping head first into all the things and giving Chuck a taste for it all. Thank you, again! Chuck is a Rye x Reese pup, born 5-27-21

Loading up a set. Some push, a lot of patience.

#foundations

Furthering my education and attending clinics and lessons for myself is a part of what I do. I attend a handful of clinics a year in order to improve my own training, get an outside opinion, and learn new tricks or methods to work with dogs. When I do attend clinics I usually work my own dogs, but my client dogs come along for the ride. Traveling and working on communication and obedience in a new and busy location really does add to their education and understanding. Video is of Lady working on obedience and communication while on the road with me, with the added distraction of people, dogs, and stock work going on.

Blue heeler penning calves in the barn

So nice to be able to set a line and give the dog no further instruction and let them handle the job. I was slow to pull out the camera, but here is a few seconds of Fizz (Outline's Molotov Cocktail) penning the new calves in the barn.
