RURAL NEWSPAPER IN AUSTRALIA OFFERS CATTLE DOG BITCH AS FIRST PRIZE IN COMPETITION

December 16th 2007 20:35


Readers of The Land newspaper in Australia will after Christmas have the unique chance to win a kelpie cattle dog bitch.
The dog, Capree Glide, is a Working Kelpie Council registered stud bitch, and is bred and trained by respected dog breeder and trainer Chris Stapleton, Capree Kelpie stud, Burraga.
He has bred and trained dogs for 35 years and represented Australia on numerous occasions.
The Land said, “Glide has a lot of natural ability, good cover, balance and presence around stock; she already has sides, stop and is starting to back sheep at just five months of age.

“Chris believes Capree Glide will make a very handy dog, in the paddock and yards, with the ability to work cattle and sheep.”
Capree Glide was sired by Capree Boss, 2001 Australian Yard dog champion.
The Land’s competition to win Capree Glide will start in the newspaper on December 27 issue and will be drawn at the end of January 2008.
Capree Glide will be eight months of age when the competition is drawn and will be available for pick up at the end of February 2008.

Yeah - saw this - looks like a goodie.

The sire is an Australian Champion too.

Will definitely be putting my hand up to try and secure this little girl - who appears to be an excellent worker with outstanding temprament.

Made a call to the paper myself last week and they tell me there's a video of the dog in action about to be put up at www.theland.com.au
