Wow that was great fun to watch! Love seeing dogs showing off their breed instincts. Love when the one tried to sneak around and Max cut him off, lol. I can tell he is very happy doing his job. :)
I would be interested to see him competeing against the best border collies in England on the trial ground......and beating them! Not many Kelpies could say they have done that. Good all round farm dog though.
Hello, I have two dogs, one cat, and one mouse. My cats name is Cookie (girl), my mouse' name is Coco (boy) and I have two dogs, Simbah (a wheaten border collie) and Malcolm (a red and tan kelpie). They are both boys. I should post a video of them on YouTube! :-)
Thanks for your comments! I have a friend who lives near Cowra that is sending another dog and bitch of Max's quality early 2011, he keeps me upto date with the sales,trials etc, would be good to come over though! Maybe one day!
you got a really good dog there, Kelpies are great animals and absolute amazing workers, ours are worth 2 to 3 people each. If you want to see something really amazing travel to a small town in Australia called Casterton where they have a sale every year for working dogs. The price they get for some of these dogs is amazing but then you are buying a loyal hard working dog with cheap running costs, worth their wait in gold.
WOW...amazing work!!..I have one border collie..and two kelpie collie cross's..was wondering if you have any training techniques for a unique situation..
@foxforce12001 I have one Border Collie as well! Except he is a wheaten colour and I also have one Kelpie except he is a red and tan colour though... The Kelpie is called Malcolm and the Border Collie is called Simbah (because he looks like a Lion). Simbah came from Kendell and Malcolm came from Dubbo. They are both Aussies... LIKE ME!
Max is great!!!! The pommie needs work on his commands but, "push up" come on.... "PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH!!!!" Max is keeping them all in tact, but that's it, he's not getting the sufficient encouragement to PUSH PUSH PUSH!
Hi, thanks for that! You may not be able to see in the video but the mobile Prattley yard goes from double to single file, If Max is encouraged to push harder the sheep will stall at this point and not be able to move! That is why he is working like he is!

Fascinating to watch Max's skill! It looked like he took some kicks there. Not a cushy dog job, for sure. Brilliant!

Incredible. o.o I'm no expert on dogs doing herding, but I can see just as plainly that this dog excels at what he does.

I´m starting a Kelpie breeding in Brazil too.

Good stuff, I just picked up a few new Kelpies from Murringo yesterday. Do you train them yourself?
