Stockmans Working Kelpie Stud

Sires as at 2007

Our sires are available to join to outside females fee negotiable.

Nearo Sky 1996- 2007 Blue (Wundurra Wylie X Connley’s Jess) Sky had eye on a few and was a good mustering dog yet he was a tough fearless yard and shed dog, he was a descendant of Scanlons Fred and he reminded me a lot of that outstanding sire, like S Fred, Sky was one of only a few Kelpies who would back cattle. Sky was a top sire and has been used widely in several studs.

Karana Bindi DOB 1998, black & tan (Capree Watch X UD Scarlett) died 20/03/07 Bindi was a great mustering dog with a huge cast, strong on cattle yet had good natural distance off his stock he would back and bark on command, a top sire of outstanding all round workers, used several times by Kirkaldy Kelpie Stud.

Stockmans Clancy DOB 2002, black & tan (Karana Bindi X Avenpart Pepa) Clancy is my “go to” dog, the dog I use when I have a difficult job, if I could have only one dog to work my sheep and cattle I would pick Clancy. He also has a special place after saving me from a bull attack see the feature article page. He has been used as a sire by the Lemnos Kelpie stud.

Stockmans King DOB 2006, black & tan (Porters Twister X Riana Meggie) King is a potential sire he is an interesting pup that is showing all the qualities I am looking for in a working Kelpie.
He shows nice distance off his sheep but will come in when needed and is backing in the shed. He is also keen to work cattle.

Karmala Clyde DOB 2005 red & tan (Driftwood Clyde X Woorivale Spice) is a young dog loaned to us by Jan Lowing to both use as a sire and to give him some flock work. His endeavor to please saw him learn to back and bark on command in two days while we were crutching. In the paddock he has natural distance off his stock and shows good stock handling ability, I believe he will develop into a top dog justifying our faith in his outstanding pedigree.
K Clyde is now under the guidence of Michael Johnston and achieved a score of 87 in his first trial.
Updating Clyde’s progress he scored 94 & 90 at Eugowra to finish 3rd in the novice yard dog trial there, not bad for a young dog bred to be a 3 sheep trial worker. I hope Michael can give him opportunity in utility and 3 sheep trials in the future as I am sure he would excell.

Porters Twister DOB 1998 USA black (De Haro’s Chip X De Haro’s Cat) Twister is a solid black male. He was born in the USA from a background of old Scanlon and Karrawarra blood exported to the USA many years ago. He is a wide casting dog with excellent cover, footwork, balance and medium eye.

Marg has been a top brood bitch for Avenpart producing many top pups that are now working in several countries. Some of Marg’s progeny include A Yoshi, A Yoshena & A Paget.
