WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE SAID ABOUT NOONBARRA STUD KELPIES

NOONBARRA ALBIE

Ameroo Ned X Noonbarra Bess

Born 16th December 2010

Owned by Laura and David - Tasmania

Just writing to give an update on Albie and tell you how impressed we are with him!
 
I have attached some pictures for you to see him now, he is growing up fast (have another picture of him to send will send separately as my email keeps bouncing back as 2 large)

Albie is such an intelligent dog, he is a pleasure to have around and he continues to amaze us everyday.

He jumps and climbs like you wouldn't believe! He has recently learnt to jump out of his yard with no encouragement from us. He is very eager to please and is showing excellent skills and is working well in the yards. Everywhere we go he gets comments on what a beautiful dog he is. He has such a lovely personality.

We have been having a look at your website and would love to have Albie listed on there under the customer reports on their Noonbarra kelpies. (just want to show him off).
 
Thanks again for our lovely little puppy and if you're ever down this way we would love you to come and visit Albie.

NOONBARRA  FENNA  II

Ameroo Ned X Noonbarra Bess

Born 16th December 2010

Owned by Geoff and Christine  - Victoria.

Geoff and Christine own Noonbarra Max as well as Noonbarra Fenna.

Just a few photos of our fur-kids, the growing ball of energy Fenna and Max ( also growing in girth due to pinching her treats! ) diet in progress!

They get on really well and we think they will be the best of friends, not quite sure that Rosie the cat has the same warm and fuzzy feelings towards Fenna, although no blood has been drawn...... yet.  Fenna's left ear is almost there; but  not quite yet, even though it was originally the first ear to be fully erect.

Both Max and Fenna are perfect advertisements of a Noonbarra kelpie, we are constantly stopped and asked where we we got our dogs when we are out walking...... maybe you should send us some cards!

 Training is progressing although at puppy school Fenna is occasionally distracted, to say the least; but generally she is the star (proud parent speak).

THE ROCKYBAR KELPIES

A GUIDE TO ONE OF THE BEST KNOWN KELPIE STUDS OF THE 20TH CENTURY

We think this book would be an enjoyable read for anyone with even a passing interest in the Kelpie. It would be a great guide for breeders and trainers with information that is impossible to get anywhere else!

The Rockybar Stud, owned by Les Tarrant, was one of the most famous in Australia for half a century and their influence can be seen in Kelpies all over the world today.

Les Tarrant started with Kelpies in the 1930's. He led a life of droving, mustering and working with horses and livestock. In 1950, he set up the Rockybar Kelpie Stud in the far north-western districts of NSW.

We look at some bush characters and old dog men such as the remarkable priest of Goondiwindi, Father McCormack, Stanley McMaster, Frank Scanlon, Stan Collins, and more. We look at the individual dogs in the old Rockybar lines and the more modern lines (after 1980). We have a huge section on Les Tarrant in his own words explaining how to breed Kelpies and the problems and pitfalls to avoid. There is a good chapter of the book dedicated to how to train Kelpies the Rockybar way. Another chapter is on yard work and yard trials.

There are plenty of photographs and some were very hard to obtain. Many (probably most) would never have been seen by the general public before.

Large A4 format. B/W photos throughout. 166 pages.
