We think these are our most important pages on the whole web site.

REVIEWS AND COMMENTS

Not all Kelpies are the same quality or have the same characteristics. We are very proud to have supplied so many customers with Noonbarra Kelpies that were exactly what they wanted and needed and were suited to their lifestyle. These Kelpies have been carefully bred generation after generation by us to ensure the customer gets the best quality dogs. We feel this is very important and here are pages and pages of comments, photos and discussion by our customers.  We feel very lucky to have so many customers who genuinely care about their dogs and stay in touch to let us know how their dogs are progressing. We always get a thrill out of hearing the positive feedback on Noonbarra Kelpies we have sold.

If you own a Noonbarra Kelpie and would like to have a page here to show friends and family, we'd only be too happy to set it up.

To help readers who want to look at Noonbarra Kelpies that have been sold into similar situations as themselves, we have tried to put a few into categories. This is difficult because some dogs are family companions, do sheep or cattle work, may do obedience and a host of other things. We also tend to get back much more written correspondence and photos from families and small hobby farmers than we do from the big sheep and cattle stations which more often or not just give a phone call every few years. But we know how good the dogs are when the customers return year after year to buy more Noonbarra Kelpies.

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.
