Temperament and personaLIty

A little shy, but friendly with people. Will be a very loyal dog. Bossy with some other bitches, but not all. But can be enough that I need to keep her separate from some of them as she uses standover dominance tactics on them (particularly her sister Rocket and one other bitch I have!). Best suited to a home with males.

Working ability

Well-started on sheep and cattle. NOT fully trained, and limited experience, so still makes mistakes. Still a bit impulsive through keenness and not 100% obedient, but coming along well.

Confident and good balance on sheep. Goes to the head of the mob well if they start moving too fast. Good balance of force and sensitivity.

Rides the bike. 

Likely to have some nose bite and heel bite.

Both parents work full time mustering cattle and educating weaners for David Hart in central Qld and are excellent dogs working in a team. They never work alone as they are always working mobs of 300+ with big distances and heat and do low stress work - not hard biting.

Side commands are coming along well and also knows keep out, come, lie down, hop up.


Video

Sorry, no videos of Star at the moment.

Select the symbol with 3 white stripes and arrow at the top to see the playlist.

Note: I don’t bother to edit my videos, they show all the stupid and wrong things that occur. I also find it’s really difficult to properly work/command/control a dog and see the big picture and anticipate things when trying to video it with my phone and not really watching what’s going on properly, so it’s a long way from ideal. But you don’t just get the edited perfect version that a lot of other people might only show.
