| McCallum's Chuck, McCallum's Made X McCallum's Star Chucks first look at 13 weeks, he is a free moving pup, looks for the head and seems able to manage his stock without over work. McCallums Star, his dam, was a powerful female with plenty of vigour and has made a great brood bitch. |
| McCallum's Shades, McCallum's Cloud X McCallum's Ellie This is Shades second look at 15 weeks, he is a calm pup but blocks hard. He does not wait for movement but compels the stock to move off him. His sire,McCallums Cloud is a hard dog ,great bites both ends, but is also manageable. His Dam, McCallums Ellie is a natural thinking bitch, the McCallum's Boss X McCallum's Bruce, both deceased, mating produced some of the best all round working cowdogs ever. |

This pup was stranded by flood waters and was
late arriving here. l put him down for his first
evaluation a few weeks later than l normally do.
We just watch to see his intent and if he has an
approach that will suit cow work , Tony

This 12 year old dog below is the pup to the lefts grandsire
on both sides. Here l saw some of my cattle had got
through a fence . They had swum the river and were
heading up a track to the neighbors. l needed him to stop
them, bring them back and headed to the right. From there
l could go to a low point and bring them back across the
river
