Outlaw Working Dog Stud is located on our property in Pearsondale, just outside the town of Sale in Victoria, Australia. We raise Hereford Cattle for the Australian Beef industry. In addition we keep a small flock of around 300 Dorper and Dorper Cross sheep mainly to train the dogs with and sell a few lambs. The Kelpies and Border Collies are an integral part of everyday life on the property and are used daily. Although we still use the remaining Kelpies in daily work we no longer breed them due to the many health issues in the Kelpie breed for which there are no DNA tests currently available. For further information see my Kelpie website at www.australiankelpie.com.
Our Border Collies are all ISDS registered and are dogs we have imported from Ireland or offspring of these imported dogs. We have imported some of the best available bloodlines in the world. All our breeding dogs are hip scored and DNA tested for CEA, TNS and CL status. We strive to produce high drive, genetically healthy, ISDS Working Border Collies.
We do not cross our Collies with Australian Kelpies or non-registered dogs. We have pups for sale occasionally. All pups are sold under a breeder’s contract specific to the requirements of the individual pup. Our For Sale page has more information. This contract protects the buyer and us as the Breeders and is clearly written with the best interest and welfare of the dog in mind. WE NO LONGER SELL ANY DOG WITHOUT A WRITTEN CONTRACT. A copy of the contract can be e-mailed to serious buyers on request.
All dogs are fed a high quality dry food and a version of the BARF (Bones and Raw Food) Diet. This includes raw chicken, raw beef and lamb, bones and an assortment of vegetables, fruit and vitamins. We believe that raw food is an important part of a healthy canine diet. We make our own BARF food from locally sourced meat, vegies and fruit. Dogs are routinely vaccinated, wormed and kept on heartworm preventative. All dogs are micro-chipped. They are crate broke, Ute broke, broke to tie and handled three times a day. Pups are well socialised and exposed to stock from an early age. We keep all dogs in individual kennel runs and do not chain our dogs. The kennels are spacious with indoor/outdoor access. Heaters in winter and misters in summer heat are provided to assure maximum comfort for the dogs.
It is the standard policy of Outlaw Stud to not sell Working Kelpies or Working Border Collies to pet or agility homes. We have found that the high drive breeding of these dogs will not suit the average backyard pet owner. Too many Working Dogs end up in shelters or dumped because they were sold to the wrong home. You can find a breeder to sell you a Working Kelpie or Collie as a pet, but they will not want to know you once the pup
becomes destructive or aggressive due to lack of work on livestock. OCCASIONALLY
we will have a dog or bitch that shows no interest in stock and is suitable to be sold as a pet. If available they are posted under the Border Collies For Sale section.
It is also the belief of Outlaw Stud that not all Kelpies and Border Collies are suitable to be bred. Sometimes we have trained and started dogs for sale that are sold as neutered or spayed animals. These dogs are sound but for one reason or another they would not be
outstanding sires or dams. If you are looking for a good working dog and are not interested in breeding or specific bloodlines, perhaps one of these would suit your needs.
Breeding animals are dogs or bitches that we would consider breeding to ourselves. These dogs will be more expensive, but are usually sold to someone looking for specific lines. We are extremely concerned with the genetic problems in the Border Collie and are making every effort to screen dogs prior to breeding.
If you are interested in a working pup, dog or bitch from Outlaw Stud please Contact Us. We screen potential owners carefully as the best interests of the dogs are first and foremost. Please keep in mind that we have gone to a great deal of expense, time and research to
import our dogs. Australia’s new quarantine restrictions have made it even harder to acquire new bloodlines. Be aware that all these factors will be reflected in the price of the dog. We only entertain serious buyers that realise the value in the bloodlines we have imported and will do the right thing by the dog.
