Kier Scott of Herding East Stock Dogs outside of Airdrie, Alberta has paved himself a path in the stock dog industry.
Growing up around working dogs he didn’t get the itch until he found a dog named Sweep from his father.
It didn’t take them long and they were winning trails and Kier was full steam ahead.

Kier and his wife Samantha now host weekly dog nights, clinics, dog sales and a winter series dog trial at Thorlakson arena.
You can follow Herding East on Facebook or look at their website where you’ll see the, Diamond T Cowhorses sponsored, weekly blogs on stockdog training and philosophies.

We truly appreciate Kier and Samantha, they have been huge supporters of our podcast and this episode was a pleasure to produce.

F10 Ultra

Like most people, I've been on the hunt for a high quality saddle pad that is going to fit all types of horses as well as look good and perform under all conditions.

When I was fortunate enough to win cowboy of the day award at a ranch rodeo this fall I was awarded an F10 ultra pad.
I was ecstatic because I was in desperate need of a new pad but it wasn't until after I talked to Dillon at F10 Ultra that I realized what I got my hands on.

They use nothing but the best, sourcing their wool from %100 merino sheep here in Alberta.
F10 rated wool has the highest compression rating and tensile strength rating on the market.
This makes it an easy choice for you and your equine partner. I have been on a long journey to find a pad of this quality and happy to say I stand behind F10 Ultra fine saddle pads.

Sarah Martin is no stranger to dog trialing but we were all the more excited to sit down with her this week after she took home the buckle for the Canadian Cow Dog Futurity. Congrats again!

We covered everything from how she got into stockdogs, her influence on the Australian Shepherd breed and the impact she has had on the students that have gone through her stockdog class for the past 15 years.

If one episode in a day isn’t good enough for ya then here’s a second one.

Join us as we sit down with Frank Willman, a notorious dog man and teamster. Please endure the first ten minutes of bad audio, it does get better. He's a great storyteller with a wealth of experience getting the job done with just his black and white buddies. He was on the first leafy spurge grazing project with sheep in Canada and worked multiple ranched across canada promoting the Border Collie breed to cowboys. He can get any dog with an ounce of instinct to work their heart out for him whether its heading hundreds of cattle or hounds hunting coyotes. Tune in with a dying breed of old school handler, Frank Willman.

This coming Week I will be at agribition in Regina, SK. They are hosting the Canadian Cow Dog Futurity. I am planning on interviewing as many of the handlers as possible as well as some others that will be watching. If you know of someone who will be there that is worth chatting to DM me and I will track them down and corner them! 😄

Hello everyone!

The working dog podcast covers everything about dogs with jobs.

I have noticed a gap between the experts and everyone else trying to learn. I’m attempting to bridge that gap while interviewing the men and women who use their dogs daily and the ones who strictly trial.

We focus on international sheep and cow dog handlers and pick their brains about working dog tips and tricks.

We also talk to the handlers behind the great variety of hunting and service dogs.
