Clever canines wow the crowd

Kelpies are known for intelligence and discipline, and the Beloka Kelpies demonstrations certainly prove this to be true.

Each year, the Beloka Kelpies dogs perform at the Seymour Alternative Farming Expo, demonstrating all the precision, intellect and discipline the breed has.

Owner Paul Macphail returns to perform each year as he feels it’s a “good showcase”, with he and the dogs really enjoying the event.

Paul said their demonstration was all about “showing off the abilities of the pups”, particularly how they “work the stock”.

Adult kelpies, as well as the pups, will be performing at the expo.

Paul said he wanted to show the “brilliance” of the breed to the audience through their demonstration as well as entertain the attendees.

During the demonstration, Paul will discuss the uniqueness of the breed and how their training and enrichment needs differ from other breeds.

Families are guaranteed to love watching Paul and his dogs as they go through their moves.

Catch the demonstrations and workshops each day in the Learning Hub and on the oval.
