What's up dog?
Chimera is essential for me to run my business and do the work I do, along with being a beloved family member. She is a very naturally skilled stock dog with good training and makes for a great demo dog to show dog owners what they could achieve with their own dog. She is unique in that she gets to show people what Kelpies and other working breeds are capable of and how we can help owners achieve their training goals as well as educate the public on how essential working dogs are in the agricultural industry and for improving welfare and safety and handling practices.
